I am new to gerrit for mediawiki. It really took me a long time to
make it work, while there is nothing wrong in the instructions.
Sometimes I solved the problems I encountered by simple methods like
restart, update. I feel less instruction manuals with more detailed
information would help. Also, it would be nice if there is a trouble
shooting page, everyone can add the problem under the corresponding
category in the page.
