Wikimedia Developer Support offers a support channel for all developers working with MediaWiki or other Wikimedia related technologies: APIs, extensions, skins, gadgets, templates, bots, tools, apps, data sets… If you need help with a technical problem, just ask.

This website is based on Discourse. If you have questions about how to use it, check https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Discourse/Help

Your feedback about this website is very important! Bug reports, feature requests and other suggestions are very welcomed.

IMPORTANT

Wikimedia Developer Support is a pilot project running on a test instance. This is not the final deployment. More about this project at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Discourse

* Although the migration of users and content to the production server is theoretically possible, at this point it is not guaranteed (T184461). * The authentication system for this test instance is not what will be used if this project makes it to production. * If you have a Wikimedia account, use the same email when registering here. This is how your username and content will remain yours if/when Wikimedia single sign-on is implemented (T124691). * Do not reuse your “real” passwords when creating an account in this test instance.
