Inzwischen ist ja schon die Version 1.14 raus und sowohl das MediaWiki als auch die Wikipedia
scheinen schon stabil unter 1.15 alpha zu laufen.

Vieleicht könnte man bei einem erneuten Upgrade auch mal die Extensions ImageMap und ChemFunctions
mit einbeziehen. Erstere können durch anklicken von Bildern auf andere Seiten verweisen, (damit lassen sich
gut unterschiedliche Versionen eines Baukastens auf verschiedenen Seiten darstellen), während letztere
die mühselige Schreibweise der Kleinschreibung abnimmt.

[code]<chemform>H2SO4</chemform> [/code]wird so automatisch im Wiki zu
[code] H₂SO₄[/code] ( H[size=85]2[/size]SO[size=85]4[/size])

Der Index ist durch.

Nun ist auch noch die Extension ImageMap installiert

Ein Test ist hier zu sehen:
http://www.rigert.com/ee-wiki/index.php/Sandkasten2

Ich habe noch nicht damit gespielt und kenne mich somit auch nicht damit aus.
Ich hoffe die Extension überlebt den nächsten WIKI Upgrade.

Hier ist auch noch eine lustige Extension zu sehen:

Eventuell wurde es von einigen User festgestellt. Das ee-wiki war in den letzten Tagen nicht 100% verfügbar. Ich hatte grosse Probleme den Upgrade auf 1.18.0 zu machen. Aktuell ist das ee-wiki ein Link auf bk-wiki. Ich bin dabei einige Scripte zu schreiben damit wir täglichen lokalen Backup haben ohne vom Provider abhängig zu sein (Ein Restore vom Provider soll CHF 100 kosten). Es sollen immer zwei identische wiki vorhanden sein. Beim einen mache ich dann den Update und schalte danach den Link um. So soll die Verfügbarkeit und auch die Sicherheit gewährleistet sein. Doch noch ist es nicht so weit. Aktuell habe ich erst mal Backup der DB und von Filesystem.

Aktuell sind wir nun bei folgenden Versionen.

MediaWiki 1.18.0
PHP 5.3.5 (cgi-fcgi)
MySQL 5.1.58-log

Dazu sind folgende Erweiterungen installiert:
- Embedded Widgets
- ImageMap
- Skype
- ChemFunctions

The user_token field is now left empty until a user attempts to login and cookies need to be set. It is also now possible to reset every user's user_token simply by clearing the values in the user_token column.
Removed ./tests/qunit/index.html from core. It wasn't actively maintained and has been made obsolete when Special:JavaScriptTest/qunit was introduced, which actually uses ResourceLoader, LocalSettings and the Skin.
Removed $wgDBtransactions global. This was only checked in one class and only applies to MyISAM or similar DBs. Those should only be used for archived sites anyway. We can't get edit conflicts on such sites, so the WikiPage code wasn't useful there either.

Deprecated DatabaseBase functions newFromParams(), newFromType(), set(), quote_ident(), and escapeLike() were removed.

Debug message emitted by wfDebugLog() will now be prefixed with the group name when its logged to the default log file. That is the case whenever the group has no key in wgDebugLogGroups, that will help triage the default log.
(bug 24620) Add types to LogFormatter.
jQuery JSON upgraded from 2.3 to 2.4.0.
Added GetDoubleUnderscoreIDs hook, for modifying the list of magic words.
DatabaseUpdater class has two new methods to ease extensions schema changes: dropExtensionIndex and renameExtensionIndex.
New preference type - 'api'. Preferences of this type are not shown on Special:Preferences, but are still available via the action=options API.
(bug 39397) Hide rollback link if a user is the only contributor of the page.
$wgPageInfoTransclusionLimit limits the list size of transcluded articles on the info action. Default is 50.
Added action=createaccount to allow user account creation.
(bug 40124) action=options API also allows for setting of arbitrary preferences, provided that their names are prefixed with 'userjs-'. This officially reenables the feature that was undocumented and defective in MW 1.20 (saving preferences using Special:Preferences cleared any additional fields) and which has been disabled in 1.20.1 as a part of a security fix (bug 42202).
Added option to specify "others" as author in extension credits using "..." as author name.
Added the ability to limit the wall clock time used by shell processes, as well as the CPU time. Configurable with $wgMaxShellWallClockTime.
Allow memory of shell subprocesses to be limited using Linux cgroups instead of ulimit -v, which tends to cause deadlocks in recent versions of ImageMagick. Configurable with $wgShellCgroup.
Added $wgWhitelistReadRegexp for regex whitelisting.
(bug 5346) Categories that are redirects will be displayed italic in the category links section at the bottom of a page.
(bug 43915) New maintenance script deleteEqualMessages.php.
You can now create checkbox option matrices through the HTMLCheckMatrix subclass in HTMLForm.
WikiText now permits the use of WAI-ARIA's role="presentation" inside of html elements and tables. This allows presentational markup, especially tables. To be marked up as such.
maintenance/sql.php learned the --cluster option. Let you run the script on some external cluster instead of the primary cluster for a given wiki.
(bug 20281) test the parsing of inline URLs.
Added Special:PagesWithProp, which lists pages using a particular page property.
Implemented language-specific collations for category sorting for 67 languages based in latin, greek and cyrillic alphabets. This allows one to *finally* get articles to be correctly sorted on category pages. They are named 'uca-<langcode>', where <langcode> is one of: af, ast, az, be, bg, br, bs, ca, co, cs, cy, da, de, dsb, el, en, eo, es, et, eu, fi, fo, fr, fur, fy, ga, gd, gl, hr, hsb, hu, is, it, kk, kl, ku, ky, la, lb, lt, lv, mk, mo, mt, nl, no, oc, pl, pt, rm, ro, ru, rup, sco, sk, sl, smn, sq, sr, sv, tk, tl, tr, tt, uk, uz, vi.
Added 'CategoryAfterPageAdded' and 'CategoryAfterPageRemoved' hooks.
Added 'HistoryRevisionTools' and 'DiffRevisionTools' hooks.
Added 'SpecialSearchResultsPrepend' and 'SpecialSearchResultsAppend' hooks.
(bug 33186) Add image rotation api "imagerotate"
(bug 34040) Add "User rights management" link on user page toolbox.
(bug 45526) Add QUnit assertion helper "QUnit.assert.htmlEqual" for asserting structual equality of HTML (ignoring insignificant differences like quotmarks, order and whitespace in the attribute list).

API changes in 1.21

BREAKING CHANGE
Chunked uploads are now disabled by default. You can re-enable them by setting $wgAllowChunkedUploads=true
BREAKING CHANGE
list=logevents output format changed for details of some log types. Specifically, details that were formerly reported under a key like "4::foo" will now be reported under a key of simply "foo".
BREAKING CHANGE
'??_badcontinue' error code was changed to '??badcontinue' for all query modules.

prop=revisions can now report the contentmodel and contentformat. See docs/contenthandler.txt.
action=edit and action=parse now support contentmodel and contentformat parameters to control the interpretation of page content. See docs/contenthandler.txt for details.
(bug 35693) ApiQueryImageInfo now suppresses errors when unserializing metadata.
(bug 40111) Disable minor edit for page/section creation by API.
(bug 41042) Revert change to action=parse&page=... behavior when the page does not exist.
(bug 27202) Add timestamp sort to list=allimages.
(bug 43137) Don't return the sha1 of revisions through the API if the content is revision-deleted.
ApiQueryImageInfo now also returns imageinfo for redirects.
list=alltransclusions added to enumerate every instance of page embedding
list=alllinks & alltransclusions now allow both 'from' and 'continue' in the same query. When both are present, 'from' is simply ignored.
list=alllinks & alltransclusions now allow 'unique' in generators, to yield a list of all link/template target pages instead of source pages.
ApiQueryBase adds 'badcontinue' error code if module has 'continue' parameter.
(bug 35885) Removed version parameter and all getVersion() methods.
action=options now takes a "resetkinds" option, which allows only resetting certain types of preferences when the "reset" option is set.
(bug 36751) ApiQueryImageInfo now returns imageinfo for the redirect target when queried with &redirects=.
(bug 31849) ApiQueryImageInfo no longer gets confused when asked for info on a redirect and its target.
(bug 43849) ApiQueryImageInfo no longer throws exceptions with ForeignDBRepo redirects.
On error, any warnings generated before that error will be shown in the result.
action=help supports generalized submodules (modules=query+value), querymodules obsolete
ApiQueryImageInfo continuation is more reliable. The only major change is that the imagerepository property will no longer be set on page objects not processed in the current query (i.e. non-images or those skipped due to iicontinue).
Add supports for all pageset capabilities - generators, redirects, converttitles to action=purge and action=setnotificationtimestamp.
(bug 43251) prop=pageprops&ppprop= now accepts multiple props to query.
ApiQueryImageInfo will now limit the number of calls to File::transform made in any one query. If there are too many, iicontinue will be returned.
action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=general will now return the regexes used for link trails and link prefixes. Added for Parsoid support.
Added an API query module list=pageswithprop, which lists pages using a particular page property.
Added an API query module list=pagepropnames, which lists all page prop names currently in use on the wiki.
(bug 44921) ApiMain::execute() will now return after the CORS check for an HTTP OPTIONS request.
(bug 44923) action=upload works correctly if the entire file is uploaded in the first chunk.
Added 'continue=' parameter to streamline client iteration over complex query results
(bug 44909) API parameters may now be marked as type "upload", which is now used for action=upload's 'file' and 'chunk' parameters. This type will raise an error during parameter validation if the parameter is given but not recognized as an uploaded file.
(bug 44244) prop=info may now return the number of people watching each page.
(bug 33304) list=allpages will no longer return duplicate entries when querying protection.
(bug 33304) list=allpages will now find really old indefinite protections.
(bug 45937) meta=allmessages will report a syntactically invalid lang as a proper error instead of as an uncaught exception.
(bug 48542) SpecialStatistics::getOtherStats() now uses the user language.

