+Change notes from older releases. For current info see RELEASE-NOTES-1.24.
+
+== MediaWiki 1.23 ==
+
+=== Configuration changes in 1.23 ===
+* (bug 13250) Restored method for clearing a watchlist in web UI
+ so that users with large watchlists don't have to perform
+ contortions to clear them.
+* When $wgJobRunRate is higher than zero, jobs are now executed via an
+ asynchronous HTTP request to a MediaWiki entry point. This may require
+ increasing the number of server worker threads. $wgRunJobsAsync has been
+ added to disable this feature if needed, falling back to executing the job
+ on the same process but making the execution synchronously.
+* $wgDebugLogGroups values may be set to an associative array with a
+ 'destination' key specifying the log destination. The array may also contain
+ a 'sample' key with a positive integer value N indicating that the log group
+ should be sampled by dispatching one in every N messages on average. The
+ sampling is random.
+* In addition to the current exception log format, MediaWiki now serializes
+ exception metadata to JSON and logs it to the 'exception-json' log group.
+ This makes MediaWiki easier to integrate with log aggregation and analysis
+ tools.
+* $wgSquidServersNoPurge now supports the use of Classless Inter-Domain
+ Routing (CIDR) notation to specify contiguous blocks of IPv4 and/or IPv6
+ addresses that should be trusted to provide X-Forwarded-For headers.
+* Preferences 'watchcreations', 'watchdefault', 'enotifwatchlistpages' ("Add
+ pages I create and files I upload to my watchlist", "Add pages and files I
+ edit to my watchlist", "Email me when a page or file on my watchlist is
+ changed") are now enabled by default. In addition new user accounts' personal
+ and talk pages are now watched by them by default.
+* $wgLBFactoryConf: Class names have had underscores removed. The configuration
+ should be updated if LBFactory_Simple or LBFactory_Multi is configured.
+* $wgPasswordSenderName has been removed and is no longer functional. To set a
+ custom mailer name, the system message 'emailsender' should be modified
+ (default: "{{SITENAME}}").
+* (bug 63269) Email notifications were not correctly handling the
+ [[MediaWiki:Helppage]] message being set to a full URL (the default).
+ If you customized [[MediaWiki:Enotif body]] (the text of email notifications),
+ you'll need to edit it locally to include the URL via the new variable
+ $HELPPAGE instead of the parser functions fullurl and canonicalurl; otherwise
+ you don't have to do anything.
+* $wgDBAhandler was removed as the only class using it was also removed
+* The 'max threads' setting was removed from $wgDBservers.
+* Support for AdminSettings.php has been completely removed. All configuration
+ belongs in LocalSettings.php.
+* $wgSkipSkin, which has been replaceable by $wgSkipSkins since 2005 (r9249), is
+ now formally deprecated.
+* Removed deprecated $wgDisabledActions as it is hardly used anywhere.
+* $wgRateLimitLog has been deprecated and replaced by
+ $wgDebugLogGroup['ratelimit'].
+* $wgLocalInterwikis is an array containing multiple local interwiki prefixes
+ (interwiki prefixes that point back to the current wiki). This effectively
+ allows more than one value of $wgLocalInterwiki to be specified and
+ understood by the parser. The value of $wgLocalInterwiki is automatically
+ prepended to the start of this array.
+* $wgQueryPages has been removed. Query Pages should be added to by using the
+ wgQueryPages hook.
+* $wgHttpOnlyBlacklist has been removed.
+* $wgLicenseTerms has been removed as it was unused.
+* $wgProfileOnly is now deprecated; set the log file in
+ $wgDebugLogGroups['profileoutput'] to replace it.
+* $wgMaxBacklinksInvalidate was removed; use $wgJobBackoffThrottling instead
+* Deprecated ResourceLoaderGetStartupModules hook.
+
+=== New features in 1.23 ===
+* ResourceLoader can utilize the Web Storage API to cache modules client-side.
+ Compared to the browser cache, caching in Web Storage allows ResourceLoader
+ to be more granular about evicting stale modules from the cache while
+ retaining the ability to retrieve multiple modules in a single HTTP request.
+ This capability can be enabled by setting $wgResourceLoaderStorageEnabled to
+ true. This feature is currently considered experimental and should only be
+ enabled with care.
