'''Here's how to effectively use [[HRWiki:IRC channel|IRC]]:'''

Our IRC channels are [irc://irc.libera.chat/hrwiki #hrwiki] and [irc://irc.libera.chat/hrwiki-rc #hrwiki-RC]. They can be accessed through [https://web.libera.chat/#hrwiki web.libera.chat/#hrwiki], although it is recommended that you use an [[Internet Relay Chat|IRC client]].

== <span class="mw-headline">Contacting an operator</span> ==

If there is flooding, spamming, or another form of vandalism going on in #hrwiki or #hrwiki-fanstuff, it's best to contact an operator as soon as possible, so he can deal with the offender. Operators are [[HRWiki:Sysops|sysops]] that also help take care of our IRC channels.
