'''Wikimedia Meta-Wiki''' – this {{tag|meta}} [[wiki]] is used by the '[[Wikimedia Foundation]]' to coordinate their projects and activities, which include running [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and various sister projects, and developing the wiki engine {{tag|MediaWiki}}.
'''Wikimedia Meta-Wiki''' – this '{{tag|meta}}' [[wiki]] is used by the {{tag|Wikimedia Foundation}} (WMF) to act as a central primary coordination wiki for all of their 'projects' and activities, which include running [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and various sister projects, and also originally included developing their own wiki engine software, known as {{tag|MediaWiki}}.


The {{tag|wiki}} includes a lot of information about MediaWiki; including user manuals, installation manuals, and development information – which is in the process of being moved to [[MediaWiki|MediaWiki.org]] (a more logical place for it).
This meta {{tag|wiki}} also used to include a lot of information about MediaWiki; including user manuals, installation manuals, and development information; however, this has now been moved to the [[MediaWiki.org]] wiki (a more logical place for it). Inevitably, the discussion pages related to those manuals start to act as a kind of support forum, but there are [[mw:Communication|other channels]] for seeking user/admin/development support.