+* (bug 6092) Add expensive parser functions {{REVISIONID:}}, {{REVISIONUSER:}}
+ and {{REVISIONTIMESTAMP:}} (with friends).
+* Add "wgRelevantUserName" to mw.config containing the current
+ Skin::getRelevantUser value.
+* (bug 56033) Add content model to the page information.
+* Added Article::MissingArticleConditions hook to give extensions a chance to
+ hide their (unrelated) log entries.
+* Added LonelyPagesQuery hook to let extensions modify the query used to
+ generate Special:LonelyPages.
+* Added $wgOpenSearchDefaultLimit defining the default number of entries to show
+ on action=opensearch API call.
+* For namespaces with $wgNamespaceProtection (including the MediaWiki
+ namespace), the "protect" tab will be shown only if there are restriction
+ levels available that would restrict editing beyond what
+ $wgNamespaceProtection already applies. The protection form will offer only
+ those protection levels.
+* Added $wgAPIFormatModules, allowing extensions to add additional output
+ formatting modules for the API.
+* (bug 47812) The MediaWiki:Group-user.{css,js} pages can now be used to add
+ custom CSS or JavaScript enabled only for registered users.
+* (bug 52005) Special pages RecentChanges, RecentChangesLinked and Watchlist
+ now include a legend describing the symbols used in lists of changes.
+* Improved the accessibility of the tabs in Special:Preferences.
+* Added ApiBeforeMain hook, roughly equivalent to the BeforeInitialize hook:
+ it's called after everything is set up but before any major processing
+ happens.
+* The jquery.client module now performs a component-wise version comparison in
+ its #test method when strings are used in the browser map: version '1.10' is
+ now correctly considered larger than '1.2'. Using numbers in the version map
+ is not affected.
+* All API modules now support an assert parameter, which can either be
+ 'user' or 'bot'. The API will throw an error if the user is not logged
+ in (user) or does not have the 'bot' userright (bot). Based off of the
+ AssertEdit extension by Steve Sanbeg.
+* [[Special:Diff]] was added, allowing users to create internal links to
+ revision comparison pages using syntax such as [[Special:Diff/12345]],
+ [[Special:Diff/12345/prev]] or [[Special:Diff/12345/98765]].
+* New user accounts' personal and talk pages are now watched by them by default.
+* Added SkinTemplateGetLanguageLink hook to allow changing the html of language
+ links.
+* Added MessageCache::get hook as a new way to customize messages across
+ multiple sites.
+* Added jquery.throttle-debounce ResourceLoader module to limit the number of
+ callbacks for frequently occurring events.
+* Special:ProtectedPages shows now a table. The timestamp, the reason and
+ the protecting user is also shown.
+* Added experimental support for using Microsoft SQL Server as the database
+ backend.
+** Added new Microsoft SQL Server-specific configuration variable
+ $wgDBWindowsAuthentication, which makes the web server authenticate against
+ the database server using Integrated Windows Authentication instead of
+ $wgDBuser/$wgDBpassword.
+* HTMLForm 'select', 'selectandother', 'selectorother', 'multiselect', and
+ 'radio' fields can now use message keys as labels via the 'options-messages'
+ parameter, which overrides the 'options' parameter.
+* Admins can expire users users passwords manually, or on a schedule using the
+ $wgPasswordExpirationDays configuration setting.
+* Add new hook SendWatchlistEmailNotification, this will be used to determine
+ whether to send a watchlist email notification.
+* (bug 42026) Special:Contributions now includes an option to filter page
+ creations, similar to the topOnly option.
+* Add mediawiki.ui.button styling to all pages so wiki content can use styled
+ buttons.
+* Special:UserLogin/signup now does AJAX checks for invalid and taken usernames,
+ displaying the error live.
+* Added BaseTemplateAfterPortlet hook to allow injecting html after portlets in skins.
+* Support has been added for a JSON based localisation file format. The
+ installer has been updated to use it.
+* Changes to content typography (colors, line-height etc.). See
+ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Typography_refresh for further information.
+* The Vector skin's visual treatment of external links has been simplified to a
+ single icon (from nine). This should not affect local rules unless they were
+ re-using these icons, which have now been deleted.
