Snippets and Summary:
This book will be useful to some extent to average users of MediaWiki-based wikis – Wikipedia and many others – especially the early chapters on MediaWiki syntax and structure. However, the primary intended audience is for administrators: people who are running, or helping to run, or thinking about running, an instance of MediaWiki, and could benefit from a general reference guide. The book is called "Working with MediaWiki", because it's meant for people who are trying to do real work with MediaWiki – whether it's for their company, for an organization, for a user community, or for themselves. Wherever possible, I try to offer a pragmatic approach, and straightforward answers to the common issues that people experience.
