Communication/fr

Il y a plusieurs moyens de contacter les autres utilisateurs de MediaWiki, ou de demander de l'aide. Les différentes possibilités sont listées ci-dessous.

Landing
This is what most MediaWiki contributors do in their first day:


 * Register and add some info about yourself in your user page.
 * Follow the News and our social media channels.
 * Subscribe to mediawiki-l mailing list and perhaps more.
 * 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!

Chat
#mediawiki on irc.freenode.net is the around-the-clock IRC channel for realtime communication. If you don't have an IRC client, use web chat.


 * Please read the FAQ 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.

If you don't get an answer, this could mean one of a number of things:


 * 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 FAQ, the help, the manual, or other documentation, 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.

Listes de diffusion
There are several mailing lists available. The recommended ones are:


 * mediawiki-l (ou via Gmane) (ou via your newsreader) est la liste à haut débit de diffusion pour le support.
 * wikitech-l (ou via Gmane) (ou via your newsreader) est la liste à haut débit de diffusion où le développement des scripts est coordonné.
 * mediawiki-announce (ou via Gmane) (ou via your newsreader) est une liste à faible débit de diffusion pour l'annonce des nouvelles versions de MediaWiki et des mises à jour de sécurité (tous les messages sont également diffusés sur la liste mediawiki-l).

Prière de bien vouloir consulter les archives avant de rédiger une requête! Les trois listes sont accessibles depuis Gmane qui permet un accès aux bulletins de nouvelles (newsgroups), flux RSS, ou divers formats web, et inclue ses propres archives et son moteur de recherche.

Sites Webs

 * Le Meta-Wiki de Wikimedia était l'endroit où les documents étaient administrés et les propositions discutées avant la création de ce site. Un certain nombre de documents y sont encore présent dans l'attente de leur migration.
 * Bugzilla est l'endroit où les demandes d'extensions et les rapports d'erreurs (bugs) sont envoyés et répertoriés.

Aide sur le logiciel MediaWiki
There is no "official" forum or discussion board, but there are some private ones, e.g. mwusers.com and the MediaWiki Developers Facebook group.

You can also post support questions at Project:Support desk, though this is less frequented than the other sources of help listed on this page.
