Welcome to MediaWiki.org!
 Dear, Welcome to MediaWiki.org !

Yes, Welcome! This site is dedicated to the documentation of the MediaWiki software, the software behind many wikis, including that of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Foundation projects.

Please, take a look at the following pages. They might prove useful to you as a newcomer here:
 * Project:About
 * How does MediaWiki work?
 * Help:Editing pages
 * Help:Navigation
 * Manual:FAQ

If you have any questions, please ask me on my talk page. Once again, welcome, and I hope you quickly feel comfortable here, and find this site a beneficial documentation of the MediaWiki software. Thanks, and regards,   Hazard-SJ  ±  . Received at 00:20, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

Hello Tigel! :) I found my talk page deleted with reason "Test Page". Was I the one who tested it or was it someone else who used my talk page as sandbox? Thanks, RickyB98 (talk) 17:37, 15 September 2013 (UTC).


 * Hi. It was an IP-address that wrote some random letters. Typical test edit. -- Tegel (talk) 17:42, 15 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Okay, thanks then :) RickyB98 (talk) 10:46, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Documentation of radio buttons and tick boxes
How is the documentation of these 'out of scope'?

It says that the scope is the documentation of mediawiki.

If these had been documented in the right place, not hidden in 'tips' it would have saved me several hours work. Surely saving other people several hours work in using mediawiki is within scope.

 * Hi. Yes, the wiki is for documentation of Mediawiki software. A page with just an external link is not enough. For instance tables is documented here: Help:Tables. Other help-pages can be found here: Help:Contents. There you can see how the help pages is done and you can have them as a base when you create new pages. -- Tegel (talk) 09:28, 4 August 2014 (UTC)


 * OK, I understand. I'll put a recommendation to look at the tip in the page itself instead.

"Tegel": Why on earth have you deleted the page I just created, for the CEMA apartment in Algiers? It is not "Spam," but in fact an important resource for scholars studying in Algeria. Please restore it, or tell me how I can do so. LY


 * Even if it's not spam it's off-topic material for this wiki. This wiki is for documentation of the Mediawiki software, and nothing else. You have to get a normal web page instead. Have you asked your Internet Service Provider? -- Tegel (talk) 19:54, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

Got it, wasn't aware. Thought it was an open-use wiki. Thanks. LY
