+
+== MediaWiki 1.24 ==
+
+=== Configuration changes in 1.24 ===
+* MediaWiki will no longer run if register_globals is enabled. It has been
+ deprecated for 5 years now, and was removed in PHP 5.4. For more information
+ about why, see <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/register_globals>.
+* MediaWiki now requires PHP's iconv extension. openSUSE users may need to
+ install the php5-iconv package. Users of other systems may need to add
+ extension=iconv.so to php.ini or recompile PHP without --without-iconv.
+* MediaWiki will no longer function if magic quotes are enabled. It has
+ been deprecated for 5 years now, and was removed in PHP 5.4.
+* The server's canonical hostname is available as $wgServerName, which is
+ exposed in both mw.config and ApiQuerySiteInfo.
+* Introduced $wgPagePropsHaveSortkey as a backwards-compatibility switch,
+ for using the old schema of the page_props table, in case the respective
+ schema update was not applied.
+* $wgSearchEverythingOnlyLoggedIn was removed as the 'searcheverything'
+ user option was removed. Use $wgNamespacesToBeSearchedDefault instead or
+ if you used to have $wgDefaultUserOptions['searcheverything'] = 1.
+* $wgMasterWaitTimeout has been deprecated.
+* $wgDBClusterTimeout has been removed.
+* $wgProxyKey has been removed. It is no longer used by MediaWiki core.
+ Ensure $wgSecretKey is set in LocalSettings.php.
+* $wgExtraInterlanguageLinkPrefixes is a new configuration variable that
+ contains an array of interwiki prefixes that should be treated as language
+ prefixes (i.e. turned into interlanguage links when $wgInterwikiMagic is set
+ to true).
+* $wgParserTestRemote has been removed.
+* $wgCountTotalSearchHits has been removed. If you're concerned about efficiency
+ of search, you should use something like CirrusSearch instead of built in
+ search.
+* Users in the 'sysop' group have access to Special:MergeHistory by default.
+* $wgFileStore was removed after having been deprecated in 1.17. Alternative
+ configurations are $wgDeletedDirectory and $wgHashedUploadDirectory.
+* The deprecated $wgUseCommaCount variable has been removed.
+* $wgEnableSorbs and $wgSorbsUrl have been removed.
+* The UserCryptPassword and UserComparePassword hooks are no longer called.
+ Any extensions using them must be updated to use the Password Hashing API.
+* $wgCompiledFiles has been removed.
+* $wgSortSpecialPages was removed, the listing on Special:SpecialPages is
+ now always sorted.
+* $wgSpecialPages may now use callback functions as an alternative to plain class names.
+ This allows more control over constructor parameters.
+* $wgHTCPMulticastAddress, $wgHTCPMulticastRouting and $wgHTCPPort were removed.
+* $wgRC2UDPAddress, $wgRC2UDPInterwikiPrefix, $wgRC2UDPOmitBots, $wgRC2UDPPort
+ and $wgRC2UDPPrefix have been removed.
+* The default password type for MediaWiki has been changed from MD5 to PBKDF2.
+ Password hashes will automatically be updated as users log in. If necessary, the
+ old MD5 hashing can be restored by changing $wgPasswordDefault to 'B'. In addition,
+ there is a maintenance script wrapOldPassword.php that can wrap all passwords in
+ PBKDF2 (or the hashing algorithm of your choice) if you don't want to wait for your
+ users to log in.
+* $wgImportSources can now either be a regular array, or an associative map
+ specifying subprojects on the interwiki map of the target wiki, or a mix of
+ the two. Existing configurations will still work.
+* Users must be able to edit through a page's protection to be able to delete it.
+* The default thumb size ($wgDefaultUserOptions['thumbsize']) is now 300px, up from
+ 180px. If you have altered the number of entries in $wgThumbLimits for your wiki, you
+ may need to adjust your default user settings to compensate for the index change.
+* $wgDeferredUpdateList is now deprecated, you should use DeferredUpdates::addUpdate()
+ instead.
+* $wgCanonicalLanguageLinks has been removed. Per Google recommendations, we
+ will not send a rel=canonical pointing to a variant-neutral page, however
+ we will send rel=alternate.
+* $wgResourceLoaderLESSFunctions has been deprecated and will be removed in the future.
+* $wgGoToEdit has been removed. Use the SpecialSearchNogomatch hook for similar
+ functionality.
+
+=== New features in 1.24 ===
+* Added new hook WatchlistEditorBeforeFormRender, allowing subscribers to
+ manipulate the list of pages and/or preload lots of data at once.
+* Added new argument &$link in hook WatchlistEditorBuildRemoveLine, allowing the
+ link to the title to be changed.
+* Added a new hook, "WhatLinksHereProps", to allow extensions to annotate
+ WhatLinksHere entries.
+* Added a new hook, "ContentGetParserOutput", to customize parser output for
+ a given content object.
+* Deprecated the hook "ShowRawCssJs", use "ContentGetParserOutput" instead.
+* HTMLForm's HTMLTextField now supports the 'url' type.
+* HTMLForm fields may now be dynamically hidden based on the values of other
+ fields in the form.
+* HTMLForm now supports multiple copies of an input field or set of input
+ fields, e.g. the form may request "one or more usernames" without having to
+ have the user enter delimited list of names into a text field.
+* Added a new hook, "SidebarBeforeOutput", to allow to edit the structure of
+ the sidebar just before its display.
+* (bug 49156) Added the mediawiki.cookie ResourceLoader module, which wraps
+ jquery.cookie so that getting/setting a cookie is syntactically and
+ functionally similar to using the WebRequest::getCookie() and
+ WebResponse::setcookie() methods.
+* (bug 44740) jQuery upgraded from 1.8.3 to 1.11.1. A new configuration option,
+ $wgIncludejQueryMigrate, also loads the jQuery Migrate hack to let extensions
+ and gadgets use the long-deprecated functions that were removed in jQuery 1.9.
+ This option is turned off by default, and will be removed in MediaWiki 1.25.
+* (bug 47076) jQuery UI upgraded from 1.8.24 to 1.9.2.
+* Changes to content typography (fonts, etc.). See
+ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Typography_refresh for further information.
