+= MediaWiki 1.30 =
+
+== MediaWiki 1.30.0 ==
+
+=== Changes since MediaWiki 1.30.0-rc.0 ===
+* Upgraded Moment.js from v2.15.0 to v2.19.3.
+* Add ip_changes to postgres/tables.sql.
+* Skip null shell parameters.
+* Add wfWaitForSlaves() to maintenance/migrateComments.php.
+* (T182245) Fix join conditions in ImageListPager.
+* (T178626) Revert #contentSub and #jump-to-nav margin changes.
+
+=== MySQL version requirement in 1.30 ===
+As of 1.30, MediaWiki now requires MySQL 5.5.8 or higher (see Compatibility
+section).
+
+=== Configuration changes in 1.30 ===
+* The "C.UTF-8" locale should be used for $wgShellLocale, if available, to avoid
+ unexpected behavior when code uses locale-sensitive string comparisons. For
+ example, the Scribunto extension considers "bar" < "Foo" in most locales
+ since it ignores case.
+* $wgShellLocale now affects LC_ALL rather than only LC_CTYPE. See
+ documentation of $wgShellLocale for details.
+* $wgShellLocale is now applied for all requests. wfInitShellLocale() is
+ deprecated and a no-op, as it is no longer needed.
+* $wgJobClasses may now specify callback functions as an alternative to plain
+ class names. This is intended for extensions that want control over the
+ instantiation of their jobs, to allow for proper dependency injection.
+* $wgResourceModules may now specify callback functions as an alternative
+ to plain class names, using the 'factory' key in the module description
+ array. This allows dependency injection to be used for ResourceLoader modules.
+* $wgExceptionHooks has been removed.
+* (T163562) $wgRangeContributionsCIDRLimit was introduced to control the size
+ of IP ranges that can be queried at Special:Contributions.
+* (T45547) $wgUsePigLatinVariant added (off by default).
+* (T152540) MediaWiki now supports a section ID escaping style that allows to display
+ non-Latin characters verbatim on many modern browsers. This is controlled by the
+ new configuration setting, $wgFragmentMode.
+* $wgExperimentalHtmlIds is now deprecated and will be removed in a future version,
+ use $wgFragmentMode to migrate off it to a modern alternative.
+* $wgExternalInterwikiFragmentMode was introduced to control how fragments in
+ sinterwikis going outside of current wiki farm are encoded.
+* (T120333) Soft-deprecated the use of PHP extension 'mysql' in favor of 'mysqli'.
+ This PHP extension was deprecated in PHP 5.5 and removed in PHP 7.0. MediaWiki
+ auto-selects the 'mysqli' driver since MediaWiki 1.22, except if explicitly
+ requested through the configuration parameter $wgDBservers.
+* $wgOOUIEditPage was removed, as it is now the default. This was documented as a
+ temporary variable during the migration period.
+
+=== New features in 1.30 ===
+* (T37247) Output from Parser::parse() will now be wrapped in a div with
+ class="mw-parser-output" by default. This may be changed or disabled using
+ ParserOptions::setWrapOutputClass().
+* (T163562) Added ability to search for contributions within an IP ranges
+ at Special:Contributions.
+* Added 'ChangeTagsAllowedAdd' hook, enabling extensions to allow software-
+ specific tags to be added by users.
+* Added a 'ParserOptionsRegister' hook to allow extensions to register
+ additional parser options.
+* (T45547) Included Pig Latin, a language game in English, as a
+ LanguageConverter variant. This allows English-speaking developers
+ to develop and test LanguageConverter more easily. Pig Latin can be
+ enabled by setting $wgUsePigLatinVariant to true.
+* Added RecentChangesPurgeRows hook to allow extensions to purge data that
+ depends on the recentchanges table.
+* Added JS config values wgDiffOldId/wgDiffNewId to the output of diff pages.
+* (T2424) Added direct unwatch links to entries in Special:Watchlist (if the
+ 'watchlistunwatchlinks' preference option is enabled). With JavaScript
+ enabled, these links toggle so the user can also re-watch pages that have
+ just been unwatched.
+* Added $wgParserTestMediaHandlers, where mock media handlers can be passed to
+ MediaHandlerFactory for parser tests.
+* Edit summaries, block reasons, and other "comments" are now stored in a
+ separate database table. Use the CommentFormatter class to access them.
+** This is currently gated by $wgCommentTableSchemaMigrationStage. Most wikis
+ can set this to MIGRATION_NEW and run maintenance/migrateComments.php as
+ soon as any necessary extensions are updated.
+* (T138166) Added ability for users to prohibit other users from sending them
+ emails with Special:Emailuser. Can be enabled by setting
+ $wgEnableUserEmailBlacklist to true.
+* (T67297) $wgBrowserBlacklist is deprecated, and changing it will have no effect.
+ Instead, users using browsers that do not support Unicode will be unable to edit
+ and should upgrade to a modern browser instead.
+
+=== External library changes in 1.30 ===
+
+==== Upgraded external libraries ====
+* Updated justinrainbow/json-schema from v3.0 to v5.2.
+* Updated mediawiki/mediawiki-codesniffer from v0.7.2 to v0.12.0.

