* $wgPageShowWatchingUsers was removed.
* $wgLocalVirtualHosts has been added to replace $wgConf->localVHosts.
* $wgAntiLockFlags was removed.
+* Edit tokens returned from User::getEditToken may change on every call. Token
+ validity must be checked by passing the user-supplied token to
+ User::matchEditToken rather than by testing for equality with a
+ newly-generated token.
+* (bug 72951) The UserGetLanguageObject hook may be passed any IContextSource
+ for its $context parameter. Formerly it was documented as receiving a
+ RequestContext specifically.
+* Profiling was restructured and $wgProfiler now requires an 'output' parameter.
+ See StartProfiler.sample for details.
=== New features in 1.25 ===
+* (bug 62861) Updated plural rules to CLDR 26. Includes incompatible changes
+ for plural forms in Russian, Prussian, Tagalog, Manx and several languages
+ that fall back to Russian.
* (bug 58139) ResourceLoaderFileModule now supports language fallback
for 'languageScripts'.
* Added a new hook, "ContentAlterParserOutput", to allow extensions to modify the
parser output for a content object before links update.
+* (bug 35785) Enhanced recent changes and extended watchlist are now default.
+ Documentation: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Enhanced_recent_changes
+ and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgDefaultUserOptions.
* (bug 67341) SVG images will no longer be base64-encoded when being embedded
in CSS. This results in slight size increase before gzip compression (due to
percent-encoding), but up to 20% decrease after it.
+* Upgrade jStorage to v0.4.12.
+* MediaWiki now natively supports page status indicators: icons (or short text
+ snippets) usually displayed in the top-right corner of the page. They have
+ been in use on Wikipedia for a long time, implemented using templates and CSS
+ absolute positioning.
+ - Basic wikitext syntax: [[File:Foo.svg|20px]]
+ - Usage instructions: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Page_status_indicators
+ - Adjusting custom skins to support indicators:
+ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skinning#Page_status_indicators
+* Edit tokens may now be time-limited: passing a maximum age to
+ User::matchEditToken will reject any older tokens.
+* The debug logging internals have been overhauled, and are now using the
+ PSR-3 interfaces.
=== Bug fixes in 1.25 ===
* (bug 71003) No additional code will be generated to try to load CSS-embedded
SVG images in Internet Explorer 6 and 7, as they don't support them anyway.
* (bug 67021) On Special:BookSources, corrected validation of ISBNs (both
10- and 13-digit forms) containing "X".
+* Page moving was refactored into a MovePage class. As part of that:
+** The AbortMove hook was removed.
+** MovePageIsValidMove is for extensions to specify whether a page
+ cannot be moved for technical reasons, and should not be overriden.
+** MovePageCheckPermissions is for checking whether the given user is
+ allowed to make the move.
+** Title::moveNoAuth() was deprecated. Use the MovePage class instead.
+** Title::moveTo() was deprecated. Use the MovePage class instead.
+** Title::isValidMoveOperation() broken down into MovePage::isValidMove()
