=== Wait what?  You have an IRC server? ===
''Main help page: [[Help:IRC]]''
The FeministWiki offers an ''Internet Relay Chat'' server for those who have been using computers for a long time and feel especially nostalgic, or those among the younger generations who have re-discovered IRC.
The server is only open to members.  It rejects connections from those who can't authenticate with a valid FeministWiki username and password.  The hostname is '''irc.feministwiki.org''' and only encrypted connections are accepted, on port 6697.  To establish a connection, configure your IRC client so that your IRC nick is your FeministWiki username, and make your client use the rudimentary <code>PASS</code> authentication method with your FeministWiki password.  (In most IRC clients this will simply correspond to a "password" text field that you fill out while configuring the connection.)
