+ the date of user's latest contribution.
=== Action API internal changes in 1.33 ===
* A number of deprecated methods for API documentation, intended for overriding
to "PĂ gina printzipale". Existing wikis using this content language need to
move the main page or change the name through MediaWiki:Mainpage page.
* wfSplitWikiID(), deprecated in 1.32, has been removed.
+* MessageBlobStore::getBlob(), deprecated in 1.27, has been removed.
+ Use ::getBlobs() instead.
+* The .background-size() LESS mixin, deprecated in 1.27, has been removed.
=== Deprecations in 1.33 ===
* The configuration option $wgUseESI has been deprecated, and is expected
deprecated and will be removed in the future.
* The FileBasedSiteLookup class has been deprecated. For a cacheable SiteLookup
implementation, use CachingSiteStore instead.
+* Language::viewPrevNext function is deprecated, use
+ SpecialPage::buildPrevNextNavigation instead
* ManualLogEntry::setTags() is deprecated, use ManualLogEntry::addTags()
instead. The setTags() method was overriding the tags, addTags() doesn't
override, only adds new tags.
* Block::isValid is deprecated, since it is no longer needed in core.
+* Calling Maintenance::hasArg() as well as Maintenance::getArg() with no
+ parameter has been deprecated. Please pass the argument number 0.
=== Other changes in 1.33 ===
* (T201747) Html::openElement() warns if given an element name with a space
to page updates: LinksUpdateConstructed, LinksUpdate, LinksUpdateComplete.
LinksUpdateAfterInsert is not triggered since deletions do not cause
insertions into links tables.
+* Category::newFromID( $id )->getID() will now return $id without any
+ validation, to avoid a mostly unnecessary DB query.
