Miraheze is rapidly growing and needs your support. For as little as $2, you help keep over 20,000 community-run wikis online, free of advertisements. If you are enjoying reading the wikis that we host, your financial support would mean everything to us.

Due to a severe PHP vulnerability we have made the decision to take all services offline out of an abundance of caution. This will last until PHP is patched which is planned for about 13 hours from now. (1/2)

While we understand the inconvenience, this is a necessary step, due to the expected and announced severity of these vulnerabilities. We appreciate your understanding and thank you for your patience. (2/2)

Upgrades have now concluded successfully ahead of schedule. We thank you for your patience. Please let us know on Discord in the Tech channel in case of any issues. Thank you!

We will be performing upgrades on our cloud servers on March 5th, 2026 from 20:00 UTC til March 6th 03:00 UTC. During this time all services (wikis, images, Phorge, etc.) will be completely unavailable. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Miraheze will be conducting maintenance on the database servers on January 20, 2026 from 19:00 to 23:00 UTC. During that time wikis may be totally unavailable for read intermittently and all wikis may be placed in read-only at times.

Miraheze will be conducting maintenance on file storage servers on January 15, 2026 from 20:00 to 23:00 UTC. During that time, files may be intermittently unavailable and you may be unable to upload or delete files.

Please note that starting tomorrow, December 19th and lasting until January 5th, most deployments will be suspended for the holidays and the tech team may have limited availability (apart from emergencies). (1/2)

We are aware that wikis are currently extremely slow to load, if not completely inaccessible. Our team is working to get services restored ASAP. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

We are currently performing necessary maintenance on our file servers. As a result all file-related services are unavailable. (This includes backups, Images, etc). We hope to have everything restored soon. We thank you for your understanding, and appreciate your patience.

On Thursday June 26th, we will be conducting emergency maintenance on our hypervisors (cloud15) which will require a full shutdown of the server. This will begin at 19:00 UTC and last around 90 minutes until 20:30 UTC. (1/2)

This will involve a full outage of all wikis on db151/c1 and editing, viewing files and account logins will be unstable on all other wikis. (2/2)

On Monday June 23rd, we will be conducting a hardware repair on one of our hypervisors (cloud15) which will require a full shutdown of the server. This will begin at 18:30 UTC and last around 90 minutes until 20:00 UTC. (1/2)

This will involve a full outage of all wikis on db151/c1 and editing, viewing files and account logins will be unstable on all other wikis. (2/2)

We will be performing maintenance on our servers again on March 1st, 2025 from 18:45 until 20:45 UTC for hardware upgrades. We expect intermittent outages, so we highly recommend that you save your edits before then. We thank you for your understanding and appreciate your patience.

On February 22nd, 2025 from 18:45 until 23:30 UTC we will be performing maintenance on our servers. During this time we expect intermittent outages of all services. We will post updates as needed, and we hank you for your understanding.

The maintenance will now take place on Wednesday February 26th from 18:45 until 23:30 UTC. Once again we expect intermittent outages of all services.

We are aware of an issue that is currently preventing file uploads. Our team is investigating, and will get uploads restored as soon as possible.

We also have had reports of existing images being broken for private wikis. This may also start happening on public wikis as the cache expires. We appreciate your patience as we continue to investigate.

Miraheze will be upgrading all wikis to MediaWiki 1.43 on Monday, January 27th at 18:00 UTC. This is expected to take approximately one hour and end at 19:00 UTC. During this window there may be intermittent downtime, but edits will be possible. Thank you for your understanding!

In the near future Miraheze would like to start requiring TLSv1.3 in order to access our services. This is for security reasons. You can see if you are affected by attempting to access meta.mirabeta.org. If you can still access this wiki then you are not affected. (1/2)

If you get a TLS error/are unable to access that wiki, then most likely your browser does not support TLSv1.3. We don't expect that many users will be affected by this, but please let us know if you are. Thank you for your understanding! (2/2)

Please note that the tech team has suspended most deployments for the holidays, and may have limited availability (apart from emergencies) until January 6th. Low risk tasks may still be worked on, but generally you should expect that response times will be slower than normal.

Due to an unfortunate mishap while working on the database, permissions are currently broken. All wikis are currently read only while we restore from a backup. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience.

The backup has now been restored, however we unfortunately were unable to restore any permissions changes made between 16:33 and 16:37 UTC. Once again, we appreciate your patience, and apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

You are up to date.