+* ResourceLoader: mw.loader.using() now implements a Promise interface.
+* Add new hook ChangesListInitRows accessed via ChangesList::initChangesListRows.
+ If called by the ChangesList consumer this gives extensions a chance to batch
+ process the result set prior to rendering.
+* A PoolCounterRedis class was added which can be make use of in $wgPoolCounterConf.
+ This requires at least one Redis 2.6+ server.
+* $wgProfileToDatabase was removed. Set $wgProfiler to ProfilerSimpleDB
+ in StartProfiler.php instead of using this.
+* (bug 63444) Made it possible to change the indent string (default: 4 spaces)
+ used by FormatJson::encode().
+
+=== Bug fixes in 1.23 ===
+* (bug 41759) The "updated since last visit" markers (on history pages, recent
+ changes and watchlist) and the talk page message indicator are now correctly
+ updated when the user is viewing old revisions of pages, instead of always
+ acting as if the latest revision was being viewed.
+* (bug 56443) Special:ConfirmEmail no longer shows a "Mail a confirmation code"
+ when the email address is already confirmed. Also, consistently use
+ "confirmed", rather than "authenticated", when messaging whether or not the
+ user has confirmed an email address.
+* (bug 19415) action=render no longer shows section edit links. This affects
+ behavior of several other features where (bogus) section edit links will
+ disappear, such as file description pages loaded via $wgUseInstantCommons or
+ pages transcluded cross-wiki via $wgEnableScaryTranscluding.
+* (bug 56912) Show correct link color on cached result of Special:DeadendPages.
+* Classes TitleListDependency and TitleDependency have been removed, as they
+ have been found unused in core and extensions for a long time.
+* (bug 57098) SpecialPasswordReset now obeys returnto parameter
+* (bug 37812) ResourceLoader will notice when a module's definition changes and
+ recompile it accordingly.
+* (bug 57201) SpecialRecentChangesFilters hook is now executed for feeds.
+* (bug 58640) Fixed a compatibility issue with PCRE 8.34 that caused pages
+ to appear blank or with missing text.
+* (bug 56931) Updated the plural rules to CLDR 24. They are in new format
+ which is detailed in UTS 35 Rev 33. The PHP parser and evaluator as well as
+ the JavaScript evaluator were updated to support the new format. Plural rules
+ for some languages have changed, most notably Russian. Affected software
+ messages have been updated and marked for review at translatewiki.net.
+* (bug 23542) imagelinks now stores both the redirect and target (as
+ templatelinks does).
+* (bug 58167) The web installer no longer throws an exception when PHP is
+ compiled without support for MySQL yet with support for another DBMS.
+* (bug 56199) Raw option of parser functions must now match complete word,
+ to take effect.
+* (bug 60543) Special:PrefixIndex forgot stripprefix=1 for "Next page" link
+* (bug 29762) Undoing an already-undone edit will now display an appropriate
+ message instead of leading the user to make a null edit.
+* (bug 52659) mediawiki.notification: Notification area remained visible when
+ empty and thus was stealing pointer events from links on the page.
+* (bug 26811) When a DBUnexpectedError occurs, DB server hostnames are now
+ hidden unless $wgShowExceptionDetails is true, and $wgShowDBErrorBacktrace
+ no longer applies in such cases.
+* (bug 60960) Avoid doing file_exist() checks on data: URIs, as they cause
+ warnings to be printed on Windows due to large path length.
+* (bug 48084) Fixed a bug in the installer that could cause $wgLogo to hold
+ the wrong path to the placeholder logo (skins/common/images/wiki.png).
+* (bug 64289) jquery.textSelection: Don't throw errors on empty collections.
+
+=== Web API changes in 1.23 ===
+* (bug 54884) action=parse&prop=categories now indicates hidden and missing
+ categories.
+* action=query&meta=filerepoinfo now returns additional information for each
+ repo.
+* action=parse&prop=languageshtml was deprecated in 1.18 and will be removed in
+ MediaWiki 1.24.
+* action=parse now has disabletoc flag to disable table of contents in output.
+* (bug 25702) list=allcategories, list=allimages, list=alllinks, list=allpages,
+ list=deletedrevs and list=filearchive did not handle case-sensitivity
+ properly for all parameters.