API internal changes in 1.21

BREAKING CHANGE
ApiPageSet constructor now has two params instead of three, with only the first one keeping its meaning. ApiPageSet is now derived from ApiBase.
BREAKING CHANGE
ApiQuery::newGenerator() and executeGeneratorModule() were deleted.

For debugging only, a new global $wgDebugAPI removes many API restrictions when true. Never use on the production servers, as this flag introduces security holes. Whenever enabled, a warning will also be added to all output.
ApiModuleManager now handles all submodules (actions,props,lists) and instantiation
Query stores prop/list/meta as submodules
ApiPageSet can now be used in any action to process titles/pageids/revids or any generator.
ApiQueryGeneratorBase::setGeneratorMode() now requires a pageset param.
$wgAPIGeneratorModules is now obsolete and will be ignored.
Added flags ApiResult::OVERRIDE and ADD_ON_TOP to setElement() and addValue()
Internal API calls will now include <warnings> in case of unused parameters

Languages updated in 1.21

MediaWiki supports over 350 languages. Many localisations are updated regularly. Below only new and removed languages are listed, as well as changes to languages because of Bugzilla reports.

South Azerbaijani (azb) added.
(bug 30040) Autonym for nds-nl is now 'Nedersaksies' (was 'Nedersaksisch').
(bug 45436) Autonym for pi (Pali) is now 'पालि' (was 'पाळि').
(bug 34977) Now formatted numbers in Spanish use space as separator for thousands, as mandated by the Real Academia Española.
(bug 35031) Kurdish formatted numbers now use period and comma as separators for thousands and decimals respectively.

Other changes in 1.21

Experimental IBM DB2 support was removed due to lack of interest and maintainership.

BREAKING CHANGE
(bug 44385) Removed the jquery.collapsibleTabs module and moved it to the Vector extension. It was entirely Vector-extension-specific, deeply interconnected with the extension, and this functionality really belongs to the extension instead of the skin anyway. In the unlikely case you were using it, you have to either copy it to your extension, or install the Vector extension (and possibly disable its features using config settings if you don't want them).
BREAKING CHANGE
Filenames of maintenance scripts were standardized into lowerCamelCase format, and made more explicit:

clear_stats.php → clearCacheStats.php
clear_interwiki_cache.php → clearInterwikiCache.php
initStats.php → initSiteStats.php
proxy_check.php → proxyCheck.php
stats.php → showCacheStats.php
showStats.php → showSiteStats.php.

Class names were renamed accordingly:

clear_stats → ClearCacheStats
InitStats → InitSiteStats
CacheStats → ShowCacheStats
ShowStats → ShowSiteStats.

BREAKING CHANGE
(bug 38244) Removed the mediawiki.api.titleblacklist module and moved it to the TitleBlacklist extension.

Breaking Changes in 1.22.0
New features in 1.22.0
Configuration changes in 1.22.0
Bug fixes in 1.22.0
API changes in 1.22.0
Languages updated in 1.22.0
Other changes in 1.22.0

Breaking changes

(bug 41729) Display editsection links next to headings. Also change their class name from .editsection to .mw-editsection and place them at the end of the heading element instead of the beginning. Client-side code and screen-scrapers will have to be adjusted to handle both cases (old HTML will still be visible on cached page renders until they are purged); extensions using the DoEditSectionLink or EditSectionLink hooks might need adjustments as well.
(bug 55818) Removed undocumented 'Debug' hook in wfDebug. This resolves an infinite loop when using $wgDebugFunctionEntry = true.
action=parse no longer returns all langlinks for the page with prop=langlinks by default. The new effectivelanglinks parameter will request that the LanguageLinks hook be called to determine the effective language links.
list=allpages, list=langbacklinks, and prop=langlinks do not apply the new LanguageLinks hook, and thus only consider language links stored in the database.
Implementation of MediaWiki's JS and JSON value encoding has changed:
MediaWiki no longer supports PHP installations in which the native JSON extension is missing or disabled.
XmlJsCode objects can no longer be nested inside objects or arrays. (For Xml::encodeJsCall(), this individually applies to each argument.)
The sets of characters escaped by default, along with the precise escape sequences used, have changed (except for the Xml::escapeJsString() function, which is now deprecated).
The Services_JSON class has been removed. If necessary, be sure to upgrade affected extensions at the same time (e.g. Collection).
Legacy skins Simple, MySkin, Chick, Standard and Nostalgia were all removed. (Nostalgia was moved to an extension.) The SkinLegacy and LegacyTemplate classes that supported them were removed as well and are now a part of the Nostalgia extension.
The "ExternalAuth" authentication subsystem was removed, along with its associated globals of $wgExternalAuthType, $wgExternalAuthConf, $wgAutocreatePolicy and $wgAllowPrefChange. Affected users are encouraged to use AuthPlugin for external authentication/authorization needs.
mw.util.tooltipAccessKeyRegexp: The match group for the accesskey character is now $6 instead of $5.
meta keywords are no longer supported. A <meta name="keywords" will no longer be output and OutputPage::addKeyword no longer exists.
The EditSectionLink hook was removed after being deprecated since MediaWiki 1.14. Use DoEditSectionLink instead.
(bug 50310) wikibits: Drop support for mwCustomEditButtons. It defaults to an empty array and emits mw.log.warn when accessed.
Special:Disambiguations has been removed from MediaWiki core. Functions related to disambiguation pages are now handled by the Disambiguator extension (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Disambiguator) (bug 35981).
The 'mediawiki.legacy.wikiprintable' module has been removed. The skins/common/wikiprintable.css file no longer exists. Return value of Skin#commonPrintStylesheet is ignored. Please use the 'mediawiki.legacy.commonPrint' module instead or base your skin on SkinTemplate.
The module 'mediawiki.legacy.IEFixes' has been removed as it was unused. The file skins/common/IEFixes.js remains but is only used by wikibits. The file never contained any re-usable components. To use it in a skin, load 'mediawiki.legacy.wikibits' (which IEFixes depends on) and that will import IEFixes automatically if user agent conditions are met.

New features

You can now install extensions using Composer. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Composer
(bug 44525) mediawiki.jqueryMsg can now parse (whitelisted) HTML elements and attributes.
(bug 33454) Language::sprintfDate now has a timezone parameter, and supports the "eIOPTZ" formatting characters.
EditWarning: A warning is shown when an editor leaves the edit form without saving (enabled by default, users can opt-out via the 'useeditwarning' preference). This feature was moved from the Vector extension, and is now part of core for all skins. Take care when upgrading that you don't use an older version of the Vector extension as this feature may conflict.
New 'mediawiki.ui' CSS module providing mw-ui-* styles for buttons and a compact vertical form layout.
HTMLForm supports a new display format 'vform' which applies this compact vertical layout and button styling. Special:PasswordReset uses this format.
New versions of login (Special:UserLogin) and create account (Special:UserLogin/signup) forms using the "vform" compact vertical form layout. These forms use new messages that assume a "Help logging in" link, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:P ... omizations; https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Account_ ... ce/Strings lists the message key changes.
(bug 23343) Implemented ability to apply IP blocks to the contents of X-Forwarded-For headers by adding a new configuration variable $wgApplyIpBlocksToXff (disabled by default).
The new hook 'APIGetPossibleErrors' to modify the list of possible errors was added.
(bug 25592) LogEventsList::showLogExtract() will now ignore various Pager-related WebRequest parameters by default, as this is overwhelmingly likely to be what was intended by users of the method. If any caller wishes to use these parameters, the new param 'useRequestParams' may be set to true.
mw.util.addPortletLink: Tooltip is no longer required to be plain (without an accesskey in it already). As such it now rountrips. Creating a link with a message as tooltip, grabbing the title attribute and using it to create another portlet will work as expected.
(bug 6747) {{ROOTPAGENAME}} introduced, contains the name of the topmost page without namespace.
(bug 45535) introduced the new 'LanguageLinks' hook for manipulating the language links associated with a page before display.
Chosen (http://harvesthq.github.io/chosen/) was added as module 'jquery.chosen'
HTMLForm will turn multiselect checkboxes into a Chosen interface when setting cssclass 'mw-chosen'
rebuildLocalisationCache learned --lang option. Let you rebuild l10n caches of the specified languages instead of all of them.
New GetNewMessagesAlert hook allowing extensions to disable or modify the new messages alert
New wgUserNewMsgRevisionId JS global for logged in users. This will be null if the user has no new talk page messages. Otherwise it will be set to the revision ID of the oldest new talk page message. This will allow gadgets and extensions to create their own new message alerts on the client side.
mediawiki.log: Added log.warn wrapper (uses console.warn and console.trace).
mediawiki.log: Implemented log.deprecate. This method defines a property and uses ES5 getter/setter to emit a warning when they are used.
$wgCascadingRestrictionLevels was added, allowing one to specify restriction levels which can be cascading (previously 'sysop' was hard-coded as the only one).
XHTML5 support has been improved. If you set $wgMimeType = 'application/xhtml+xml' MediaWiki will try outputting markup acording to XHTML5 rules.
Altered hook 'ProtectionForm::save', adding the reason page protection is changed as third parameter.
New hook 'TitleSquidURLs' for manipulating the list of URLs to be purged from HTTP caches when a page is changed.
Changed the patrolling system to always show the link for patrolling in case the current revision is patrollable. This also removed the usage of the rcid URI parameters.
Oracle DB backend now supports Database Resident Connection Pooling (DRCP). Can be enabled by setting $wgDBOracleDRCP=true. Requires Oracle DB 11gR1 or above, enabled DRCP inside the DB itself and a propper connect string. More about DRCP can be found at: http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g ... -11gr1.php
Add a new parameter $patrolFooterShown to hook ArticleViewFooter so the hook handlers can take further action based on the status of the patrol footer
A new hook TitleQuickPermissions was added to allow overriding of quick permissions in the Title class.
LinkCache singleton can now be altered or cleared, letting one to specify another instance that does not rely on a database backend.
MediaWiki's PHPUnit tests can now use PHPUnit installed using composer --dev.
(bug 43689) The lists of templates used on the page and hidden categories it is a member of, shown below the edit form, are now collapsible (and collapsed by default).
Parser profiling data, formerly only available in the "NewPP limit report" HTML comment, is now also displayed at the bottom of page previews.
Added ParserLimitReportPrepare and ParserLimitReportFormat hooks, deprecated ParserLimitReport hook.
New user rights have been added to increase granularity in rights management for extensions such as OAuth:
editmyusercss controls whether a user may edit their own CSS subpages.
editmyuserjs controls whether a user may edit their own JS subpages.
viewmywatchlist controls whether a user may view their watchlist.
editmywatchlist controls whether a user may edit their watchlist.
viewmyprivateinfo controls whether a user may access their private information (e.g. registered email address, real name).
editmyprivateinfo controls whether a user may change their private information.
editmyoptions controls whether a user may change their preferences.
Add new hook AbortTalkPageEmailNotification, this will be used to determine whether to send the regular talk page email notification
Action classes registered in $wgActions are now also supported in the form of a callback (which returns an instance of Action) instead of providing the name of a subclass of Action.
(bug 46513) Vector: Add the collapsibleTabs script from the Vector extension.
Added $wgRecentChangesFlags for defining new flags for RecentChanges and watchlists.
(bug 40518) mw.toolbar: Implemented mw.toolbar.addButtons for adding multiplebutton objects in one call.
Rights used for the default protection levels ('sysop' and 'autoconfirmed') are now used just for that purpose, instead of overloading other rights. This allows easy granting of the ability to edit sysop-protected pages without also granting the ability to protect and unprotect.

