Description Iwan Gabovitch 2012-06-27 16:12:30 UTC
I want to report a bug that affects Wikipedia and Commons.

On https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi I am given the hint that 

"Wikimedia: 	Configuration issues and other issues specific to Wikimedia servers, Wikimedia websites (including Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Commons, and the BugZilla instance) and other Wikimedia specific things"

could be the right place.

However on https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Wikimedia

there is no "component" which is "Wikipedia" or "Commons" or anything like that.

At least there is a "Bugzilla" Component, which I use now though.

Wikimedia -> General/unknown "All issues that don't not fit into any of the other components."

This works if it's not a MediaWiki bug, sure ;-)

And please don't worry if you file a bug in the wrong place--someone will undoubtably move it to the correct place.

The current Bugzilla workflow is _painfully_ unintuitive for this use-case, but this issue is largely covered by other bugs, so there's not much point in re-opening this bug.

The related bugs are:

* bug 27001 – MW Bugzilla integration extension
* bug 27421 – Write and implement bug reporting wizard
* bug 27852 – Wikimedia wikis need better issue reporting system
* bug 38990 – Bugzilla products could use a re-examination
