Communication/oc

I a mantun biais de contactar los autres utilizaires de MediaWiki, o de demandar d'ajuda.

Basics
Es çò que la màger part dels contributors MediaWiki fan al moment de lor primièra jornada :


 * Inscrivissètz-vos e apondètz d'informacions sus vos-meteis dins vòstra pagina d'utilizaire.
 * Seguissètz las Nòvas e nòstres canals de mèdias socials.
 * Check the newsletters that you can subscribe to.
 * Jónher lo canal IRC $mediawiki-irc (en anglés unicament) e benlèu mai.
 * S'assegurar qu'avètz un corrièl confirmat e las notificacions per corrièl d'activadas dins vòstras preferéncias mediawiki.org.
 * "Agachar" (clicar sus l'icòna en forma d'estela) las paginas que volètz seguir e sus las qualas, benlèu, volètz contribuir.
 * Çò melhor es de trobar un grop MediaWiki que correspond a vòstre luòc d'abitacion o vòstres interèsses!
 * Check the FAQ, the help, the manual, or other documentation.

Messatjariá instantanèa (Chat)

 * [ #mediawiki] sus irc.freenode.net es lo canal per la discussion en temps real. S'avètz pas cap d'abonament IRC, utilizatz [ web chat].


 * 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:

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.
 * 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.

Listas de difusion
There are several available. The recommended ones are:


 * mediawiki-l (o via Gmane) (o via your newsreader) es la lista de naut debit de difusion pel supòrt.
 * wikitech-l (o via Gmane) (o via your newsreader) es la lista de naut debit de difusion ont lo desvolopament dels escripts es coordenat.
 * mediawiki-announce (o via Gmane) (o via your newsreader) es una lista de feble debit de difusion per l'anonci de las novèlas versions de MediaWiki e de las mesas a jorn de seguretat (totes los messatges son tanben difusats sus la lista mediawiki-l).
 * wikitech-ambassadors Announcements about upcoming changes on Wikimedia websites. This list is primarily aimed at end users of Wikimedia wikis, not the MediaWiki software in general.

Mercé de consultar los archius abans de redigir una requèsta ! Las tres listas son accessiblas dempuèi Gmane que permet un accès als bulletins de nòvas (newsgroups), fluxes RSS, o divèrses formats web, e incluís sos pròpris archius e son motor de recèrca.
