Communication/fi

On olemassa useita tapoja ottaa yhteyttä muihin MediaWiki-käyttäjiin, tai saada välitöntä apua. Suositellut menetelmät listataan tässä.

Laskeutuminen
Nämä ovat hyviä alkuvinkkejä:


 * Register and add some info about yourself in your user page.
 * Follow the News and our social media channels.
 * Subscribe to wikitech-announce to receive email notifications about new activities.
 * Join IRC channel and perhaps more.


 * Make sure you have an email confirmed and email notifications enabled in your mediawiki.org preferences.
 * "Watch" (click the star icon of) the pages you want to follow and perhaps contribute to.
 * All the better if you find a MediaWiki Group that matches your location or interests!

Keskustelu
#mediawiki kuuluu nettiin irc.freenode.net ja on kellonympäri IRC-kanava tosiaikaiseen yhteydenpitoon. If you don't have an IRC client, use web chat.


 * Please read the before asking.
 * State your problem immediately and wait for a response. Don't ask "is there anyone here" or "can someone help me". This is normal IRC etiquette and allows participants to multitask effectively.
 * Expect to wait for some time for an initial response, especially in off-peak times. Despite this, out of courtesy for the volunteer who is helping you, try to answer their questions promptly.

Jos et saa vastausta, se voi tarkoittaa monta eri asiaa:


 * Nobody was around at the time of day you chose. If the channel is generally quiet, come back later.
 * You're asking a question which nobody knows the answer to, or which requires a lot of work to answer.
 * You're asking a question which is in the, the , the , or other , and the volunteers in the channel feel it would be best if you found it yourself.

Questions relating to problems with your particular installation of MediaWiki are generally best answered on IRC, since they often require a back-and-forth exchange to isolate the problem, which is tedious when performed on the mailing lists.

Postituslistat
There are several available. The recommended ones are:


 * mediawiki-l (tai Gmanen kautta) (tai nyyssienlukijasi kautta) on vilkas-liikenteinen postituslista jossa voi saada tukea kysymällä.
 * wikitech-l (tai Gmanen kautta) (tai nyyssinlukijalla) on vilkasliikenteinen postituslista, jossa skriptien kehitystä koordinoidaan.
 * mediawiki-ilmoitukset (tai Gmanen kautta) (tai nyyssinlukijalla) on vähäliikenteinen lista ilmoituksille uusista MediaWiki releaseista ja turvallisuuspäivityksistä (kaikki viestit menevät myös mediawiki-l listalle).

Please check the archives first! All three lists are also available through Gmane which provides access as newsgroups or in various web-based formats, and includes its own archives and archive search.

Koskien apua MediaWiki-ohjelmiston kanssa
There is no "official" forum or discussion board, but there are some unofficial ones, for instance on StackExchange. See also the MediaWiki Developers Facebook group.

Voit myös kirjata tukeen liittyviä kysymyksiä Project:Support desk sivulla, vaikkakin tämä on niukemman väen syynissä kuin muut avunlähteet, joita tällä sivulla on listattu.
