 === Configuration changes in 1.27 ===
-* Removed $wgUseLinkNamespaceDBFields
+* $wgUseLinkNamespaceDBFields was removed.
 * Deprecated $wgResourceLoaderMinifierStatementsOnOwnLine and
   $wgResourceLoaderMinifierMaxLineLength, because there was little value in
   making the behavior configurable. The default values (`false` for the former,
   1000 for the latter) are now hard-coded.
 * $wgDebugDumpSqlLength was removed (deprecated in 1.24).
 * $wgDebugDBTransactions was removed (deprecated in 1.20).
-* $wgRemoteUploadTarget (added in 1.26) removed, replaced by $wgForeignUploadTargets
+* $wgUseXVO has been removed, as it provides functionality only used by
+  custom Wikimedia patches against Squid 2.x that probably noone uses in
+  production anymore. There is now $wgUseKeyHeader that provides similar
+  functionality but instead of the MediaWiki-specific X-Vary-Options header,
+  uses the draft Key header standard.
+* $wgScriptExtension (and support for '.php5' entry points) was removed. See the
+  deprecation notice in the release notes for version 1.25 for advice on how to
+  preserve support for '.php5' entry points via URL rewriting.
+* Password handling via the User object has been deprecated and partially
+  removed, pending the future introduction of AuthManager. In particular:
+** expirePassword(), getPasswordExpireDate(), resetPasswordExpiration(), and
+   getPasswordExpired() have been removed. They were unused outside of core.
+** The mPassword, mNewpassword, mNewpassTime, and mPasswordExpires fields are
+   now private and will be removed in the future.
+** The getPassword() and getTemporaryPassword() methods now throw
+   BadMethodCallException and will be removed in the future.
+** The ability to pass 'password' and 'newpassword' to createNew() has been
+   removed. The only users of it seem to have been using it to set invalid
+   passwords, and so shouldn't be greatly affected.
+** setPassword(), setInternalPassword(), and setNewpassword() have been
+   deprecated, pending the introduction of AuthManager.
+** User::randomPassword() is deprecated in favor of a new method
+   PasswordFactory::generateRandomPasswordString()
+** User::getPasswordFactory() is deprecated, callers should just create a
+   PasswordFactory themselves.
+** A new constructor, User::newSystemUser(), has been added to simplify the
+   creation of passwordless "system" users for logged actions.
+* $wgMaxSquidPurgeTitles was removed.
+* $wgAjaxWatch was removed. This is now enabled by default.

 * $wgCdnMaxageLagged was added, which limits the CDN cache TTL

 === Bug fixes in 1.27 ===
 
 === Action API changes in 1.27 ===
+* Added list=allrevisions.
+* generator=recentchanges now has the option to generate revids.
+* ApiPageSet::setRedirectMergePolicy() was added. This allows generator
+  modules to define how generator data for a redirect source gets merged
+  into the redirect destination.
+* prop=imageinfo&iiprop=uploadwarning will no longer include the possibility of
+  "was-deleted" warning.
+* Added difftotextpst to query=revisions which preforms a pre-save transform on
