 '''Email Setup'''
 
-Setting up email can be an involved process. Mediawiki is perfectly happy to disable email with 1 setting (no password reminders or notifications), but it is a nice feature to have. You could run your own mail server (on the mediawiki server, or elsewhere), or use one of many services which sends mail for very cheap, or free within limits (popular examples [http://www.mailgun.com/ mailgun], [https://mandrillapp.com/ mandrill], [http://www.mailjet.com/pricing mailjet], [https://aws.amazon.com/ses/ aws]), or connect  to a full featured send/receive mail provider like [https://fastmail.com fastmail] (this server is setup that way). How we did that is for a future wiki page.
+Setting up email can be an involved process, and this guide assumes that a some program (usually postfix or exim) is implementing a functional sendmail interface. Mediawiki uses email with to send password reminders or notifications, and this guide includes cronjobs for updating mediawiki and doing backups which will send mail in the case of an error. Email is also the recommended way to get notifications of package updates which require manual steps such as restarting of services.
 
 If you are not setting up your server to send mail with a program that uses the default sendmail interface, see these pages when you are configuring mediawiki: [[mediawikiwiki:Manual:$wgEnableEmail|Manual:$wgEnableEmail]], [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Configuration_settings#Email_settings Manual:Email_settings], [[mediawikiwiki:Manual:$wgSMTP|Manual:$wgSMTP]]

 Overall the documentation is good, but like wikipedia, it depends.
 
-The closer a topic is to core functionality and commonly used features, the better the documentation is likely to be. My guess is that Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) has a competing priority of being a good upstream to mediawiki users and being good for their own sites. That, plus the multitude of unconnected extension developers, and official documentation is sometimes neglected in favor of bug reports, readme files, comments, code, and unpublished knowledge. User's edits vary in quality, and often aren't reviewed by anyone. If you run into an issue, try viewing/diffing the most recent version of a page by the last few editors.

 One issue is that mediawiki.org needs a lot of organizing, deleting, and verifying of material, and that is relatively unpopular, tedious, and sometimes difficult work. The discussion pages of mediawiki.org are a wasteland of unanswered questions and outdated conversations, which is [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Talk_pages poor form] for a wiki.