(bug 8480) Allow handler specific parameters in galleries (like page number)
jquery.client: Add detection for Opera 15 and Internet Explorer 11.
Change tags (used by the AbuseFilter extension) are now shown on diff pages.
Change tag lists (shown on recent changes, watchlist, user contributions, history pages, diff pages) now include a link to Special:Tags to distinguish them from edit summaries.
Added a new method and hook, User::isEveryoneAllowed() and UserIsEveryoneAllowed, for use in situations where a "does everyone have this right?" check is used to avoid more expensive checks.
(bug 14431) Display "(No difference)" instead of an empty diff (when comparing revisions in the history or when previewing changes while editing).
New hook 'IsUploadAllowedFromUrl' is added which can be used to intercept uploads by URL, useful for blacklisting specific URLs
(bug 21912) Watchlist token implementation has been refactored and Special:ResetTokens was added to allow users to reset their tokens instead of presenting them in Preferences.
Special:PrefixIndex now lets you strip the searched prefix from the displayed titles. Given a list of articles named Bug1, Bug2, you can now transclude the list of bug numbers using: {{Special:PrefixIndex/Bug|stripprefix=1}}. The special page form received a new checkbox matching that option.
(bug 23580) Implement javascript callback interface "mw.hook".
(bug 30713) New mw.hook "wikipage.content".
(bug 40430) jquery.placeholder gets a new parameter to set the attribute value to be used.

mediawiki.util: addPortletLink now supports passing a jQuery object as nextnode.

Make thumb.php give HTTP redirects for file redirects
(bug 30607) Special:ListFiles can now show old versions of files. Additionally Special:AllMyUploads was introduced so the user can get a list of all things they have ever uploaded, even if it was subsequently overriden.
Introduced Special:MyFiles and Special:AllMyFiles as an alias for Special:MyUploads and Special:AllMyUploads respectively.
IPv6 addresses in X-Forwarded-For headers are now normalised before checking against allowed proxy lists.
Add deferrable update support for callback/closure.
Add TitleMove hook before page renames.
Revision deletion backend code is moved out of SpecialRevisiondelete
Added {{REVISIONSIZE}} variable to get the current size of a revision.
Add support for the LESS stylesheet language to ResourceLoader. LESS is a stylesheet language that compiles into CSS. ResourceLoader file modules may include LESS style files; ResourceLoader will compile these files into CSS before sending them to the client.
The $wgResourceLoaderLESSVars configuration variable is an associative array mapping variable names to string CSS values. These variables are considered declared for all LESS files. Additional variables may be registered by adding keys to the array.
$wgResourceLoaderLESSFunctions is an associative array of custom LESS function names to PHP callables. See <http://leafo.net/lessphp/docs/#custom_functions> for more details regarding custom functions.
$wgResourceLoaderLESSImportPaths is an array of file system paths. Files referenced in LESS '@import' statements are looked up here first.
ResourceLoader supports hashes as module cache invalidation trigger (instead of or in addition to timestamps).
Added $wgExtensionEntryPointListFiles for use in mergeMessageFileList.php.
Added a hook, APIQuerySiteInfoStatisticsInfo, to allow extensions to modify the output of the API query meta=siteinfo&siprop=statistics
Primary keys have been added to both the archive table and the externallinks tables.
Added $wgEnableParserLimitReporting to control whether the NewPP limit report is output in a HTML comment.
The 'UnwatchArticle' and 'WatchArticle' hooks now support a Status object instead of just a boolean return value to abort the hook.
Added a hook, SpecialWatchlistGetNonRevisionTypes, to allow extensions with custom recentchanges entries to hook into the Watchlist without clobbering each other.
A hidden, empty input field was added to the edit form, and any edit that fills it in will be rejected. This prevents against the simplest form of spambots. Previously in the "SimpleAntiSpam" extension by Ryan Schmidt.
populateRevisionLength.php maintenance script updated to also populate archive.ar_len field.
(bug 43571) DatabaseMySQLBase learned to list views, optionally filtered by a prefix. Also fixed PHPUnit test suite when using a MySQL backend containing views.

Configuration changes

$wgRedirectScript was removed. It was unused.
Removed $wgLocalMessageCacheSerialized, it is now always true.
$wgVectorUseIconWatch is now enabled by default.
$wgCascadingRestrictionLevels was added.
ftps, ssh, sftp, xmpp, sip, sips, tel, sms, bitcoin, magnet, urn, and geo have been whitelisted inside of $wgUrlProtocols.
$wgDocType and $wgDTD have been removed and are no longer used for the DOCTYPE.
$wgHtml5 is no longer used by core. Setting it to false will no longer disable HTML5. It is still set to true for extension compatibility but doing so in extensions is deprecated.
$wgXhtmlDefaultNamespace is no longer used by core. Setting it will no longer change the xmlns used by MediaWiki. Reliance on this variable by extensions is deprecated.
$wgHandheldStyle was removed.
$wgHandheldForIPhone was removed.
$wgJsMimeType is no longer used by core. Most usage has been removed since HTML output is now exclusively HTML5.
$wgDBOracleDRCP added. True enables persistent connection with DRCP on Oracle.
$wgLogAutopatrol added to allow disabling logging of autopatrol edits in the logging table. default for $wgLogAutopatrol is true.
The 'edit' right no longer allows for editing a user's own CSS and JS.
New rights 'editmyusercss', 'editmyuserjs', 'viewmywatchlist', 'editmywatchlist', 'viewmyprivateinfo', 'editmyprivateinfo', and 'editmyoptions' restrict actions that were formerly allowed by default. They have been added to the default for $wgGroupPermissions['*'].
The 'editprotected' right no longer allows bypassing of all page protection restrictions. Any group using it for this purpose will now need to have all the individual rights listed in $wgRestrictionTypes for the same effect.
The 'protect' and 'autoconfirmed' rights are no longer used for the default page protection levels. The rights 'editprotected' and 'editsemiprotected' are now used for this purpose instead.
(bug 40866) wgOldChangeTagsIndex removed.
$wgNoFollowDomainExceptions now only matches entire domains. For example, an entry for 'bar.com' will still match 'foo.bar.com' but not 'foobar.com'.

The checkbox for staying in HTTPS displayed on the login form when $wgSecureLogin is enabled has been removed. Instead, whether the user stays in HTTPS will be determined based on the user's preferences, and whether they came from HTTPS or not.
$wgRC2UDPAddress, $wgRC2UDPInterwikiPrefix, $wgRC2UDPOmitBots, $wgRC2UDPPort, and $wgRC2UDPPrefix configuration options have been deprecated in favor of a $wgRCFeeds configuration array. $wgRCFeeds makes both the format and destination of recent change notifications customizable, and allows for multiple destinations to be specified.
(bug 53862) portal-url, currentevents-url and helppage have been removed from the default Sidebar.
The 'vector-simplesearch' preference is now enabled by default. Previously it was only enabled if the Vector extension was installed.

Default value of $wgMaxShellMemory has been tripled (it's now 300 MB).