+* ApiQueryBase::titlePartToKey allows an extra parameter that indicates the
+ namespace in order to properly capitalize the title part.
+* (bug 57874) action=feedcontributions no longer has one item more than limit.
+* All API modules now support an assert parameter. See the new features section
+ for more details.
+* Added prop=contributors to fetch the list of contributors to the page.
+* The following API modules will now return entries where fields have been
+ revision-deleted: list=deletedrevs, list=filearchive, list=recentchanges,
+ list=watchlist. "hidden" indicators will be included, in the same style as is
+ already done for prop=revisions.
+* The following API modules will now return the content of revision-deleted
+ fields, in addition to the "hidden" indicators, if the querying user has the
+ necessary rights: list=logevents, list=usercontribs, prop=imageinfo,
+ prop=revisions.
+* The above modules, where applicable, will now return entries filtered by
+ revision-deleted fields if the querying user has the necessary rights. For
+ example, prop=revisions with rvuser or rvexcludeuser will no longer skip
+ revisions where the user was revision-deleted if the current user has the
+ deletedhistory right.
+* The 'hideuser' right, used when blocking, is no longer necessary or
+ sufficient for seeing contributions with revision-deleted in
+ list=usercontribs.
+* list=watchlist now uses the querying user's rights rather than the wlowner's
+ rights when checking whether wlprop=patrol is allowed.
+* (bug 32151) ApiWatch now has pageset capabilities (titles/pageids/generators).
+ Title parameter is now deprecated.
+* (bug 23005) Added action=revisiondelete.
+* Added siprop=restrictions to API action=query&meta=siteinfo for querying
+ possible page restriction (protection) levels and types.
+* Added prop 'limitreportdata' and 'limitreporthtml' to action=parse.
+* (bug 58627) Provide language names on action=parse&prop=langlinks.
+* Deprecated llurl= in favour of llprop=url for action=query&prop=langlinks.
+* Added llprop=langname and llprop=autonym for action=query&prop=langlinks.
+* prop=redirects is added, to return redirects to the pages in the query.
+* list=allredirects is added, to list all redirects pointing to a namespace.
+* (bug 42026) Added ucshow={new,!new,top,!top} to list=usercontribs.
+ Also added newonly to action=feedcontributions.
+* (bug 42026) Deprecated uctoponly in favor of ucshow=top.
+* list=search no longer has a "srredirects" parameter. Redirects are now
+ included in all searches.
+* Added list=prefixsearch that works like action=opensearch but can be used as
+ a generator.
+* (bug 24782) Various modules will now use unique continuation parameters.
+* (bug 63249) Cache RecentChanges Atom feed in varnish for 15 seconds.
+
+=== Languages updated in 1.23 ===
+
+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.
+
+* Support was added for Algerian Spoken Arabic (arq).
+* Support was added for Riograndenser Hunsrückisch (hrx).
+* Support was added for Northern Luri (lrc).
+
+=== Other changes in 1.23 ===
+* The rc_type field in the recentchanges table has been superseded by a new
+ rc_source field. The rc_source field is a string representation of the
+ change type where rc_type was a numeric constant. This field is not yet
+ queried but will be in a future release.
+** Utilize update.php to create and populate this new field. On larger wikis
+ which do not wish to update recentchanges table in one large update please
+ review the SQL and comments in maintenance/archives/patch-rc_source.sql.
+** The rc_type field of recentchanges will be deprecated in a future release.
+* The global variable $wgArticle has been removed after a lengthy deprecation.
+* The global functions addButton and insertTags (for mw.toolbar.addButton and
+ mw.toolbar.insertTags) now emits mw.log.warn when accessed.
+* The ExpandTemplates extension has been moved into MediaWiki core.
+* (bug 52812) Removed "Disable search suggestions" from Preference.
+* (bug 52809) Removed "Disable browser page caching" from Preference.
+* Three new modules intended for use by custom skins were added:
+ 'mediawiki.skinning.elements', 'mediawiki.skinning.content', and
+ 'mediawiki.skinning.interface', representing three levels of standard
+ MediaWiki styling. Previously skin creators wishing to use them had to refer
+ to the file names of appropriate files directly, which is now discouraged.
