Help 2:How to report bugs

This article covers how to report bugs you find on Memory Alpha.

We want your experience on Memory Alpha to be as bug-free as possible, and we welcome anyone who spots a bug to report it to us. However, in order to aid us in solving those bugs, we have a few tips about how to report them.

Where should they be reported to?
All bugs need to be reported through Special:Contact/bug. If you prefer your regular email interface, then you can email the message through to [mailto:community@fandom.com community@fandom.com] instead.

What should a problem report contain?

 * Try to make it as clear as possible, including specific details and steps on how to reproduce the bug.
 * A screenshot of how the bug is manifesting, when applicable. See http://www.take-a-screenshot.org for details on how to take a screenshot on your computer/device. There are also some browser plug-ins that can make taking screenshots easier, such as.
 * Click the "Browse..." button (if using Special:Contact/bug) and upload the screenshot file.
 * Browser, including version number – for example Firefox 18, IE9, etc.
 * Operating System (OS) – for example Windows 7, OS X 10.7, etc.
 * The name of the wiki (Memory Alpha) and what exact page you were on when you saw the problem.
 * The full text of any error messages.
 * Whether you were logged in at the time, and with what username.
 * Skin preference if it's not the default Fandom skin.

Thank you in advance from both the Memory Alpha and Fandom teams!