Bug fixes

Disable Special:PasswordReset when $wgEnableEmail is false. Previously one could still navigate to the page by entering the URL directly.
(bug 47138) Fixed a fatal error when a blocked user tries to automatically create an account on login due external authentication in some circumstances.
(bug 23393) HTML <hN> headings containing line breaks are now handled correctly.
(bug 45803) Whitespace within == Headline == syntax and within <hN> headings is now non-significant and not preserved in the HTML output.
(bug 47218) Special:BlockList now handles correctly user names with spaces when passed as subpage.
Pager's properly validate which fields are allowed to be sorted on.
mw.util.tooltipAccessKeyRegexp: The regex now matches "option-" as well. Support for Mac "option" was added in 1.16, but the regex was never updated.
(bug 46768) Usernames of blocking users now display correctly, even if numeric.
(bug 39590) Self-transclusions now show the most up to date result always after save instead of being a revision behind.
A bias in wfRandomString() toward digits 1-7 has been corrected. Generated strings will now start with digits 0 and 8-f as often as they should.
(bug 45371) Removed Parser_LinkHooks and CoreLinkFunctions classes.
(bug 41545) Allow <kbd>, <samp>, and <var> to be nested like allowed in html.

(bug 46749) Broken files tracking category removed from pages if an image with that name is uploaded.
(bug 14176) System messages that are empty were previously incorrectly treated as non-existent, causing a fallback to the default. This stopped users from overriding system messages to make them blank.
(bug 48319) action=parse no longer returns an error if passed none of 'oldid', 'pageid', 'page', 'title', and 'text' (e.g. if only passed 'summary'). A warning will instead be issued if 'title' is non-default, unless no props are requested.
Special:Recentchangeslinked will now include upload log entries
(bug 41281) Fixed ugly output if file size could not be extracted for multi-page media.
(bug 50315) list=logevents API module will now output log entries by anonymous users.
(bug 38911) Handle headers with rowspan in jquery.tablesorter
(bug 658) Converted the table of contents on wiki pages from <table> to <div> and adjusted skin CSS accordingly. The CSS was carefully crafted to be backwards-compatible in all reasonable cases (uses of the __TOC__ magic word, the #toc CSS id and the .toc CSS class). However, particularly bad abuse of the id or the class can possibly break.
CSSJanus now supports rgb, hsl, rgba, and hsla color syntaxes.
Special:Listfiles can no longer be sorted by image name when filtering by user in miser mode.
(bug 49074) CSSJanus: Handle values of border-radius correctly.
Handle relative inclusions ({{../name}}) in main namespace with subpages enabled correctly (previously MediaWiki tried to include Template:Parent/name instead of just Parent/name).
Added $wgAPIUselessQueryPages to allow extensions to flag their query pages for non-inclusion in ApiQueryQueryPages.
(bug 50870) mediawiki.notification: Notification area should remain visible when scrolled down.
(bug 13438) Special:MIMESearch no longer an expensive special page.
(bug 48342) Fixed a fatal error when $wgValidateAllHtml is set to true and the function apache_request_headers() function is not available.

(bug 51891) Fixed PHP notice on Special:PagesWithProp when no properties are defined.
(bug 52006) Corrected documentation of $wgTranscludeCacheExpiry.
(bug 52077) The APIEditBeforeSave hook is giving the content of the whole revision as second argument now, rather than just the current section.
(bug 49694) $wgSpamRegex is now also applied on the new section headline text adding a new topic on a page
(bug 41756) Improve treatment of multiple comments on a blank line.

(bug 51742) Add data-sort-value for better sorting of hitcounts Special:Tags
(bug 26811) On DB error pages, server hostnames are now hidden when both $wgShowHostnames and $wgShowSQLErrors are false.
(bug 6200) line breaks in <blockquote> are handled like they are in <div>

(bug 56770) mw.util.addPortletLink: Check length before access array index.
(bug 57289) Logging in with a temporary password is no longer broken when $wgSecureLogin is true.

API changes

(bug 25553) The JSON output formatter now leaves forward slashes unescaped to improve human readability of URLs and similar strings. Also, a "utf8" option is now provided to use UTF-8 encoding instead of hex escape codes for most non-ASCII characters.
(bug 46626) xmldoublequote parameter was removed. Because of a bug, the parameter has had no effect since MediaWiki 1.16, and so its removal is unlikely to impact existing clients.
(bug 47216) action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=skins will now indicate which skin is the default and which are unusable (e.g. listed in $wgSkipSkins).
(bug 25325) Added support for wlshow filtering (bots/anon/minor/patrolled) to action=feedwatchlist.
WDDX formatted output will actually be formatted (and normal output will no longer be), and will no longer choke on booleans.
action=opensearch no longer silently ignores the format parameter.
action=opensearch now supports format=jsonfm.
list=usercontribs&ucprop=ids will now include the parent revision id.
(bug 47219) Allow specifying change type of Wikipedia feed items
prop=imageinfo now allows setting iiurlheight without setting iiurlwidth
prop=info now adds the content model and page language of the title.
New upload log entries will now contain information on the relevant image (sha1 and timestamp).
(bug 49239) action=parse now can parse in preview and section preview modes.
(bug 49259) action=patrol now accepts revision ids.
(bug 48129) list=blocks&bkip= now correctly handles IPv6 CIDR ranges and honors $wgBlockCIDRLimit. Note any clients passing invalid values to bkip will now receive an error, rather than the previous behavior listing all user blocks.
(bug 48201) action=parse&text=foo now assumes wikitext if no title is given, rather than using the content model of the page "API".
action=watch no longer silently ignores hook abort.
(bug 50785) action=purge with forcelinkupdate=1 no longer queues refreshLinks jobs in the job queue for link table updates of pages that use the given page as a template. Instead, forcerecursivelinkupdate=1 is introduced and should be used if that behaviour is desirable.
The 'debugLog' property (enabled by $wgDebugToolbar) no longer sets the log entry values through ApiResult::content but directly. This changes the JSON output from an array of objects with content in '*' to an array of strings with the content.
(bug 51342) prop=imageinfo iicontinue now contains the dbkey, not the text version of the title.
(bug 52538) action=edit will now use empty text instead of the contents of section 0 when passed prependtext or appendtext with section=new.
Support for the 'gettoken' parameter to action=block and action=unblock, deprecated since 1.20, has been removed.
(bug 49090) Token-getting functions will fail when using jsonp callbacks.
(bug 52699) action=upload returns normalized file name on warning "exists-normalized" instead of filename to be uploaded to.
(bug 53884) action=edit will now return an error when the specified section does not exist in the page.
Added meta=filerepoinfo API module for getting information about foreign file repositories, and related ForeignAPIRepo methods getInfo and getApiUrl.
The new query module list=allfileusages to enumerate file usages was added.

Languages updated

MediaWiki supports over 350 languages. Many localisations are updated regularly. Below only new and removed languages are listed, as well as changes to languages because of Bugzilla reports.

(bug 47099) Plural rules were updated to those from CLDR 24 for Manx (gv).
(bug 54514) Explicit plural forms now work for Russian.
(bug 46422) Explicit plural forms for languages that use a custom implementation for Language::convertPlural now work correctly.
Batak Toba (bbc-latn) added.
(bug 46751) Made Buryat (Russia) (буряад) (bxr) fallback to Russian.

Other changes

redirect.php was removed. It was unused.
ClickTracking integration was dropped from the mediaWiki.user.bucket JavaScript function. The 'tracked' option is now ignored.
Event namespace used by jquery.makeCollapsible has been changed from 'mw-collapse' to 'mw-collapsible' for consistency with the module name.
The Quickbar feature of the legacy skin model and the last remnants of it throughout the code base have been removed.
Externaledit/externaldiff preference was removed. Very few users used this feature, and improper configuration can actually prevent a user from editing
Calling Linker methods using a skin will now output deprecation warnings.
(bug 46680) "Return to" links are no longer tagged with rel="next".
HipHop compiler (hphpc) support was removed. HipHop VM support (hhvm) was added.
A new Special:Redirect page was added, providing lookup by revision ID, user ID, or file name. The old Special:Filepath page was reimplemented to redirect through Special:Redirect.
Monobook: Removed the old conditional stylesheets for Opera 6, 7 and 9.
Support for XHTML 1.0 has been removed. MediaWiki now only outputs (X)HTML5.
wikibits: User-agent related globals have been deprecated. The following properties now default to false and emit mw.log.warn: is_gecko, is_chrome_mac, is_chrome, webkit_version, is_safari_win, is_safari, webkit_match, is_ff2, ff2_bugs, is_ff2_win, is_ff2_x11, opera95_bugs, opera7_bugs, opera6_bugs, is_opera_95, is_opera_preseven, is_opera, and ie6_bugs.
(bug 48276) MediaWiki will now flash a confirmation message upon successfully editing a page.
(bug 40785) mediawiki.legacy.ajax has been marked as deprecated. The following properties now emit mw.log.warn when accessed: sajax_debug, sajax_init_object, sajax_do_call and wfSupportsAjax.
Methods Title::userCanEditCssSubpage and Title::userCanEditJsSubpage, deprecated since 1.19, have been removed.
(bug 50134) Hook functions are no longer required to return a value. When a hook function does not return a value (or when it returns an explicit null), processing continues. To abort the hook, a hook function must return an explicit, boolean false or a string error message. Other falsey values are tantamount to a 'return true' in earlier versions of MediaWiki.
(bug 48256) The 'editsection-brackets' optional message was removed. Section edit links' brackets can now be customized using CSS by styling span.mw-editsection-bracket.
The usePatrol function in ChangesList has been marked as deprecated.
(bug 50785) A "null edit", that is, a save action in which no changes to the page text are made and no revision recorded, will no longer send refreshLinks jobs to the job table to update pages which use the edited page as a template.
The LivePreviewPrepare and LivePreviewDone events triggered on "jQuery( mw )" have been deprecated in favour of using mw.hook.
The 'showjumplinks' user preference has been removed, jump links are now always included.
Methods RecentChange::notifyRC2UDP, RecentChange::sendToUDP, and RecentChange::cleanupForIRC have been deprecated, as it is now the responsibility of classes implementing the RCFeedFormatter and RCFeedEngine interfaces to implement the formatting and delivery for recent change notifications.
SpecialPrefixindex methods namespacePrefixForm() and showPrefixChunk() have been made protected. They were accepting form variance arguments, this is now using properties in the SpecialPrefixindex class.
(bug 49629) The hook ExtractThumbParamaters has been deprecated in favour of media handler overriding MediaHandler::parseParamString.
(bug 46512) The collapsibleNav feature from the Vector extension has been moved to the Vector skin in core.
SpecialRecentChanges::addRecentChangesJS() function has been renamed to addModules() and made protected.
Methods WatchAction::doWatch and WatchAction::doUnwatch now return a Status object instead of a boolean.
Information boxes (CSS classes errorbox, warningbox, successbox) have been made more subtle.
Code specific to the Math extension was marked as deprecated.
mediawiki.util: mw.util.wikiGetlink has been renamed to getUrl. (The old name still works, but is deprecated.)