+* WikitextContent will now render redirects with the expected "redirect"
+ header, rather than as an ordered list. Code calling Article::viewRedirect
+ can probably be changed to no longer special-case redirects.
+* Header font set to a serif font stack. See
+ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Typography_refresh for further information.
+* (bug 65567) Added a new hook, "BeforeHttpsRedirect", to allow cancellation of
+ the HTTP to HTTPS redirect due to forceHTTPS cookie, userRequires, etc. This
+ is only for page views, since this hook doesn't affect UserLogin, OAuth,
+ CentralAuth, etc. ATTENTION: This hook is likely to be removed soon due to
+ overall design of the system.
+* (bug 17367) It is now possible to add pages to your watchlist from
+ Special:UnwatchedPages without reloading the special page.
+* New methods setVolatile and isVolatile are added to PPFrame, so that
+ extensions such as Cite.php can mark that their output is volatile and
+ shouldn't be cached.
+* (bug 52817) Advanced search options are now saved on the search page itself,
+ rather than in a dedicated pane in the preferences panel.
+* (bug 44591) The dropdown actions menu (little triangle next to page tabs) in
+ the Vector skin has gained a label that should make it more discoverable.
+* MWCryptHKDF added for fast, cryptographically secure random number generation
+ that won't deplete openssl's entropy pool.
+* ResourceLoader: File modules can now provide a skip function that uses an
+ inline feature test to bypass loading of the module.
+* (bug 20210) Special pages may now provide autocompletion of their subpage
+ names in search suggestions. Right now the only useful implementation is in
+ Special:Log, but more are to come.
+* Special:MostLinkedTemplates is no longer limited to transclusions from the
+ Template namespace.
+* Skins can now use 'remoteSkinPath' when defining ResourceLoader modules.
+ This works the same as 'remoteExtPath' but is relative to the skins/ folder
+ instead of the extensions/ folder.
+* Added the json2.js polyfill for the ES5 JSON.stringify and JSON.parse methods.
+ Exposed as module "json" with a skip function to optimise loading.
+* Extensions and skins may now use 'namemsg' in $wgExtensionCredits in addition
+ to 'name', to allow for the name to be localizable. 'name' should still be
+ specified for backwards-compatibility and to define the path Special:Version
+ uses to find extension license information.
+* Browser tests are now included to verify basic wiki functionality in developer
+ environments. For details on running tests, see tests/browser/README.mediawiki.
+* Upgrade jStorage to v0.4.10.
+* {{!}} is now a magic word that produces the | character. This removes the need
+ for Template:! for purposes such as passing pipes inside of parameters.
+* (bug 20790) The block log snippet on Special:Contributions and while
+ editing user and user talk pages now works for IP range blocks.
+* (bug 9360) Added ability to change the page language for MediaWiki pages using
+ Special:PageLanguage. All pages are set to wiki language by default.
+ The feature needs to be enabled with $wgPageLanguageUseDB=true and
+ permission needs to be set for 'pagelang'.
+* Upgrade Moment.js to v2.8.3.
+* (bug 67042) Added support for the HTML5 <rtc> tag for East Asian typography.
+* Upgrade Sinon.JS to 1.10.3.
+* Added the es5-shim polyfill for older or non-compliant javascript engines.
+* Upgrade jQuery Cookie to v1.3.1.
+* (bug 20476) Add a "viewsuppressed" user right to be able to view
+ suppressed content but not suppress it ("suppressrevision" right).
+* (bug 66440) The MediaWiki web installer will now allow you to choose the skins
+ to enable (from the ones included in download tarball) and decide which one
+ should be the default.
+* (bug 68085, 68802) Links like [[localInterwikiPrefix:languageCode:pageTitle]],
+ where localInterwikiPrefix is a member of the $wgLocalInterwikis array, will
+ no longer be displayed in the sidebar when $wgInterwikiMagic is true. In a
+ similar way, links like [[localInterwikiPrefix:File:Image.png]] and
+ [[localInterwikiPrefix:Category:Hello]] will now render as regular links, and
+ will not include the file or add the page to the category.
+* New special page, MyLanguage, to redirect users to subpages with localised
+ versions of a page. (Integrated from Extension:Translate)
+* MediaWiki now supports multiple password types, including bcrypt and PBKDF2.
+ The default type can be changed with $wgPasswordDefault and the type
+ configurations can be changed with $wgPasswordConfig.
+* Skins can now define custom styles for default ResourceLoader modules using
+ the $wgResourceModuleSkinStyles global. See the Vector skin for examples.
+* (bug 4488) There is now a preference to watch pages where the user has
+ rollbacked an edit by default.
+* (bug 15484) Users will now be redirected to the login page when they need to
+ log in, rather than being shown a page asking them to log in and having to click
+ another link to actually get to the login page.
+* A JsonContent and JsonContentHandler were added for extensions to extend.
+* (bug 35045) Redirects to sections will now update the URL in browser's address
+ bar using the HTML5 History API. When [[Dog]] redirects to [[Animals#Dog]],
+ the user will now see "Animals#Dog" in their browser instead of "Dog#Dog".
+* API token handling has been rewritten. Any API module using tokens will need
+ to be updated. See the entry below under "Action API internal changes".
+* Added HTMLAutoCompleteSelectField.
+* Added a new hook, "SkinPreloadExistence", to allow extensions to add titles to
+ link existence cache before the page is rendered.
+* Config::set() was moved to its own interface, MutableConfig. GlobalVarConfig::set()
+ is now deprecated, does not implement MutableConfig.
+* A MutableConfig named HashConfig was added, that stores an array of configuration
+ settings.
+* (bug 69418) A MultiConfig implementation was added that supports fallback
+ to multiple Config instances.
+* Update CSSJanus to v1.1.0.
+* Added FormatJson::parse() returning status with result or localized error message
+
+=== Bug fixes in 1.24 ===
+* (bug 50572) MediaWiki:Blockip should support gender
+* (bug 49116) Footer copyright notice is now always displayed in user language
+ rather than content language (same as copyright notice for editing interface).
+* (bug 62258) A bug was fixed in File::getUnscaledThumb when a height
+ restriction was present in the parameters. Images with both the "frame"
+ option and a size specification set will now always ignore the provided
+ size and display an unscaled image, as the documentation has always
+ claimed it would.
