MediaWiki.org provides some {{tag|documentation}}, and surrounding {{tag|information}}, but in fact this wiki is relatively new, and most of the development and user support information can be found at [[Wikimedia Meta-Wiki]] (a much older site).  This is a slightly confusing situation which hopefully will be tidied up a bit at some point.  Both sites are run by the not-for-profit '{{tag|Wikimedia Foundation}}' who oversee {{tag|MediaWiki}} development, and who also own and run the {{tag|Wikipedia}} empire.