Breaking changes

(bug 41729) Display editsection links next to headings. Also change their class name from .editsection to .mw-editsection and place them at the end of the heading element instead of the beginning. Client-side code and screen-scrapers will have to be adjusted to handle both cases (old HTML will still be visible on cached page renders until they are purged); extensions using the DoEditSectionLink or EditSectionLink hooks might need adjustments as well.
(bug 55818) Removed undocumented 'Debug' hook in wfDebug. This resolves an infinite loop when using $wgDebugFunctionEntry = true.
action=parse no longer returns all langlinks for the page with prop=langlinks by default. The new effectivelanglinks parameter will request that the LanguageLinks hook be called to determine the effective language links.
list=allpages, list=langbacklinks, and prop=langlinks do not apply the new LanguageLinks hook, and thus only consider language links stored in the database.
Implementation of MediaWiki's JS and JSON value encoding has changed:
MediaWiki no longer supports PHP installations in which the native JSON extension is missing or disabled.
XmlJsCode objects can no longer be nested inside objects or arrays. (For Xml::encodeJsCall(), this individually applies to each argument.)
The sets of characters escaped by default, along with the precise escape sequences used, have changed (except for the Xml::escapeJsString() function, which is now deprecated).
The Services_JSON class has been removed. If necessary, be sure to upgrade affected extensions at the same time (e.g. Collection).
Legacy skins Simple, MySkin, Chick, Standard and Nostalgia were all removed. (Nostalgia was moved to an extension.) The SkinLegacy and LegacyTemplate classes that supported them were removed as well and are now a part of the Nostalgia extension.
The "ExternalAuth" authentication subsystem was removed, along with its associated globals of $wgExternalAuthType, $wgExternalAuthConf, $wgAutocreatePolicy and $wgAllowPrefChange. Affected users are encouraged to use AuthPlugin for external authentication/authorization needs.
mw.util.tooltipAccessKeyRegexp: The match group for the accesskey character is now $6 instead of $5.
meta keywords are no longer supported. A <meta name="keywords" will no longer be output and OutputPage::addKeyword no longer exists.
The EditSectionLink hook was removed after being deprecated since MediaWiki 1.14. Use DoEditSectionLink instead.
(bug 50310) wikibits: Drop support for mwCustomEditButtons. It defaults to an empty array and emits mw.log.warn when accessed.
Special:Disambiguations has been removed from MediaWiki core. Functions related to disambiguation pages are now handled by the Disambiguator extension (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Disambiguator) (bug 35981).
The 'mediawiki.legacy.wikiprintable' module has been removed. The skins/common/wikiprintable.css file no longer exists. Return value of Skin#commonPrintStylesheet is ignored. Please use the 'mediawiki.legacy.commonPrint' module instead or base your skin on SkinTemplate.
The module 'mediawiki.legacy.IEFixes' has been removed as it was unused. The file skins/common/IEFixes.js remains but is only used by wikibits. The file never contained any re-usable components. To use it in a skin, load 'mediawiki.legacy.wikibits' (which IEFixes depends on) and that will import IEFixes automatically if user agent conditions are met.

