==== Our intention ====

Already a few months before we created this wiki in spring 2023, there were internal considerations of creating a public wiki. As a technology affine person or system admin it's always the same: Searching the internet for a solution to a problem that is bothering you, wondering whether you could be the only person running into this specific bug. After hours of reading tickets, lengthy forum posts and documentation, it gets frustrating and you are standing empty handed. 

After a major system outage in 2020, we recreated our entire setup from scratch. :-\. A lot of adjustments and setups were made during this process, so it was necessary to document it somewhere safe. We were in need of a modern and flexible documentation system why we started using DokuWiki. After years of using Dokuwiki internally, it's grown much larger than we expected and contains helpful documentation and tutorials.

As Linux enthusiasts, we are now at the point of giving back to the community. Since solutions can sometimes be found in a side comment of a lengthy forum post, or are sometimes being published in places that won’t be online for long, we want to give the internet a place to store these things for ever and accessible for everyone. Such "fixes" or solutions that we found are now documented in our internal wiki. We thought it was a pity that this not accessible to anyone, so from now on we try to publish as much as possible.

==== Who we are ====

This wiki is maintained by the IT department of [[about:about-this-wiki#About_Brecht-Schule_Hamburg|Brecht Schule Hamburg]] (Brecht School Hamburg) - or ''**BIT**'' for short - where this Wiki is physically hosted on our campus right next to compiling servers of [[https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,887.msg6800.html#msg6800|Artix Linux]]. As described in the paragraph above, this wiki should primarly  provide //fixes// to anyone that had/has the same problem as we had, for which reason we named it [[https://fixes.brecht-schule.hamburg|fixes.brecht-schule.hamburg]].

A list of all authors can be found [[user:start|here]], a ranking of all contributions/authors [[user:start#author_ranking|here]].

==== Contact ====

If you've found any mistake or improvement proposal, just contact us under <fixes@brecht-schule.hamburg> or <fixes@brecht-schulen.de>. 

But as always, we assume no liability or responsibility for the correctness of the content of this wiki!