+* (bug 39035) Improved Vector skin performance by removing collapsibleNav,
+ which used to collapse some sidebar elements by default.
+ This removes -list id suffixes like p-lang-list: instead of using things like
+ #p-lang-list, you can do #p-lang .body ul.
+* (bug 890) Links in Special:RecentChanges and Special:Watchlist no longer
+ follow redirects to their target pages.
+* Parser now dies early if called recursively, instead of producing subtle bugs.
+* (bug 14323) Redirect pages, when viewed with redirect=no, no longer hide the
+ remaining page content.
+* (bug 52587) Maintenance script deleteBatch.php no longer follows redirects
+ in the file namespace and delete the file on the target page. It will still
+ however delete the redirect page.
+* (bug 22683) {{msgnw:}} and other uses of PPFrame::RECOVER_ORIG will correctly
+ recover the original code of extension tags.
+* (bug 65757) MSSQL: Update script drops unnamed constraints to be prepared
+ for future updates. Because it's doing so heuristically, it may fail or drop
+ wrong constraints.
+* (bug 67870) wfShellExec() cuts off stdout at multiples of 8192 bytes.
+* $wgRunJobsAsync now works with private wikis (e.g. read requires login).
+* (bugs 57238, 65206) Blank pages can now be directly created.
+* (bug 69789) Title::getContentModel() now loads from the database when
+ necessary instead of incorrectly returning the default content model.
+* (bug 69249) wfBaseConvert() now works around PHP Bug #50175 when using GMP.
+* (bug 57909) URLs in the externallinks table will no longer have certain
+ characters decoded in the query string.
+* (bug 67368) LESS mixins like .background-image() correctly flip image
+ references for RTL stylesheets now.
+
+=== Action API changes in 1.24 ===
+* action=parse API now supports prop=modules, which provides the list of
+ ResourceLoader modules that should be used to enhance the parsed content.
+* action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=interwikimap returns a new "protorel"
+ field which is true if protocol-relative urls can be used to access
+ a particular interwiki map entry.
+* list=logevents now provides logpage, which is the page ID from the
+ logging table, if ids are requested and the user has the permissions.
+* action=edit now requires that appendtext, prependtext, or section=new be used
+ when using the 'redirect' parameter, to prevent clients accidentally
+ overwriting the target page with the content of the redirect.
+* list=logevents will now return an error if both letitle and leprefix are
+ specified.
+* list=logevents has a new parameter, lenamespace, to allow filtering by
+ namespace.
+* action=expandtemplates has a new parameter, prop, and a new output format.
+ The old format is still used if prop isn't provided, but this is deprecated.
+* meta=userinfo can now return the count of unread pages on the watchlist.
+* list=watchlist can now filter by unread status.
+* The deprecated action=parse&prop=languageshtml has been removed.
+* (bug 48071) action=setnotificationtimestamp no longer throws PHP or database
+ errors when no pages are given.
+* (bug 60734) Actions that use ApiPageSet (e.g. purge, watch,
+ setnotificationtimestamp) will now include continuation information when
+ using a generator.
+* Removed 'props' and 'errors' from action=paraminfo, as they have extremely
+ limited use and are generally inaccurate, unmaintained, and impossible to
+ properly maintain.
+* Formats dbg, dump, txt, wddx, and yaml are now deprecated.
+* action=paraminfo now indicates when a parameter is specifying a submodule.
+* The iwurl parameter to prop=iwlinks is deprecated in favor of iwprop=url, for
+ parallelism with prop=langlinks.
+* All tokens should be fetched from action=query&meta=tokens; all other methods
+ of fetching tokens are deprecated. The value needed for meta=tokens's 'type'
+ parameter for each module is documented in the action=help output and is
+ returned from action=paraminfo.
+* New action ClearHasMsg that can be used to clear HasMsg flag.
+* The cmstartsortkey and cmendsortkey parameters to list=categorymembers are
+ deprecated in favor of cmstarthexsortkey and cmendhexsortkey.
+* (bug 63326) Add blockedtimestamp field to output of blockinfo property for
+ the list=allusers and list=users modules.
+* prop=imageinfo no longer requires iiurlwidth to be set when using iiurlparam.
+* Added prop=linkshere, prop=fileusage, and prop=transcludedin, which are
+ roughly equivalent to list=backlinks, list=imageusage, and list=embeddedin
+ but can work on a list of titles (including titles from a generator).
+* prop=redirects can now filter returned redirects by namespace.
+
+=== Action API internal changes in 1.24 ===
+* Methods for handling continuation are added to ApiResult, so actions other
+ than query that use generators can easily support continuation.
+* $wgAPIModules (and the related $wgAPIFormatModules, $wgAPIMetaModules,
+ $wgAPIPropModules, and $wgAPIListModules settings) now allow API modules
+ to be specified using a "module spec" array instead of a plain class name.
+ A "module spec" is an associative array containing at least the 'class' key
+ for the module's class, and optionally a 'factory' key for the factory function
+ to use for the module. This is intended for extensions that want control over
+ the instantiation of their API modules, to allow for proper dependency
+ injection.
+* A new param type 'submodule' is available. Parameters of this type will take
+ the list of valid values from the module's ApiModuleManager for the group
+ corresponding to the parameter name.
+* The 'APIGetPossibleErrors' and 'APIGetResultProperties' hooks are no longer used.
+* API token handling has been rewritten. Any API module using tokens will need
+ to be updated:
+ * ApiBase::needsToken now returns a token type instead of boolean true when a
+ token is needed. Returning true will throw an exception. See documentation
+ of that method for details.
+ * Information for the 'token' parameter is automatically set by ApiBase
+ getFinalParams and getFinalParamDescription.
+ * ApiBase::getTokenSalt has been removed.
+ * The hooks APIQueryInfoTokens, APIQueryRevisionsTokens,
+ APIQueryRecentChangesTokens, APIQueryUsersTokens, and
+ ApiTokensGetTokenTypes are deprecated, but are still called to support
+ backwards-compatible token access.
+* ApiBase::validateLimit and ApiBase::validateTimestamp are now protected.
+* ApiQueryRedirects was removed; prop=redirects is now implemented by
+ ApiQueryBacklinksProp along with the newly-added prop modules.
