MediaWiki.org provides some {{tag|documentation}}, and surrounding {{tag|information}}, but in fact this [[WhatIsWiki|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}} (WMF) who oversee {{tag|MediaWiki}} development, and who also own and run the {{tag|Wikipedia}} empire and all its sister projects. | MediaWiki.org provides some {{tag|documentation}}, and surrounding {{tag|information}}, but in fact this [[WhatIsWiki|wiki]] is relatively new, and most of the {{tag|Software development|development}} and user support information can be found at [[Wikimedia Meta-Wiki]] (a much older site).
