 Dear, Welcome to MediaWiki.org !

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

Hope that helps, --MZMcBride (talk) 05:17, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

user page from meta
Hi. FYI, your meta user page would be displayed here if your actual user page were deleted (not just moved/blanked). If you would like that done let me (or any sysop) know. --Clump (talk) 21:11, 19 January 2021 (UTC) Thanks! I requested a deletion here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Synchbot#Ottomata_(migrate_to_global_user_page)