+* The following methods have been deprecated and may be removed in a future
+ release:
+ * ApiBase::getResultProperties
+ * ApiBase::getFinalResultProperties
+ * ApiBase::addTokenProperties
+ * ApiBase::getRequireOnlyOneParameterErrorMessages
+ * ApiBase::getRequireMaxOneParameterErrorMessages
+ * ApiBase::getRequireAtLeastOneParameterErrorMessages
+ * ApiBase::getTitleOrPageIdErrorMessage
+ * ApiBase::getPossibleErrors
+ * ApiBase::getFinalPossibleErrors
+ * ApiBase::parseErrors
+ * ApiQuery::setGeneratorContinue
+ * ApiQueryBase::checkRowCount
+ * ApiQueryBase::titleToKey
+ * ApiQueryBase::keyToTitle
+ * ApiQueryBase::keyPartToTitle
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getTokenFunctions
+ * ApiQueryInfo::resetTokenCache
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getEditToken
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getDeleteToken
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getProtectToken
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getMoveToken
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getBlockToken
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getUnblockToken
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getEmailToken
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getImportToken
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getWatchToken
+ * ApiQueryInfo::getOptionsToken
+ * ApiQueryRecentChanges::getTokenFunctions
+ * ApiQueryRecentChanges::getPatrolToken
+ * ApiQueryRevisions::getTokenFunctions
+ * ApiQueryRevisions::getRollbackToken
+ * ApiQueryUsers::getTokenFunctions
+ * ApiQueryUsers::getUserrightsToken
+* The following classes have been deprecated and may be removed in a future
+ release:
+ * ApiFormatDbg
+ * ApiFormatDump
+ * ApiFormatTxt
+ * ApiFormatWddx
+ * ApiFormatYaml
+ * ApiTokens
+* The following class constants have been deprecated and may be removed in a
+ future release:
+ * ApiBase::PROP_ROOT
+ * ApiBase::PROP_LIST
+ * ApiBase::PROP_TYPE
+ * ApiBase::PROP_NULLABLE
+
+=== Languages updated in 1.24 ===
+
+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.
+
+=== Other changes in 1.24 ===
+* The deprecated jquery.delayedBind ResourceLoader module was removed.
+* The deprecated function mw.util.toggleToc was removed.
+* The Special:Search hooks SpecialSearchGo and SpecialSearchResultsAppend
+ were removed as they were unused.
+* (bug 65477) User::pingLimiter() now has an additional profile point varying
+ by action being used.
+* mediawiki.util.$content no longer supports old versions of the Vector,
+ Monobook, Modern and CologneBlue skins that don't yet implement the "mw-body"
+ and/or "mw-body-primary" class name in their html.
+* Added pp_sortkey column to page_props table, so pages can be efficiently
+ queried and sorted by property value (bug 58032).
+ See $wgPagePropsHaveSortkey if you want to postpone the schema change.
+* BREAKING CHANGE: All four built-in MediaWiki skins (Vector, MonoBook, Modern
+ and Cologne Blue) were moved out of MediaWiki core to their own respective
+ repositories. They will be installed with the release tarball, but you must
+ install them separately if installing MediaWiki from source code. A warning
+ message displayed until you do it should guide you through the process. See
+ also <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skin_configuration>.
+* BREAKING CHANGE: Skins built for MediaWiki 1.15 and earlier that do not use
+ the "headelement" template key are no longer supported. Setting
+ $useHeadElement = false; is no longer supported and will not cause old keys
+ like "headlinks", "skinnameclass", etc. to be defined.
+* BREAKING CHANGE: The files commonElements.css, commonContent.css and
+ commonInterface.css (in skins/common/) have been removed. Skins may no longer
+ rely on their presence and include them in their style modules. ResourceLoader
+ modules introduced in MediaWiki 1.23 should be loaded instead:
+ - skins/common/commonElements.css → 'mediawiki.skinning.elements' module
+ - skins/common/commonContent.css → 'mediawiki.skinning.content' module
+ - skins/common/commonInterface.css → 'mediawiki.skinning.interface' module
+* The deprecated 'SpecialVersionExtensionTypes' hook was removed.
+* (bug 63891) Add 'X-Robots-Tag: noindex' header in action=render pages.
+* SpecialPage no longer supports the syntax for invoking wfSpecial*() functions.
+ Special pages should subclass SpecialPage and implement the execute() method.
+* (bug 63755) The deprecated constants RC_MOVE and RC_MOVE_OVER_REDIRECT were
+ removed.
+* Special:MostLinkedTemplates has been renamed to Special:MostTranscludedPages.
+* 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.
+* ResourceLoaderFileModule#getAllStyleFiles now returns all style files and all
+ skin style files used by the module.

+* RSS and Atom feeds generated by MediaWiki no longer include a fallback
+ stylesheet. It was ignored by most browsers these days anyway.
+* SpecialSearchNoResults hook has been removed. SpecialSearchResults is now
+ called unconditionally.
+* TablePager::getBody() is now 'final' and can't be overridden in subclasses.
+* TablePager::getBody() is deprecated, use getBodyOutput() or getFullOutput().
+* Added $outputPage parameter to the SkinTemplateGetLanguageLink hook.
+* log_page for move log entries store the original page ID, rather than that
+ of the new redirect page. This is not retroactive.
+* LCStoreAccel was removed. $wgLocalisationCacheConf can no longer be set to
+ use this store class.
+* Html::infoBox() no longer accepts paths relative to skins/common/images/.
+* Deprecated defunct Skin::getCommonStylePath().
+* Some extensions had their ResourceLoader modules depend on the "mediawiki"
+ and "jquery" modules. In the past, this behavior was undefined, now it will
+ throw an error.
+* Removed BagOStuff::replace(). (deprecated since 1.23)
+* In Linker.php, link(), linkText() and makeBrokenImageLinkObj() now display
+ warnings if their first parameter is not a Title object. Also makeImageLink()
+ now requires a Parser as its first parameter.
+* (bug 67368) LESS functions embed() and embeddable(), added in MediaWiki 1.23
+ and broken by design, have been removed. Use appropriate LESS mixins instead.