New features

You can now install extensions using Composer. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Composer
(bug 44525) mediawiki.jqueryMsg can now parse (whitelisted) HTML elements and attributes.
(bug 33454) Language::sprintfDate now has a timezone parameter, and supports the "eIOPTZ" formatting characters.
EditWarning: A warning is shown when an editor leaves the edit form without saving (enabled by default, users can opt-out via the 'useeditwarning' preference). This feature was moved from the Vector extension, and is now part of core for all skins. Take care when upgrading that you don't use an older version of the Vector extension as this feature may conflict.
New 'mediawiki.ui' CSS module providing mw-ui-* styles for buttons and a compact vertical form layout.
HTMLForm supports a new display format 'vform' which applies this compact vertical layout and button styling. Special:PasswordReset uses this format.
New versions of login (Special:UserLogin) and create account (Special:UserLogin/signup) forms using the "vform" compact vertical form layout. These forms use new messages that assume a "Help logging in" link, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:P ... omizations; https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Account_ ... ce/Strings lists the message key changes.
(bug 23343) Implemented ability to apply IP blocks to the contents of X-Forwarded-For headers by adding a new configuration variable $wgApplyIpBlocksToXff (disabled by default).
The new hook 'APIGetPossibleErrors' to modify the list of possible errors was added.
(bug 25592) LogEventsList::showLogExtract() will now ignore various Pager-related WebRequest parameters by default, as this is overwhelmingly likely to be what was intended by users of the method. If any caller wishes to use these parameters, the new param 'useRequestParams' may be set to true.
mw.util.addPortletLink: Tooltip is no longer required to be plain (without an accesskey in it already). As such it now rountrips. Creating a link with a message as tooltip, grabbing the title attribute and using it to create another portlet will work as expected.
(bug 6747) {{ROOTPAGENAME}} introduced, contains the name of the topmost page without namespace.
(bug 45535) introduced the new 'LanguageLinks' hook for manipulating the language links associated with a page before display.
Chosen (http://harvesthq.github.io/chosen/) was added as module 'jquery.chosen'
HTMLForm will turn multiselect checkboxes into a Chosen interface when setting cssclass 'mw-chosen'
rebuildLocalisationCache learned --lang option. Let you rebuild l10n caches of the specified languages instead of all of them.
New GetNewMessagesAlert hook allowing extensions to disable or modify the new messages alert
New wgUserNewMsgRevisionId JS global for logged in users. This will be null if the user has no new talk page messages. Otherwise it will be set to the revision ID of the oldest new talk page message. This will allow gadgets and extensions to create their own new message alerts on the client side.
mediawiki.log: Added log.warn wrapper (uses console.warn and console.trace).
mediawiki.log: Implemented log.deprecate. This method defines a property and uses ES5 getter/setter to emit a warning when they are used.
$wgCascadingRestrictionLevels was added, allowing one to specify restriction levels which can be cascading (previously 'sysop' was hard-coded as the only one).
XHTML5 support has been improved. If you set $wgMimeType = 'application/xhtml+xml' MediaWiki will try outputting markup acording to XHTML5 rules.
Altered hook 'ProtectionForm::save', adding the reason page protection is changed as third parameter.
New hook 'TitleSquidURLs' for manipulating the list of URLs to be purged from HTTP caches when a page is changed.
Changed the patrolling system to always show the link for patrolling in case the current revision is patrollable. This also removed the usage of the rcid URI parameters.
Oracle DB backend now supports Database Resident Connection Pooling (DRCP). Can be enabled by setting $wgDBOracleDRCP=true. Requires Oracle DB 11gR1 or above, enabled DRCP inside the DB itself and a propper connect string. More about DRCP can be found at: http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g ... -11gr1.php
Add a new parameter $patrolFooterShown to hook ArticleViewFooter so the hook handlers can take further action based on the status of the patrol footer
A new hook TitleQuickPermissions was added to allow overriding of quick permissions in the Title class.
LinkCache singleton can now be altered or cleared, letting one to specify another instance that does not rely on a database backend.
MediaWiki's PHPUnit tests can now use PHPUnit installed using composer --dev.
(bug 43689) The lists of templates used on the page and hidden categories it is a member of, shown below the edit form, are now collapsible (and collapsed by default).
Parser profiling data, formerly only available in the "NewPP limit report" HTML comment, is now also displayed at the bottom of page previews.
Added ParserLimitReportPrepare and ParserLimitReportFormat hooks, deprecated ParserLimitReport hook.
New user rights have been added to increase granularity in rights management for extensions such as OAuth:
editmyusercss controls whether a user may edit their own CSS subpages.
editmyuserjs controls whether a user may edit their own JS subpages.
viewmywatchlist controls whether a user may view their watchlist.
editmywatchlist controls whether a user may edit their watchlist.
viewmyprivateinfo controls whether a user may access their private information (e.g. registered email address, real name).
editmyprivateinfo controls whether a user may change their private information.
editmyoptions controls whether a user may change their preferences.
Add new hook AbortTalkPageEmailNotification, this will be used to determine whether to send the regular talk page email notification
Action classes registered in $wgActions are now also supported in the form of a callback (which returns an instance of Action) instead of providing the name of a subclass of Action.
(bug 46513) Vector: Add the collapsibleTabs script from the Vector extension.
Added $wgRecentChangesFlags for defining new flags for RecentChanges and watchlists.
(bug 40518) mw.toolbar: Implemented mw.toolbar.addButtons for adding multiplebutton objects in one call.
Rights used for the default protection levels ('sysop' and 'autoconfirmed') are now used just for that purpose, instead of overloading other rights. This allows easy granting of the ability to edit sysop-protected pages without also granting the ability to protect and unprotect.
(bug 48256) Make brackets in section edit links accessible to CSS. They are now wrapped in <span class="mw-editsection-bracket" />.
(bug 8480) Allow handler specific parameters in galleries (like page number)
jquery.client: Add detection for Opera 15 and Internet Explorer 11.
Change tags (used by the AbuseFilter extension) are now shown on diff pages.
Change tag lists (shown on recent changes, watchlist, user contributions, history pages, diff pages) now include a link to Special:Tags to distinguish them from edit summaries.
Added a new method and hook, User::isEveryoneAllowed() and UserIsEveryoneAllowed, for use in situations where a "does everyone have this right?" check is used to avoid more expensive checks.
(bug 14431) Display "(No difference)" instead of an empty diff (when comparing revisions in the history or when previewing changes while editing).
New hook 'IsUploadAllowedFromUrl' is added which can be used to intercept uploads by URL, useful for blacklisting specific URLs
(bug 21912) Watchlist token implementation has been refactored and Special:ResetTokens was added to allow users to reset their tokens instead of presenting them in Preferences.
Special:PrefixIndex now lets you strip the searched prefix from the displayed titles. Given a list of articles named Bug1, Bug2, you can now transclude the list of bug numbers using: {{Special:PrefixIndex/Bug|stripprefix=1}}. The special page form received a new checkbox matching that option.
(bug 23580) Implement javascript callback interface "mw.hook".
(bug 30713) New mw.hook "wikipage.content".
(bug 40430) jquery.placeholder gets a new parameter to set the attribute value to be used.
$wgHTCPMulticastRouting renamed $wgHTCPRouting since it accepts unicast.
$wgHTCPRouting rules can now be passed an array of hosts/ports to send purge too. Can be used whenever several multicast group could be interested by a specific purge.
(bug 25931) Add Special:RandomInCategory.
mediawiki.util: addPortletLink now supports passing a jQuery object as nextnode.
<wbr> can now be used inside WikiText.
WebResponse::setcookie is much more featureful. Callers using PHP's setcookie() or setrawcookie() should begin using this instead.
New hook WebResponseSetCookie, called from WebResponse::setcookie().
New hook ResetSessionID, called when the session id is reset.
Add a mode parameter to <gallery> tag with potential options of "traditional", "nolines", "packed", "packed-overlay", or "packed-hover".
(bug 47399) A success message is now displayed after changing the password.
Make thumb.php give HTTP redirects for file redirects
(bug 30607) Special:ListFiles can now show old versions of files. Additionally Special:AllMyUploads was introduced so the user can get a list of all things they have ever uploaded, even if it was subsequently overriden.
Introduced Special:MyFiles and Special:AllMyFiles as an alias for Special:MyUploads and Special:AllMyUploads respectively.
IPv6 addresses in X-Forwarded-For headers are now normalised before checking against allowed proxy lists.
Add deferrable update support for callback/closure.
Add TitleMove hook before page renames.
Revision deletion backend code is moved out of SpecialRevisiondelete
Added {{REVISIONSIZE}} variable to get the current size of a revision.
Add support for the LESS stylesheet language to ResourceLoader. LESS is a stylesheet language that compiles into CSS. ResourceLoader file modules may include LESS style files; ResourceLoader will compile these files into CSS before sending them to the client.
The $wgResourceLoaderLESSVars configuration variable is an associative array mapping variable names to string CSS values. These variables are considered declared for all LESS files. Additional variables may be registered by adding keys to the array.
$wgResourceLoaderLESSFunctions is an associative array of custom LESS function names to PHP callables. See <http://leafo.net/lessphp/docs/#custom_functions> for more details regarding custom functions.
$wgResourceLoaderLESSImportPaths is an array of file system paths. Files referenced in LESS '@import' statements are looked up here first.
ResourceLoader supports hashes as module cache invalidation trigger (instead of or in addition to timestamps).
Added $wgExtensionEntryPointListFiles for use in mergeMessageFileList.php.
Added a hook, APIQuerySiteInfoStatisticsInfo, to allow extensions to modify the output of the API query meta=siteinfo&siprop=statistics
Primary keys have been added to both the archive table and the externallinks tables.
Added $wgEnableParserLimitReporting to control whether the NewPP limit report is output in a HTML comment.
The 'UnwatchArticle' and 'WatchArticle' hooks now support a Status object instead of just a boolean return value to abort the hook.
Added a hook, SpecialWatchlistGetNonRevisionTypes, to allow extensions with custom recentchanges entries to hook into the Watchlist without clobbering each other.
A hidden, empty input field was added to the edit form, and any edit that fills it in will be rejected. This prevents against the simplest form of spambots. Previously in the "SimpleAntiSpam" extension by Ryan Schmidt.
populateRevisionLength.php maintenance script updated to also populate archive.ar_len field.
(bug 43571) DatabaseMySQLBase learned to list views, optionally filtered by a prefix. Also fixed PHPUnit test suite when using a MySQL backend containing views.

Configuration changes

$wgRedirectScript was removed. It was unused.
Removed $wgLocalMessageCacheSerialized, it is now always true.
$wgVectorUseIconWatch is now enabled by default.
$wgCascadingRestrictionLevels was added.

$wgDocType and $wgDTD have been removed and are no longer used for the DOCTYPE.
$wgHtml5 is no longer used by core. Setting it to false will no longer disable HTML5. It is still set to true for extension compatibility but doing so in extensions is deprecated.
$wgXhtmlDefaultNamespace is no longer used by core. Setting it will no longer change the xmlns used by MediaWiki. Reliance on this variable by extensions is deprecated.
$wgHandheldStyle was removed.
$wgHandheldForIPhone was removed.
$wgJsMimeType is no longer used by core. Most usage has been removed since HTML output is now exclusively HTML5.
$wgDBOracleDRCP added. True enables persistent connection with DRCP on Oracle.
$wgLogAutopatrol added to allow disabling logging of autopatrol edits in the logging table. default for $wgLogAutopatrol is true.
The 'edit' right no longer allows for editing a user's own CSS and JS.
New rights 'editmyusercss', 'editmyuserjs', 'viewmywatchlist', 'editmywatchlist', 'viewmyprivateinfo', 'editmyprivateinfo', and 'editmyoptions' restrict actions that were formerly allowed by default. They have been added to the default for $wgGroupPermissions['*'].
The 'editprotected' right no longer allows bypassing of all page protection restrictions. Any group using it for this purpose will now need to have all the individual rights listed in $wgRestrictionTypes for the same effect.
The 'protect' and 'autoconfirmed' rights are no longer used for the default page protection levels. The rights 'editprotected' and 'editsemiprotected' are now used for this purpose instead.
(bug 40866) wgOldChangeTagsIndex removed.
$wgNoFollowDomainExceptions now only matches entire domains. For example, an entry for 'bar.com' will still match 'foo.bar.com' but not 'foobar.com'.
$wgCopyUploadTimeout and $wgCopyUploadAsyncTimeout added to change the timeout times for fetching the file during upload by url.
New key added to $wgGalleryOptions - $wgGalleryOptions['mode'] to set default gallery mode.
New hook 'GalleryGetModes' to allow extensions to make new gallery modes.
The checkbox for staying in HTTPS displayed on the login form when $wgSecureLogin is enabled has been removed. Instead, whether the user stays in HTTPS will be determined based on the user's preferences, and whether they came from HTTPS or not.
$wgRC2UDPAddress, $wgRC2UDPInterwikiPrefix, $wgRC2UDPOmitBots, $wgRC2UDPPort, and $wgRC2UDPPrefix configuration options have been deprecated in favor of a $wgRCFeeds configuration array. $wgRCFeeds makes both the format and destination of recent change notifications customizable, and allows for multiple destinations to be specified.
(bug 53862) portal-url, currentevents-url and helppage have been removed from the default Sidebar.
The 'vector-simplesearch' preference is now enabled by default. Previously it was only enabled if the Vector extension was installed.

Default value of $wgMaxShellMemory has been tripled (it's now 300 MB).

Bug fixes

Disable Special:PasswordReset when $wgEnableEmail is false. Previously one could still navigate to the page by entering the URL directly.
(bug 47138) Fixed a fatal error when a blocked user tries to automatically create an account on login due external authentication in some circumstances.
(bug 23393) HTML <hN> headings containing line breaks are now handled correctly.
(bug 45803) Whitespace within == Headline == syntax and within <hN> headings is now non-significant and not preserved in the HTML output.
(bug 47218) Special:BlockList now handles correctly user names with spaces when passed as subpage.
Pager's properly validate which fields are allowed to be sorted on.
mw.util.tooltipAccessKeyRegexp: The regex now matches "option-" as well. Support for Mac "option" was added in 1.16, but the regex was never updated.
(bug 46768) Usernames of blocking users now display correctly, even if numeric.
(bug 39590) Self-transclusions now show the most up to date result always after save instead of being a revision behind.
A bias in wfRandomString() toward digits 1-7 has been corrected. Generated strings will now start with digits 0 and 8-f as often as they should.
(bug 45371) Removed Parser_LinkHooks and CoreLinkFunctions classes.
(bug 41545) Allow <kbd>, <samp>, and <var> to be nested like allowed in html.

