Welcome to mediawiki-l. This mailing list exists for discussion and questions about the MediaWiki software[0]. Important MediaWiki-related announcements (such as new versions) are also posted to this list.
Other resources.
If you only wish to receive announcements, you should subscribe to mediawiki-announce[1] instead.
MediaWiki development discussion, and all Wikimedia technical questions, should be directed to the wikitech-l[2] mailing list.
Several other MediaWiki-related lists exist: - mediawiki-api[5] for API discussions, - mediawiki-enterprise[6] for discussion of MediaWiki in the enterprise, - mediawiki-cvs[7] for notification of commits to the Subversion repository, - mediawiki-i18n[8] for discussion of MediaWiki internationalisation support, - wikibugs-l[9] for notification of changes to the bug tracker.
List administrivia (unsubscribing, list archives). To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit [12]. Archives of previous postings can be found at [3].
This list is also gatewayed to the Gmane NNTP server[4], which you can use to read and post to the list.
Posting to the list.
Before posting to this list, please read the MediaWiki FAQ[10]. Many common questions are answered here. You may also search the list archives to see if your question has been asked before.
Please try to ask your question in a way that enables people to answer you. Provide all relevant details, explain your problem clearly, etc. You may wish to read [13], which explains how to ask questions well.
To post to the list, send mail to mediawiki-l@lists.wikimedia.org. This is a public list, so you should not include confidential information in mails you send.
When replying to an existing thread, use the "Reply" or "Followup" feature of your mail client, so that clients that understand threading can sort your message properly. When quoting other messages, please use the "inline" quoting style[11], for clarity.
When creating a new thread, do not reply to an existing message and change the subject. This will confuse peoples' mail readers, and will result in fewer people reading your mail. Instead, compose a new message for your post.
Messages posted to the list have the "Reply-To" header set to the mailing list, which means that by default, replies will go to the entire list. If you are posting a reply which is only interesting to the original poster, and not the list in general, you should change the reply to only go to that person. This avoids cluttering the list with irrelevant traffic.
About this message.
This message is posted to the list once per week by river@wikimedia.org. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns about this mailing.

Dear all, If I need to upload file in mediawiki first we need to upload file using upload link then we need to use appropriate tag such as [[Image:Example.jpg]]in the edit window and also we need to remember the file name. Any body has any solution or tricks where using mediawikis edit tools (such as a button) I directly can upload any files from my computer/server(without clicking upload and these long procedure). Thanks in advance.
Can I suggest you add the image tag first, then click on the red link that will show in place of the new image and it will prompt you to upload a file as it can't find it.