+* Removed cssjanus.py from maintenance directory as it was unused.
+* Removed maintenance/purgeOldText.inc and the PurgeRedundantText() function
+ it contained (superseded by Maintenance::purgeRedundantText() in 1.16).
+ The purgeOldText.php maintenance script has been retained.
+* PHPUnit tests can be found by directory discovery, by adding the directory
+ path from your UnitTestsList callback. Older versions of MediaWiki core will
+ barf at this usage.

== MediaWiki 1.23 ==
+++ /dev/null
-Security reminder: If you have PHP's register_globals option set, you must
-turn it off. MediaWiki will no longer work with it enabled.
-
-== MediaWiki 1.24 ==
-
-THIS IS NOT A RELEASE YET
-
-MediaWiki 1.24 is an alpha-quality branch and is not recommended for use in
-production.
-
-=== Configuration changes in 1.24 ===
-* MediaWiki will no longer run if register_globals is enabled. It has been
- deprecated for 5 years now, and was removed in PHP 5.4. For more information
- about why, see <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/register_globals>.
-* MediaWiki now requires PHP's iconv extension. openSUSE users may need to
- install the php5-iconv package. Users of other systems may need to add
- extension=iconv.so to php.ini or recompile PHP without --without-iconv.
-* MediaWiki will no longer function if magic quotes are enabled. It has
- been deprecated for 5 years now, and was removed in PHP 5.4.
-* The server's canonical hostname is available as $wgServerName, which is
- exposed in both mw.config and ApiQuerySiteInfo.
-* Introduced $wgPagePropsHaveSortkey as a backwards-compatibility switch,
- for using the old schema of the page_props table, in case the respective
- schema update was not applied.
-* $wgSearchEverythingOnlyLoggedIn was removed as the 'searcheverything'
- user option was removed. Use $wgNamespacesToBeSearchedDefault instead or
- if you used to have $wgDefaultUserOptions['searcheverything'] = 1.
-* $wgMasterWaitTimeout has been deprecated.
-* $wgDBClusterTimeout has been removed.
-* $wgProxyKey has been removed. It is no longer used by MediaWiki core.
- Ensure $wgSecretKey is set in LocalSettings.php.
-* $wgExtraInterlanguageLinkPrefixes is a new configuration variable that
- contains an array of interwiki prefixes that should be treated as language
- prefixes (i.e. turned into interlanguage links when $wgInterwikiMagic is set
- to true).
-* $wgParserTestRemote has been removed.
-* $wgCountTotalSearchHits has been removed. If you're concerned about efficiency
- of search, you should use something like CirrusSearch instead of built in
- search.
-* Users in the 'sysop' group have access to Special:MergeHistory by default.
-* $wgFileStore was removed after having been deprecated in 1.17. Alternative
- configurations are $wgDeletedDirectory and $wgHashedUploadDirectory.
-* The deprecated $wgUseCommaCount variable has been removed.
-* $wgEnableSorbs and $wgSorbsUrl have been removed.
-* The UserCryptPassword and UserComparePassword hooks are no longer called.
- Any extensions using them must be updated to use the Password Hashing API.
-* $wgCompiledFiles has been removed.
-* $wgSortSpecialPages was removed, the listing on Special:SpecialPages is
- now always sorted.
-* $wgSpecialPages may now use callback functions as an alternative to plain class names.
- This allows more control over constructor parameters.
-* $wgHTCPMulticastAddress, $wgHTCPMulticastRouting and $wgHTCPPort were removed.
-* $wgRC2UDPAddress, $wgRC2UDPInterwikiPrefix, $wgRC2UDPOmitBots, $wgRC2UDPPort
- and $wgRC2UDPPrefix have been removed.
-* The default password type for MediaWiki has been changed from MD5 to PBKDF2.
- Password hashes will automatically be updated as users log in. If necessary, the
- old MD5 hashing can be restored by changing $wgPasswordDefault to 'B'. In addition,
- there is a maintenance script wrapOldPassword.php that can wrap all passwords in
- PBKDF2 (or the hashing algorithm of your choice) if you don't want to wait for your
- users to log in.
-* $wgImportSources can now either be a regular array, or an associative map
- specifying subprojects on the interwiki map of the target wiki, or a mix of
- the two. Existing configurations will still work.
-* Users must be able to edit through a page's protection to be able to delete it.
-* The default thumb size ($wgDefaultUserOptions['thumbsize']) is now 300px, up from
- 180px. If you have altered the number of entries in $wgThumbLimits for your wiki, you
- may need to adjust your default user settings to compensate for the index change.
-* $wgDeferredUpdateList is now deprecated, you should use DeferredUpdates::addUpdate()
- instead.
-* $wgCanonicalLanguageLinks has been removed. Per Google recommendations, we
- will not send a rel=canonical pointing to a variant-neutral page, however
- we will send rel=alternate.
-* $wgResourceLoaderLESSFunctions has been deprecated and will be removed in the future.
-* $wgGoToEdit has been removed. Use the SpecialSearchNogomatch hook for similar
- functionality.
-
-=== New features in 1.24 ===
-* Added new hook WatchlistEditorBeforeFormRender, allowing subscribers to
- manipulate the list of pages and/or preload lots of data at once.
-* Added new argument &$link in hook WatchlistEditorBuildRemoveLine, allowing the
- link to the title to be changed.
-* Added a new hook, "WhatLinksHereProps", to allow extensions to annotate
- WhatLinksHere entries.
-* Added a new hook, "ContentGetParserOutput", to customize parser output for
- a given content object.
-* Deprecated the hook "ShowRawCssJs", use "ContentGetParserOutput" instead.
-* HTMLForm's HTMLTextField now supports the 'url' type.
-* HTMLForm fields may now be dynamically hidden based on the values of other
- fields in the form.
-* HTMLForm now supports multiple copies of an input field or set of input
- fields, e.g. the form may request "one or more usernames" without having to
- have the user enter delimited list of names into a text field.
-* Added a new hook, "SidebarBeforeOutput", to allow to edit the structure of
- the sidebar just before its display.
-* (bug 49156) Added the mediawiki.cookie ResourceLoader module, which wraps
- jquery.cookie so that getting/setting a cookie is syntactically and
- functionally similar to using the WebRequest::getCookie() and
- WebResponse::setcookie() methods.