(bug 46749) Broken files tracking category removed from pages if an image with that name is uploaded.
(bug 14176) System messages that are empty were previously incorrectly treated as non-existent, causing a fallback to the default. This stopped users from overriding system messages to make them blank.
(bug 48319) action=parse no longer returns an error if passed none of 'oldid', 'pageid', 'page', 'title', and 'text' (e.g. if only passed 'summary'). A warning will instead be issued if 'title' is non-default, unless no props are requested.
Special:Recentchangeslinked will now include upload log entries
(bug 41281) Fixed ugly output if file size could not be extracted for multi-page media.
(bug 50315) list=logevents API module will now output log entries by anonymous users.
(bug 38911) Handle headers with rowspan in jquery.tablesorter
(bug 658) Converted the table of contents on wiki pages from <table> to <div> and adjusted skin CSS accordingly. The CSS was carefully crafted to be backwards-compatible in all reasonable cases (uses of the __TOC__ magic word, the #toc CSS id and the .toc CSS class). However, particularly bad abuse of the id or the class can possibly break.
CSSJanus now supports rgb, hsl, rgba, and hsla color syntaxes.
Special:Listfiles can no longer be sorted by image name when filtering by user in miser mode.
(bug 49074) CSSJanus: Handle values of border-radius correctly.

Added $wgAPIUselessQueryPages to allow extensions to flag their query pages for non-inclusion in ApiQueryQueryPages.
(bug 50870) mediawiki.notification: Notification area should remain visible when scrolled down.
(bug 13438) Special:MIMESearch no longer an expensive special page.

(bug 51891) Fixed PHP notice on Special:PagesWithProp when no properties are defined.
(bug 52006) Corrected documentation of $wgTranscludeCacheExpiry.
(bug 52077) The APIEditBeforeSave hook is giving the content of the whole revision as second argument now, rather than just the current section.
(bug 49694) $wgSpamRegex is now also applied on the new section headline text adding a new topic on a page
(bug 41756) Improve treatment of multiple comments on a blank line.

(bug 56770) mw.util.addPortletLink: Check length before access array index.
(bug 57289) Logging in with a temporary password is no longer broken when $wgSecureLogin is true.

API changes

(bug 25553) The JSON output formatter now leaves forward slashes unescaped to improve human readability of URLs and similar strings. Also, a "utf8" option is now provided to use UTF-8 encoding instead of hex escape codes for most non-ASCII characters.
(bug 46626) xmldoublequote parameter was removed. Because of a bug, the parameter has had no effect since MediaWiki 1.16, and so its removal is unlikely to impact existing clients.
(bug 47216) action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=skins will now indicate which skin is the default and which are unusable (e.g. listed in $wgSkipSkins).
(bug 25325) Added support for wlshow filtering (bots/anon/minor/patrolled) to action=feedwatchlist.
WDDX formatted output will actually be formatted (and normal output will no longer be), and will no longer choke on booleans.
action=opensearch no longer silently ignores the format parameter.
action=opensearch now supports format=jsonfm.
list=usercontribs&ucprop=ids will now include the parent revision id.
(bug 47219) Allow specifying change type of Wikipedia feed items
prop=imageinfo now allows setting iiurlheight without setting iiurlwidth
prop=info now adds the content model and page language of the title.
New upload log entries will now contain information on the relevant image (sha1 and timestamp).
(bug 49239) action=parse now can parse in preview and section preview modes.
(bug 49259) action=patrol now accepts revision ids.
(bug 48129) list=blocks&bkip= now correctly handles IPv6 CIDR ranges and honors $wgBlockCIDRLimit. Note any clients passing invalid values to bkip will now receive an error, rather than the previous behavior listing all user blocks.
(bug 48201) action=parse&text=foo now assumes wikitext if no title is given, rather than using the content model of the page "API".
action=watch no longer silently ignores hook abort.
(bug 50785) action=purge with forcelinkupdate=1 no longer queues refreshLinks jobs in the job queue for link table updates of pages that use the given page as a template. Instead, forcerecursivelinkupdate=1 is introduced and should be used if that behaviour is desirable.
The 'debugLog' property (enabled by $wgDebugToolbar) no longer sets the log entry values through ApiResult::content but directly. This changes the JSON output from an array of objects with content in '*' to an array of strings with the content.
(bug 51342) prop=imageinfo iicontinue now contains the dbkey, not the text version of the title.
(bug 52538) action=edit will now use empty text instead of the contents of section 0 when passed prependtext or appendtext with section=new.
Support for the 'gettoken' parameter to action=block and action=unblock, deprecated since 1.20, has been removed.
(bug 49090) Token-getting functions will fail when using jsonp callbacks.

(bug 53884) action=edit will now return an error when the specified section does not exist in the page.
Added meta=filerepoinfo API module for getting information about foreign file repositories, and related ForeignAPIRepo methods getInfo and getApiUrl.
The new query module list=allfileusages to enumerate file usages was added.

Languages updated

(bug 47099) Plural rules were updated to those from CLDR 24 for Manx (gv).
(bug 54514) Explicit plural forms now work for Russian.
(bug 46422) Explicit plural forms for languages that use a custom implementation for Language::convertPlural now work correctly.
Batak Toba (bbc-latn) added.
(bug 46751) Made Buryat (Russia) (буряад) (bxr) fallback to Russian.

Other changes

redirect.php was removed. It was unused.
ClickTracking integration was dropped from the mediaWiki.user.bucket JavaScript function. The 'tracked' option is now ignored.

The Quickbar feature of the legacy skin model and the last remnants of it throughout the code base have been removed.
Externaledit/externaldiff preference was removed. Very few users used this feature, and improper configuration can actually prevent a user from editing
Calling Linker methods using a skin will now output deprecation warnings.
(bug 46680) "Return to" links are no longer tagged with rel="next".
HipHop compiler (hphpc) support was removed. HipHop VM support (hhvm) was added.
A new Special:Redirect page was added, providing lookup by revision ID, user ID, or file name. The old Special:Filepath page was reimplemented to redirect through Special:Redirect.
Monobook: Removed the old conditional stylesheets for Opera 6, 7 and 9.
Support for XHTML 1.0 has been removed. MediaWiki now only outputs (X)HTML5.
wikibits: User-agent related globals have been deprecated. The following properties now default to false and emit mw.log.warn: is_gecko, is_chrome_mac, is_chrome, webkit_version, is_safari_win, is_safari, webkit_match, is_ff2, ff2_bugs, is_ff2_win, is_ff2_x11, opera95_bugs, opera7_bugs, opera6_bugs, is_opera_95, is_opera_preseven, is_opera, and ie6_bugs.
(bug 48276) MediaWiki will now flash a confirmation message upon successfully editing a page.
(bug 40785) mediawiki.legacy.ajax has been marked as deprecated. The following properties now emit mw.log.warn when accessed: sajax_debug, sajax_init_object, sajax_do_call and wfSupportsAjax.
Methods Title::userCanEditCssSubpage and Title::userCanEditJsSubpage, deprecated since 1.19, have been removed.
(bug 50134) Hook functions are no longer required to return a value. When a hook function does not return a value (or when it returns an explicit null), processing continues. To abort the hook, a hook function must return an explicit, boolean false or a string error message. Other falsey values are tantamount to a 'return true' in earlier versions of MediaWiki.
(bug 48256) The 'editsection-brackets' optional message was removed. Section edit links' brackets can now be customized using CSS by styling span.mw-editsection-bracket.
The usePatrol function in ChangesList has been marked as deprecated.
(bug 50785) A "null edit", that is, a save action in which no changes to the page text are made and no revision recorded, will no longer send refreshLinks jobs to the job table to update pages which use the edited page as a template.
The LivePreviewPrepare and LivePreviewDone events triggered on "jQuery( mw )" have been deprecated in favour of using mw.hook.
The 'showjumplinks' user preference has been removed, jump links are now always included.
Methods RecentChange::notifyRC2UDP, RecentChange::sendToUDP, and RecentChange::cleanupForIRC have been deprecated, as it is now the responsibility of classes implementing the RCFeedFormatter and RCFeedEngine interfaces to implement the formatting and delivery for recent change notifications.
SpecialPrefixindex methods namespacePrefixForm() and showPrefixChunk() have been made protected. They were accepting form variance arguments, this is now using properties in the SpecialPrefixindex class.
(bug 49629) The hook ExtractThumbParamaters has been deprecated in favour of media handler overriding MediaHandler::parseParamString.
(bug 46512) The collapsibleNav feature from the Vector extension has been moved to the Vector skin in core.
SpecialRecentChanges::addRecentChangesJS() function has been renamed to addModules() and made protected.
Methods WatchAction::doWatch and WatchAction::doUnwatch now return a Status object instead of a boolean.
Information boxes (CSS classes errorbox, warningbox, successbox) have been made more subtle.
Code specific to the Math extension was marked as deprecated.
mediawiki.util: mw.util.wikiGetlink has been renamed to getUrl. (The old name still works, but is deprecated.)

