MediaWiki群組在特定的主題和地理範圍之內，組織開放原始碼社群的活動。 他們是維基媒體使用者群組，在MediaWiki的文章脈絡中商定了一個協調的層次。 因此，他們擴展了維基媒體基金會在活動、培訓、推廣、和其他有益於維基百科、維基媒體運動和MediaWiki軟體的技術活動的能力。
MediaWiki 群組開放給不同專業和專業程度的成員。 內容是越豐富、越多元越好。 我們也歡迎願意貢獻與學習的非技術使用者！所有群組都承諾遵守友善空間政策。
MediaWiki群組可以請求支援以各種形式向維基媒體基金會和分會請求支援。
Thematic groups
Thematic MediaWiki groups collaborate with their logical counterparts in the wider FLOSS community. They are global groups, collaborating online.
- They are in touch with communities within the same focus.
- They participate in events of the same topic.
- They promote related training and outreach activities.
- They help improving the related documentation in wikimedia.org.
- They collaborate with the related development teams.
- Eventually some of them meet at Wikimania.
Local groups
Local MediaWiki groups collaborate with Wikimedia chapters, See also Wikipedia meetups and other local communities related with Wikimedia, free software, free culture... Their focus consists in face to face activities:
- Organization of local events: meetups, training, hackfests... These events adhere to the WMF Friendly space policy.
- Participation in events held in their area.
- Distribution of merchandising.
- Promotion of local contributors to global MediaWiki and Wikimedia activities.
Also for non-English speaking groups:
- Localization of documentation and software following translatewiki.net processes.
Local groups must be really local. Starting points like e.g. Recife, Munich or Saint Petersburg are better than Brazil, Germany or Russia. If you miss a channel for regional coordination then consider requesting the creation of a regional mailing list and/or local mailing list.
Creating a group
You don't need anyone to propose a group, just yourself. To get it approved you must have at least three contributors.
Check Groups/Proposals for more details to create your MediaWiki group.