-* (bug 44740) jQuery upgraded from 1.8.3 to 1.11.1. A new configuration option,
- $wgIncludejQueryMigrate, also loads the jQuery Migrate hack to let extensions
- and gadgets use the long-deprecated functions that were removed in jQuery 1.9.
- This option is turned off by default, and will be removed in MediaWiki 1.25.
-* (bug 47076) jQuery UI upgraded from 1.8.24 to 1.9.2.
-* Changes to content typography (fonts, etc.). See
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Typography_refresh for further information.
-* WikitextContent will now render redirects with the expected "redirect"
- header, rather than as an ordered list. Code calling Article::viewRedirect
- can probably be changed to no longer special-case redirects.
-* Header font set to a serif font stack. See
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Typography_refresh for further information.
-* (bug 65567) Added a new hook, "BeforeHttpsRedirect", to allow cancellation of
- the HTTP to HTTPS redirect due to forceHTTPS cookie, userRequires, etc. This
- is only for page views, since this hook doesn't affect UserLogin, OAuth,
- CentralAuth, etc. ATTENTION: This hook is likely to be removed soon due to
- overall design of the system.
-* (bug 17367) It is now possible to add pages to your watchlist from
- Special:UnwatchedPages without reloading the special page.
-* New methods setVolatile and isVolatile are added to PPFrame, so that
- extensions such as Cite.php can mark that their output is volatile and
- shouldn't be cached.
-* (bug 52817) Advanced search options are now saved on the search page itself,
- rather than in a dedicated pane in the preferences panel.
-* (bug 44591) The dropdown actions menu (little triangle next to page tabs) in
- the Vector skin has gained a label that should make it more discoverable.
-* MWCryptHKDF added for fast, cryptographically secure random number generation
- that won't deplete openssl's entropy pool.
-* ResourceLoader: File modules can now provide a skip function that uses an
- inline feature test to bypass loading of the module.
-* (bug 20210) Special pages may now provide autocompletion of their subpage
- names in search suggestions. Right now the only useful implementation is in
- Special:Log, but more are to come.
-* Special:MostLinkedTemplates is no longer limited to transclusions from the
- Template namespace.
-* Skins can now use 'remoteSkinPath' when defining ResourceLoader modules.
- This works the same as 'remoteExtPath' but is relative to the skins/ folder
- instead of the extensions/ folder.
-* Added the json2.js polyfill for the ES5 JSON.stringify and JSON.parse methods.
- Exposed as module "json" with a skip function to optimise loading.
-* Extensions and skins may now use 'namemsg' in $wgExtensionCredits in addition
- to 'name', to allow for the name to be localizable. 'name' should still be
- specified for backwards-compatibility and to define the path Special:Version
- uses to find extension license information.
-* Browser tests are now included to verify basic wiki functionality in developer
- environments. For details on running tests, see tests/browser/README.mediawiki.
-* Upgrade jStorage to v0.4.10.
-* {{!}} is now a magic word that produces the | character. This removes the need
- for Template:! for purposes such as passing pipes inside of parameters.
-* (bug 20790) The block log snippet on Special:Contributions and while
- editing user and user talk pages now works for IP range blocks.
-* (bug 9360) Added ability to change the page language for MediaWiki pages using
- Special:PageLanguage. All pages are set to wiki language by default.
- The feature needs to be enabled with $wgPageLanguageUseDB=true and
- permission needs to be set for 'pagelang'.
-* Upgrade Moment.js to v2.8.3.
-* (bug 67042) Added support for the HTML5 <rtc> tag for East Asian typography.
-* Upgrade Sinon.JS to 1.10.3.
-* Added the es5-shim polyfill for older or non-compliant javascript engines.
-* Upgrade jQuery Cookie to v1.3.1.
-* (bug 20476) Add a "viewsuppressed" user right to be able to view
- suppressed content but not suppress it ("suppressrevision" right).
-* (bug 66440) The MediaWiki web installer will now allow you to choose the skins
- to enable (from the ones included in download tarball) and decide which one
- should be the default.
-* (bug 68085, 68802) Links like [[localInterwikiPrefix:languageCode:pageTitle]],
- where localInterwikiPrefix is a member of the $wgLocalInterwikis array, will
- no longer be displayed in the sidebar when $wgInterwikiMagic is true. In a
- similar way, links like [[localInterwikiPrefix:File:Image.png]] and
- [[localInterwikiPrefix:Category:Hello]] will now render as regular links, and
- will not include the file or add the page to the category.
-* New special page, MyLanguage, to redirect users to subpages with localised
- versions of a page. (Integrated from Extension:Translate)
-* MediaWiki now supports multiple password types, including bcrypt and PBKDF2.
- The default type can be changed with $wgPasswordDefault and the type
- configurations can be changed with $wgPasswordConfig.
-* Skins can now define custom styles for default ResourceLoader modules using
- the $wgResourceModuleSkinStyles global. See the Vector skin for examples.
-* (bug 4488) There is now a preference to watch pages where the user has
- rollbacked an edit by default.
-* (bug 15484) Users will now be redirected to the login page when they need to
- log in, rather than being shown a page asking them to log in and having to click
- another link to actually get to the login page.
-* A JsonContent and JsonContentHandler were added for extensions to extend.
-* (bug 35045) Redirects to sections will now update the URL in browser's address
- bar using the HTML5 History API. When [[Dog]] redirects to [[Animals#Dog]],
- the user will now see "Animals#Dog" in their browser instead of "Dog#Dog".
-* API token handling has been rewritten. Any API module using tokens will need
- to be updated. See the entry below under "Action API internal changes".
-* Added HTMLAutoCompleteSelectField.
-* Added a new hook, "SkinPreloadExistence", to allow extensions to add titles to
- link existence cache before the page is rendered.
-* Config::set() was moved to its own interface, MutableConfig. GlobalVarConfig::set()
- is now deprecated, does not implement MutableConfig.
-* A MutableConfig named HashConfig was added, that stores an array of configuration
- settings.
-* (bug 69418) A MultiConfig implementation was added that supports fallback
- to multiple Config instances.
-* Update CSSJanus to v1.1.0.
