Quick recommendations
- Be precise
- Be clear: explain how to reproduce the problem, step by step, so others can reproduce the bug, or understand the request.
- Include only one problem per task
- Include any relevant links and examples
איידער איר טוט עפעס
צי קענט איר רעפראדוצירן די פֿראגע?
Try to reproduce your bug using a recent version of the software, to see whether it has already been fixed. If the bug is on a wiki site like Wikipedia, you could try testing the latest software version on test2.wikipedia.org.
Has someone else already reported the issue?
Use the search box of Wikimedia's bugtracker to see if your bug has already been reported, or the feature requested. You can also perform more advanced searches on the advanced search page.
If you are unsure whether a bug has already been reported, you should report the bug. It is better to have duplicate bugs than it is to have unreported bugs.
Reporting a new bug or feature request
If you have faced a bug in a recent version and no one else appears to have reported it, then:

באריכטן א JavaScript פֿעלער

When you encounter a bug that may be related to JavaScript, do your best to identify error messages and copy them into the bug report.
It's especially important to provide all the information you have, because even the system administrators will have zero access to any error log. If you are unsure whether a feature you are using is based on JavaScript, try disabling JavaScript.
It's always helpful to include a screenshot with your report. It's often the easiest way to identify which feature you're talking about, and can often provide information which can help narrow down the error. Take care to hide any information you don't want to share, like other open browsers tabs or minimised chat windows.
