444 Some output, particularly involving user-supplied inline HTML, may not
445 produce 100% valid or well-formed XHTML output. Testers are welcome to
446 set $wgMimeType = "application/xhtml+xml"; to test for remaining problem
447 cases, but this is not recommended on live sites. (This must be set for
448 MathML to display properly in Mozilla.)

454 === Online documentation ===
456 Documentation for both end-users and site administrators is currently being
457 built up on Meta-Wikipedia, and is covered under the GNU Free Documentation
460 http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents
465 A MediaWiki-l mailing list has been set up distinct from the Wikipedia
468 http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
470 A low-traffic announcements-only list is also available:
471 http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-announce
473 It's highly recommended that you sign up for one of these lists if you're
474 going to run a public MediaWiki, so you can be notified of security fixes.
479 There's usually someone online in #mediawiki on irc.freenode.net