-* Added FormatJson::parse() returning status with result or localized error message
-
-=== Bug fixes in 1.24 ===
-* (bug 50572) MediaWiki:Blockip should support gender
-* (bug 49116) Footer copyright notice is now always displayed in user language
- rather than content language (same as copyright notice for editing interface).
-* (bug 62258) A bug was fixed in File::getUnscaledThumb when a height
- restriction was present in the parameters. Images with both the "frame"
- option and a size specification set will now always ignore the provided
- size and display an unscaled image, as the documentation has always
- claimed it would.
-* (bug 39035) Improved Vector skin performance by removing collapsibleNav,
- which used to collapse some sidebar elements by default.
- This removes -list id suffixes like p-lang-list: instead of using things like
- #p-lang-list, you can do #p-lang .body ul.
-* (bug 890) Links in Special:RecentChanges and Special:Watchlist no longer
- follow redirects to their target pages.
-* Parser now dies early if called recursively, instead of producing subtle bugs.
-* (bug 14323) Redirect pages, when viewed with redirect=no, no longer hide the
- remaining page content.
-* (bug 52587) Maintenance script deleteBatch.php no longer follows redirects
- in the file namespace and delete the file on the target page. It will still
- however delete the redirect page.
-* (bug 22683) {{msgnw:}} and other uses of PPFrame::RECOVER_ORIG will correctly
- recover the original code of extension tags.
-* (bug 65757) MSSQL: Update script drops unnamed constraints to be prepared
- for future updates. Because it's doing so heuristically, it may fail or drop
- wrong constraints.
-* (bug 67870) wfShellExec() cuts off stdout at multiples of 8192 bytes.
-* $wgRunJobsAsync now works with private wikis (e.g. read requires login).
-* (bugs 57238, 65206) Blank pages can now be directly created.
-* (bug 69789) Title::getContentModel() now loads from the database when
- necessary instead of incorrectly returning the default content model.
-* (bug 69249) wfBaseConvert() now works around PHP Bug #50175 when using GMP.
-* (bug 57909) URLs in the externallinks table will no longer have certain
- characters decoded in the query string.
-* (bug 67368) LESS mixins like .background-image() correctly flip image
- references for RTL stylesheets now.
-
-=== Action API changes in 1.24 ===
-* action=parse API now supports prop=modules, which provides the list of
- ResourceLoader modules that should be used to enhance the parsed content.
-* action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=interwikimap returns a new "protorel"
- field which is true if protocol-relative urls can be used to access
- a particular interwiki map entry.
-* list=logevents now provides logpage, which is the page ID from the
- logging table, if ids are requested and the user has the permissions.
-* action=edit now requires that appendtext, prependtext, or section=new be used
- when using the 'redirect' parameter, to prevent clients accidentally
- overwriting the target page with the content of the redirect.
-* list=logevents will now return an error if both letitle and leprefix are
- specified.
-* list=logevents has a new parameter, lenamespace, to allow filtering by
- namespace.
-* action=expandtemplates has a new parameter, prop, and a new output format.
- The old format is still used if prop isn't provided, but this is deprecated.
-* meta=userinfo can now return the count of unread pages on the watchlist.
-* list=watchlist can now filter by unread status.
-* The deprecated action=parse&prop=languageshtml has been removed.
-* (bug 48071) action=setnotificationtimestamp no longer throws PHP or database
- errors when no pages are given.
-* (bug 60734) Actions that use ApiPageSet (e.g. purge, watch,
- setnotificationtimestamp) will now include continuation information when
- using a generator.
-* Removed 'props' and 'errors' from action=paraminfo, as they have extremely
- limited use and are generally inaccurate, unmaintained, and impossible to
- properly maintain.
-* Formats dbg, dump, txt, wddx, and yaml are now deprecated.
-* action=paraminfo now indicates when a parameter is specifying a submodule.
-* The iwurl parameter to prop=iwlinks is deprecated in favor of iwprop=url, for
- parallelism with prop=langlinks.
-* All tokens should be fetched from action=query&meta=tokens; all other methods
- of fetching tokens are deprecated. The value needed for meta=tokens's 'type'
- parameter for each module is documented in the action=help output and is
- returned from action=paraminfo.
-* New action ClearHasMsg that can be used to clear HasMsg flag.
-* The cmstartsortkey and cmendsortkey parameters to list=categorymembers are
- deprecated in favor of cmstarthexsortkey and cmendhexsortkey.
-* (bug 63326) Add blockedtimestamp field to output of blockinfo property for
- the list=allusers and list=users modules.
-* prop=imageinfo no longer requires iiurlwidth to be set when using iiurlparam.
-* Added prop=linkshere, prop=fileusage, and prop=transcludedin, which are
- roughly equivalent to list=backlinks, list=imageusage, and list=embeddedin
- but can work on a list of titles (including titles from a generator).
-* prop=redirects can now filter returned redirects by namespace.
-
-=== Action API internal changes in 1.24 ===
-* Methods for handling continuation are added to ApiResult, so actions other
- than query that use generators can easily support continuation.
-* $wgAPIModules (and the related $wgAPIFormatModules, $wgAPIMetaModules,
- $wgAPIPropModules, and $wgAPIListModules settings) now allow API modules
- to be specified using a "module spec" array instead of a plain class name.
- A "module spec" is an associative array containing at least the 'class' key
- for the module's class, and optionally a 'factory' key for the factory function
- to use for the module. This is intended for extensions that want control over
- the instantiation of their API modules, to allow for proper dependency
- injection.
-* A new param type 'submodule' is available. Parameters of this type will take
- the list of valid values from the module's ApiModuleManager for the group
- corresponding to the parameter name.
-* The 'APIGetPossibleErrors' and 'APIGetResultProperties' hooks are no longer used.
-* API token handling has been rewritten. Any API module using tokens will need
- to be updated:
- * ApiBase::needsToken now returns a token type instead of boolean true when a
- token is needed. Returning true will throw an exception. See documentation
- of that method for details.
- * Information for the 'token' parameter is automatically set by ApiBase
- getFinalParams and getFinalParamDescription.
- * ApiBase::getTokenSalt has been removed.
