Welcome! This is an initiative to support small wiki communities in learning and sharing technical skills.
This page describes the toolkits and provides information about the initiative, including how you can help.
Browse the toolkits
Toolkits are collections of recommended tools and educational resources. They focus on specific technical skills for developing, growing, and maintaining small wikis. You can use these toolkits to learn a variety of technical skills, or use them in workshops to teach more people.
Configure your site
- Learn to change the configuration of your wiki:
Analyze data with Lua
- Learn Lua to get data from Wikidata into infobox templates:
- Read the Lua Tutorial.
- Watch this video (90 min, on Youtube).
Starter kit

Ask your technical questions
Is something unclear? Please ask! Good places to ask are usually the Support desk on mediawiki.org (if a question about MediaWiki itself), some mailing lists and IRC chat channels, the Tech page on meta-wiki (if it's about a Wikimedia wiki), or the talk pages of the links above after you have checked that the talk page has actually been active lately.
You can also join the Small Wiki Toolkits Telegram group.
Help with this initiative
Do you have an idea for building technical capacity in your wiki community? Are you interested in workshops, virtual events, toolkits, video tutorials, or interested in exchanging problems and challenges in smaller wiki communities? Add a comment on the discussion page!
People working on this project organize and track what to work on in the Small-Wiki-Toolkits Phabricator project. We sometimes have video meetings, and we have a Small Wiki Toolkits Telegram group.
Develop toolkits
Toolkits provide a limited number of links to high-quality, task-oriented ("How can I…?") material. This often requires improving existing documentation first, to be consistent, up-to-date, and in plain English. We discuss existing documentation pages for a specific area in a corresponding Phabricator task, instead of listing ten "See Also" links for one topic on this very page. Ideally, we would also love to have short, well-done video tutorials on some topics, with subtitles that could be translated.
If you want to develop and document a toolkit yourself, here are some recommendations:
- Toolkits should be task- and user-oriented. The question to answer is "How can I solve this problem?", not "Can you tell me more about this technology area?".
- Use the toolkit presentation template slides. The template is also available in ODP file format.
- Include notes for trainers on the slides where applicable so that both potential trainers or learners can benefit from it. For reference, see user scripts and gadgets toolkit source and its PDF version with detailed notes.
- Upload your toolkit with detailed notes on Wikimedia Commons & add the Small wiki toolkits category. In the File Description, add a link to the PDF source if you are willing to let a potential trainer make a copy and modifications to the source. See for reference, the description section of these slides on Wikimedia Commons.
