have you setup the alert message to be sent to your mail account? Then
you could wait for some minutes before forwarding to these mailing lists.

It is almost always useless to forward those messages to the list. The noise is very high. Especially simultaneous messages about both wiki and forum being down are symptoms of a problem that is not server-specific (the two services are on different servers), usually some maintenance operation by Infra that, as it happened, will be completed within a few minutes.

This is the recommended way for people to subscribe to alerts: all you need is an e-mail address. We could have chosen to subscribe the lists to alerts, but it doesn't make sense in light of the above considerations.