Configuration changes

$wgPasswordResetRoutes['email'] = true by default.
$wgEnableParserCache was deprecated, set $wgParserCacheType to CACHE_NONE instead if you want to disable the parser cache.
New-style continuation is now the default for API action=continue. Clients may use the 'rawcontinue' parameter to receive raw query-continue data, but the new style is encouraged as it's harder to implement incorrectly.
Deprecated API formats dump and wddx have been completely removed.
(T7645) The "Signature" button on the edit toolbar is now hidden by default in non-talk namespaces. A new configuration variable, $wgExtraSignatureNamespaces, controls in which subject (non-talk) namespaces the "Signature" button on the edit toolbar will be displayed.
$wgResourceLoaderUseESI was deprecated and removed. This was an experimental feature that was never enabled by default.
$wgResourceLoaderExperimentalAsyncLoading was deprecated and removed. This experimental feature was never enabled by default and is obsolete as of MediaWiki 1.26, in where ResourceLoader became fully asynchronous.
$wgMasterWaitTimeout was removed (deprecated in 1.24).
Fields in ParserOptions are now private. Use the accessors instead.
Custom LESS functions (defined via $wgResourceLoaderLESSFunctions) have been removed, after being deprecated in 1.24.
$wgAlwaysUseTidy has been removed.

New features

(T51506) Now action=info gives estimates of actual watchers for a page. See $wgRCMaxAge, $wgWatchersMaxAge and $wgUnwatchedPageSecret to learn how to configure if needed.
Change tags can now be hidden in the interface by disabling the associated "tag-<id>" interface message.
':' (colon) is now invalid in usernames for new accounts. Existing accounts are not affected.
Added a new hook, 'LogException', to log exceptions in nonstandard ways.
Revive the 'SpecialSearchResultsAppend' hook which occurs after the list of search results are rendered. The initial use case is to append a "give us feedback" link beneath the search results.
Added a new hook, 'RejectParserCacheValue', which allows extensions to reject an otherwise-successful parser cache lookup. The intent is to allow extensions to manage the eviction of archaic HTML output from the cache.
(T68699) The expiration of the UserID and Token login cookies ($wgExtendedLoginCookieExpiration) can be configured independently of the expiration of all other cookies ($wgCookieExpiration).
(T50519) Support for generating JPEG/PNG thumbnails from WebP images added if ImageMagick is used as image scaler ($wgUseImageMagick = true). Uploading of WebP images still disabled by default. Add $wgFileExtensions[] = 'webp'; to LocalSettings.php to enable uploading of WebP images.
Added new hooks 'EnhancedChangesListModifyLineData' & 'EnhancedChangesListModifyBlockLineData', to modify the data used to build lines in enhanced recentchanges and watchlist.
Caches that need purging ability now use the WANObjectCache interface. This corresponds to a new $wgMainWANCache setting, which defaults to using the $wgMainCacheType settings.
Callers needing fast light-weight data stores use $wgMainStash to select the store type from $wgObjectCaches. The default is the local database.
Interface message overrides in the MediaWiki namespace will now be cached in memcached and APC (if available), rather than memcached and local files.
Added a new hook, 'RandomPageQuery', to allow modification of the query used by Special:Random to select random pages.
$wgTransactionalTimeLimit was added, which controls the request time limit for potentially slow POST requests that need to be as atomic as possible.
ResourceLoader now loads all scripts asynchronously. The top-queue and startup modules are no longer synchronously loaded.
'mediawiki.ui.button' styles are no longer unconditionally loaded on every page. During the deprecation period, the styles will only be loaded on pages which contain 'mw-ui-button' in their HTML. Starting in 1.28, the styles will only be loaded if explicitly required.

External libraries

Update es5-shim from v4.0.0 to v4.1.5.
Update json2 from revision 2014-02-04 to 2015-05-03.
Update Sinon.JS from 1.10.3 to 1.15.4.
Upgrade jQuery Client from v1.0.0 to v2.0.0.
Added mediawiki/at-ease 1.0.0.
Update QUnit from v1.17.1 to v1.18.0.

Bug fixes

(T53283) load.php sometimes sends 304 response without full headers
(T65198) Talk page tabs now have a "rel=discussion" attribute
(T98841) {{msgnw:}} now preserves comments even when subst: is not used.
(T104142) $wgEmergencyContact and $wgPasswordSender now use their default value if set to an empty string.

Action API changes

New-style continuation is now the default for action=continue. Clients may use the 'rawcontinue' parameter to receive raw query-continue data, but the new style is encouraged as it's harder to implement incorrectly.
Deprecated API formats dump and wddx have been completely removed.
API action=query&list=tags: The displayname can now be boolean false if the tag is meant to be hidden from user interfaces.
action=import no longer allows both the namespace= and rootpage= parameters to be set. If they are both set, the value of rootpage= will be ignored.
prop=revision output in enum mode is now sorted by timestamp rather than revision ID. This usually won't make any difference.
(T102645) Namespace list from meta=siteinfo&siprop=namespaces is now an array with formatversion=2.
Various other output from meta=siteinfo will now always be arrays instead of sometimes being numerically-indexed objects with formatversion=2.
When errors about users being blocked are returned, they now include information about the relevant block.
(T99926) list=random has higher limits, in line with other API modules.
list=random's rnredirect parameter is deprecated in favor of a new rnfilterredir parameter that also allows for listing both redirects and non-redirects.
list=random now supports continuation.
API responses to GET requests may now include ETag and Last-Modified headers, and will honor corresponding If-None-Match and If-Modified-Since on such requests.

Action API internal changes

New metadata item ApiResult::META_KVP_MERGE to allow for merging the KVP key into the value when the value is an assoc.
API action modules may now provide values for the RFC 7232 ETag and Last-Modified headers. The API will check these against If-None-Match and If-Modified-Since request headers on GET requests and avoid executing the module when appropriate.

Languages updated

MediaWiki supports over 350 languages. Many localisations are updated regularly. Below only new and removed languages are listed, as well as changes to languages because of Phabricator reports.

Languages added:
ase (American sign language), thanks to translator Icemandeaf
dty (डोटेली/Doteli), thanks to translators जनक राज भट्ट, बिप्लब आनन्द, मेश सिंह बोहरा, and राम प्रसाद जोशी
luz (لئری دوٙمینی / Southern Luri)

Other changes

ChangeTags::tagDescription() will return false if the interface message for the tag is disabled.
Added PageHistoryPager::doBatchLookups hook.
Added $wikiId parameter to FormatAutocomments hook.
Added ParserCacheSaveComplete to ParserCache
supportsDirectEditing and supportsDirectApiEditing methods added to ContentHandler, to provide a way for ApiEditPage and EditPage to check if direct editing of content is allowed. These methods return false, by default for the ContentHandler base class and true for TextContentHandler and it's derivative classes (everything in core). For Content types that do not support direct editing, an alternative mechanism should be provided for editing, such as action overrides or specific api modules.
mediaWiki.confirmCloseWindow now returns an object of functions, instead of one function. The callback can't be called directly any more. The callback function is replaced with confirmCloseWindow.release().
BREAKING CHANGE: Added an optional ResouceLoaderContext parameter to ResourceLoaderModule::getDependencies(). Extension classes that override that method should be updated. If they aren't updated, PHP Strict standards warnings will appear when E_STRICT error reporting is enabled. Note: in the near future, this parameter will probably become non-optional.
Removed maintenance script deleteImageMemcached.php.
MWFunction::newObj() was removed (deprecated in 1.25). ObjectFactory::getObjectFromSpec() should be used instead.
The parser will no longer randomize the string it uses to mark the place of items that were stripped during parsing. It will use a fixed string instead. This causes the parser to re-use the regular expressions it uses to search and replace markers rather than generate novel expressions on each parse. Re-using regular expressions will improve performance on HHVM and the forthcoming PHP 7. The interfaces changes accompanying this change are:
- Parser::getRandomString() and Parser::uniqPrefix() have been deprecated.
- The $uniq_prefix argument for Parser::extractTagsAndParams() and the $prefix argument for StripState::_construct() are deprecated and their value is ignored.
wfSuppressWarnings() and wfRestoreWarnings() were split into a separate library, mediawiki/at-ease, and are now deprecated. Callers should use MediaWiki\suppressWarnings() and MediaWiki\restoreWarnings() directly.
The Block class constructor now takes an associative array of parameters instead of many optional positional arguments. Calling the constructor the old way will issue a deprecation warning.
The jquery.mwExtension module was deprecated.
$wgSpecialPageGroups was removed (deprecated in 1.21).
SpecialPageFactory::setGroup was removed (deprecated in 1.21).
SpecialPageFactory::getGroup was removed (deprecated in 1.21).
DatabaseBase::ignoreErrors() is now protected.
BREAKING CHANGE: mediawiki.legacy.ajax has been removed, following a lengthy deprecation period.
The ScopedPHPTimeout class was removed.
Removed maintenance script fixSlaveDesync.php.
Watchlist tokens, SpecialResetTokens, and User::getTokenFromOption() are deprecated. Applications using those can work via the OAuth extension instead. New tokens types should not be added.
DatabaseBase::errorCount() was removed (unused).

MediaWiki 1.27.0

Seit MediaWiki 1.21.0 ist automatisch Imagemap dabei (siehe erste Zeile in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ImageMap), ist aber anscheinend noch nicht freigeschaltet (ich versuchte es auf meiner Spielwiese).
Damit könnte man z.B. von der Übersicht KOSMOS-Experimentier-Programm auf die einzelnen Kästen verlinken.

Das müsste nun aktiv sein. Kannst du es bitte nochmals testen.

Eventuell ist es aufgefallen. Das ee-wiki stand heute für ca. 30 Minuten nicht zur Verfügung.
Es stand ein grösserer schon lange geplanter und immer vor mich her geschobener Task an.
Die WIKI Software habe ich nun ganz frisch installiert. Auch die DB ist frisch.
