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.