- * The hooks APIQueryInfoTokens, APIQueryRevisionsTokens,
- APIQueryRecentChangesTokens, APIQueryUsersTokens, and
- ApiTokensGetTokenTypes are deprecated, but are still called to support
- backwards-compatible token access.
-* ApiBase::validateLimit and ApiBase::validateTimestamp are now protected.
-* ApiQueryRedirects was removed; prop=redirects is now implemented by
- ApiQueryBacklinksProp along with the newly-added prop modules.
-* The following methods have been deprecated and may be removed in a future
- release:
- * ApiBase::getResultProperties
- * ApiBase::getFinalResultProperties
- * ApiBase::addTokenProperties
- * ApiBase::getRequireOnlyOneParameterErrorMessages
- * ApiBase::getRequireMaxOneParameterErrorMessages
- * ApiBase::getRequireAtLeastOneParameterErrorMessages
- * ApiBase::getTitleOrPageIdErrorMessage
- * ApiBase::getPossibleErrors
- * ApiBase::getFinalPossibleErrors

- * ApiQueryRecentChanges::getPatrolToken
- * ApiQueryRevisions::getTokenFunctions
- * ApiQueryRevisions::getRollbackToken
- * ApiQueryUsers::getTokenFunctions
- * ApiQueryUsers::getUserrightsToken
-* The following classes have been deprecated and may be removed in a future
- release:
- * ApiFormatDbg
- * ApiFormatDump
- * ApiFormatTxt
- * ApiFormatWddx
- * ApiFormatYaml
- * ApiTokens
-* The following class constants have been deprecated and may be removed in a
- future release:
- * ApiBase::PROP_ROOT
- * ApiBase::PROP_LIST
- * ApiBase::PROP_TYPE
- * ApiBase::PROP_NULLABLE
-
-=== Languages updated in 1.24 ===
-
-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.
-
-=== Other changes in 1.24 ===
-* The deprecated jquery.delayedBind ResourceLoader module was removed.
-* The deprecated function mw.util.toggleToc was removed.
-* The Special:Search hooks SpecialSearchGo and SpecialSearchResultsAppend
- were removed as they were unused.
-* (bug 65477) User::pingLimiter() now has an additional profile point varying
- by action being used.
-* mediawiki.util.$content no longer supports old versions of the Vector,
- Monobook, Modern and CologneBlue skins that don't yet implement the "mw-body"
- and/or "mw-body-primary" class name in their html.
-* Added pp_sortkey column to page_props table, so pages can be efficiently
- queried and sorted by property value (bug 58032).
- See $wgPagePropsHaveSortkey if you want to postpone the schema change.
-* BREAKING CHANGE: All four built-in MediaWiki skins (Vector, MonoBook, Modern
- and Cologne Blue) were moved out of MediaWiki core to their own respective
- repositories. They will be installed with the release tarball, but you must
- install them separately if installing MediaWiki from source code. A warning
- message displayed until you do it should guide you through the process. See
- also <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skin_configuration>.
-* BREAKING CHANGE: Skins built for MediaWiki 1.15 and earlier that do not use
- the "headelement" template key are no longer supported. Setting
- $useHeadElement = false; is no longer supported and will not cause old keys
- like "headlinks", "skinnameclass", etc. to be defined.
-* BREAKING CHANGE: The files commonElements.css, commonContent.css and
- commonInterface.css (in skins/common/) have been removed. Skins may no longer
- rely on their presence and include them in their style modules. ResourceLoader
- modules introduced in MediaWiki 1.23 should be loaded instead:
- - skins/common/commonElements.css → 'mediawiki.skinning.elements' module
- - skins/common/commonContent.css → 'mediawiki.skinning.content' module
- - skins/common/commonInterface.css → 'mediawiki.skinning.interface' module

- removed.
-* Special:MostLinkedTemplates has been renamed to Special:MostTranscludedPages.

- throw an error.
-* Removed BagOStuff::replace(). (deprecated since 1.23)
-* In Linker.php, link(), linkText() and makeBrokenImageLinkObj() now display
- warnings if their first parameter is not a Title object. Also makeImageLink()
- now requires a Parser as its first parameter.

- path from your UnitTestsList callback. Older versions of MediaWiki core will
- barf at this usage.

-
-== Compatibility ==
-
-MediaWiki 1.24 requires PHP 5.3.2 or later. There is experimental support for
-HHVM 3.3.0.
-
-MySQL is the recommended DBMS. PostgreSQL or SQLite can also be used, but
-support for them is somewhat less mature. There is experimental support for
-Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server.
-
-The supported versions are:
-
-* MySQL 5.0.2 or later
-* PostgreSQL 8.3 or later
-* SQLite 3.3.7 or later
-* Oracle 9.0.1 or later
-* Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (9.00.1399)
-
-== Upgrading ==
-
-1.24 has several database changes since 1.23, and will not work without schema
-updates. Note that due to changes to some very large tables like the revision
-table, the schema update may take quite long (minutes on a medium sized site,
-many hours on a large site).
-
-If upgrading from before 1.11, and you are using a wiki as a commons
-repository, make sure that it is updated as well. Otherwise, errors may arise
-due to database schema changes.
-
-If upgrading from before 1.7, you may want to run refreshLinks.php to ensure
-new database fields are filled with data.
-
-If you are upgrading from MediaWiki 1.4.x or earlier, you should upgrade to
-1.5 first. The upgrade script maintenance/upgrade1_5.php has been removed
-with MediaWiki 1.21.
-
-Don't forget to always back up your database before upgrading!
-
-See the file UPGRADE for more detailed upgrade instructions.
-
-For notes on 1.23.x and older releases, see HISTORY.
-
-== Online documentation ==
-
-Documentation for both end-users and site administrators is available on
-MediaWiki.org, and is covered under the GNU Free Documentation License (except
-for pages that explicitly state that their contents are in the public domain):
-
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Documentation
-
-== Mailing list ==
-
-A mailing list is available for MediaWiki user support and discussion:
-
- https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
-
-A low-traffic announcements-only list is also available:
-
- https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-announce
-
-It's highly recommended that you sign up for one of these lists if you're
-going to run a public MediaWiki, so you can be notified of security fixes.
-
-== IRC help ==
-
-There's usually someone online in #mediawiki on irc.freenode.net.