+* The modules 'skins.vector' and 'skins.monobook' have been renamed to
+ 'skins.vector.styles' and 'skins.monobook.styles', respectively,
+ and their definition was changed not to include the common*.css files;
+ the two skins now load the 'mediawiki.skinning.interface' module instead.
+* A page_links_updated field has been added to the page table.
+* SpecialPage::getTitle has been deprecated in favor of
+ SpecialPage::getPageTitle.
+* BREAKING CHANGE: Two potentially backwards-incompatible changes have been made
+ to the 'SpecialWatchlistQuery' hook's last parameter (array $values) to make
+ the hook more consistent with the 'SpecialRecentChangesQuery' one:
+** Several array keys have been renamed: hideMinor → hideminor,
+ hideBots → hidebots, hideAnons → hideanons, hideLiu → hideliu,
+ hidePatrolled → hidepatrolled, hideOwn → hidemyself.
+** The parameter value is now a FormOptions object, not a plain array (array
+ access operators should continue to work, as it implements the ArrayAccess
+ interface).
+* Option to mark hooks as deprecated has been added.
+* (bug 52811) Preference "Enable section editing via [edit] links" was removed.
+* (bug 52813) Preference "Show table of contents (for pages with more than
+ 3 headings)" was removed.
+* (bug 52810) Preference "Justify paragraphs" was removed.
+* OutputPage::showErrorPage raises a notice if arguments are incoherent.
+* Thumbnails that keep failing to render in thumb.php will be rate-limited
+ againt further render attempts for 1 hour. $wgAttemptFailureEpoch can be
+ altered to reset all rate-limited thumbnails at once.
+* (bug 56572) Builds of the OOjs and OOjs UI libraries are now available.
+* mw.loader.go and mw.loader.version have been removed.
+* (bug 52815) Preference "Enable simplified search bar (Vector skin only)"
+ was removed.
+* A user_password_expires column has been added to the user table. The User
+ object expects this column to exist. Use update.php to create this new field.
+* The jquery.delayedBind ResourceLoader module was deprecated in favor of the
+ jquery.throttle-debounce module. It will be removed in MediaWiki 1.24.
+* mw.user.bucket has been deprecated.
+* On Special:PrefixIndex, a table#mw-prefixindex-list-table was changed to
+ table.mw-prefixindex-list-table to avoid duplicate ids when the special page
+ is transcluded.
+* (bug 62198) window.$j has been deprecated.
+* Preference "Disable link title conversion" was removed.
+* SpecialRecentChanges no longer includes any functionality for generating feeds
+ - it has been factored out to ApiFeedRecentChanges. Old URLs redirect to new
+ ones.
+* RecentChange::mExtra['lang'] is no longer set and should no longer be used.
+ Extensions should read from other configuration variables, including
+ $wgLocalInterwikis, to identify the current wiki.
+* Sections in the parser test framework have been renamed and the old
+ section names are deprecated. Please use "!!wikitext" and "!!html"
+ (or "!!html/php") instead of "!!input" and "!!result". This allows
+ us to extend parser tests to accommodate additional input/output
+ pairs, such as "!!html/parsoid" (for the output of the Parsoid
+ parser, where it differs from the PHP parser).
+* Special:Search no longer has an "include redirects" option on the advanced
+ tab. Redirects are now included in all searches.
+* mediawiki.api.category's getCategories() 'async' parameter was deprecated.
+* The locations of resources have been split between upstream libraries, now in
+ resources/lib/, local libaries in resources/src/, and local forks of upstream
+ libraries, also in resources/src/.
+* BREAKING CHANGE: The automatically-generated function closure with which
+ ResourceLoader wraps all modules' JavaScript code now binds the identifier
+ names 'jQuery' and '$' to the jQuery object of the version of jQuery that is
+ bundled with MediaWiki. If you bind these names to other objects in global
+ scope (like Zepto.js or document.querySelectorAll, for example) you will need
+ to use different names to or re-bind them at the top of each
+ ResourceLoader-loaded module.
+* (bug 52342) Preference "Remember my login" was removed.
+* The skin autodiscovery mechanism has been deprecated and will be removed in
+ MediaWiki 1.25. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skin_autodiscovery
+ for migration guide for creators and users of custom skins that relied on it.
