This page have details about support@wikimedia.ch - that is, the technical support mailbox of Wikimedia CH.

Support Availability

Since mid-2026, support is generally available every afternoon of every business day, between 4PM-6PM, excluding Italian holidays.

Support Team

Support is provided by Valerio Bozzolan (for WMCH), activated by Ilario Valdelli (WMCH) under the Innovation programme.

Please do not reach these users in private to get support.

Faster Support

A ticket with more updated recent extra details attract faster support. That is, while waiting for our availability, we kindly recommend to proactively review your own ticket and consider what extra information an external technician might need from you in order to better understand your topic, how to reproduce your situation, etc. - and you are encouraged to share these extra details anytime by replying this ticket, go get faster support. You can also just express more urgency anytime, by replying this ticket (if possible, no more than once each working day - thanks).

The Best Ticket

  • If you discover new details to be shared, feel free to reply to this ticket, anytime.
  • If you discover a new different problem (or feature), please open a completely different new ticket by writing to support@wikimedia.ch
  • If you are sharing a screenshot, includes the whole page, and the page URL. You can also share how exactly you arrived to that page, what is happening right now and what should happen instead.
  • If you're suggesting a feature, rather than suggesting a technical change feel free to share your exact final goal (the "Five whys" approach documented in Wikipedia is usually a simple but excellent tool)

Support Perimeter

In general, we can give support only to resources listed in our Infrastructure/Inventories.

For example, for Microsoft products, we will deliver all tickets to Moresi, who is the Microsoft service provider for WMCH.

Quick Meeting

To speed-up your ticket, feel free to pick a slot to have an online meeting:
