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.