+
+==== New external libraries ====
+* The class \TestingAccessWrapper has been moved to the external library
+ wikimedia/testing-access-wrapper and renamed \Wikimedia\TestingAccessWrapper.
+* Purtle, a fast, lightweight RDF generator.
+
+==== Removed and replaced external libraries ====
+* …
+
+=== Bug fixes in 1.30 ===
+* (T151633) Ordered list items use now Devanagari digits in Nepalese
+ (thanks to Sfic)
+
+=== Action API changes in 1.30 ===
+* (T37247) action=parse output will be wrapped in a div with
+ class="mw-parser-output" by default. This may be changed or disabled using
+ the new 'wrapoutputclass' parameter.
+* When errorformat is not 'bc', abort reasons from action=login will be
+ formatted as specified by the error formatter parameters.
+* action=compare can now handle arbitrary text, deleted revisions, and
+ returning users and edit comments.
+* (T164106) The 'rvdifftotext', 'rvdifftotextpst', 'rvdiffto',
+ 'rvexpandtemplates', 'rvgeneratexml', 'rvparse', and 'rvprop=parsetree'
+ parameters to prop=revisions are deprecated, as are the similarly named
+ parameters to prop=deletedrevisions, list=allrevisions, and
+ list=alldeletedrevisions. Use action=compare, action=parse, or
+ action=expandtemplates instead.
+
+=== Action API internal changes in 1.30 ===
+* ApiBase::getDescriptionMessage() and the "apihelp-*-description" messages are
+ deprecated. The existing message should be split between "apihelp-*-summary"
+ and "apihelp-*-extended-description".
+* (T123931) Individual values of multi-valued parameters can now be marked as
+ deprecated.
+
+=== Languages updated in 1.30 ===
+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 Phabricator reports.
+
+* Added: kbp (Kabɩyɛ / Kabiyè)
+* Added: skr (Saraiki, سرائیکی)
+* Added: tay (Tayal / Atayal)
+* Removed: tokipona (Toki Pona)
+
+==== Pig Latin added ====
+* (T45547) Added Pig Latin, a made-up English variant (en-x-piglatin),
+ for easier variant development and testing. Disabled by default. It can be
+ enabled by setting $wgUsePigLatinVariant to true.
+
+=== Other changes in 1.30 ===
+* The use of an associative array for $wgProxyList, where the IP address is in
+ the key instead of the value, is deprecated (e.g. [ '127.0.0.1' => 'value' ]).
+ Please convert these arrays to indexed/sequential ones (e.g. [ '127.0.0.1' ]).
+* mw.user.bucket (deprecated in 1.23) was removed.
+* LoadBalancer::getServerInfo() and LoadBalancer::setServerInfo() are
+ deprecated. There are no known callers.
+* File::getStreamHeaders() was deprecated.
+* MediaHandler::getStreamHeaders() was deprecated.
+* Title::canTalk() was deprecated. The new Title::canHaveTalkPage() should be
+ used instead.

+* The OutputPage::addParserOutputNoText and ::getHeadLinks methods (both
+ deprecated in 1.24) were removed.

+ BagOStuff::makeGlobalKey() should be used instead.
+* (T146304) Preprocessor handling of LanguageConverter markup has been improved.
+ As a result of the new uniform handling, '-{' may need to be escaped
+ (for example, as '-<nowiki/>{') where it occurs inside template arguments
+ or wikilinks.
+* (T163966) Page moves are now counted as edits for the purposes of
+ autopromotion, i.e., they increment the user_editcount field in the database.
+* Two new hooks, LogEventsListLineEnding and NewPagesLineEnding, were added for
+ manipulating Special:Log and Special:NewPages lines.
+* The OldChangesListRecentChangesLine, EnhancedChangesListModifyLineData,
+ PageHistoryLineEnding, ContributionsLineEnding and DeletedContributionsLineEnding
+ hooks have an additional parameter, for manipulating HTML data attributes of
+ RC/history lines. EnhancedChangesListModifyBlockLineData can do that via the
+ $data['attribs'] subarray.
+* (T130632) The OutputPage::enableTOC() method was removed.
+* WikiPage::getParserOutput() will now throw an exception if passed
+ ParserOptions that would pollute the parser cache. Callers should use
+ WikiPage::makeParserOptions() to create the ParserOptions object and only
+ change options that affect the parser cache key.
+* Article::viewRedirect() is deprecated.
+* IP::isValidBlock() was deprecated. Use the equivalent IP::isValidRange().
+* DeprecatedGlobal no longer supports passing in a direct value, it requires a
+ callable factory function or a class name.

+ are all deprecated. The main ParserCache instance should be obtained from
+ MediaWikiServices instead. Access to the underlying BagOStuff is possible
+ through the new ParserCache::getCacheStorage() method.
+* .mw-ui-constructive CSS class (deprecated in 1.27) was removed.
+* Sanitizer::escapeId() was deprecated, use escapeIdForAttribute(),
+ escapeIdForLink() or escapeIdForExternalInterwiki() instead.
+* Title::escapeFragmentForURL() was deprecated, use one of the aforementioned
+ Sanitizer functions or, if possible, Title::getFragmentForURL().
+* Second parameter to Sanitizer::escapeIdReferenceList() ($options) now does
+ nothing and is deprecated.
+* mw.util.escapeId() was deprecated, use escapeIdForAttribute() or
+ escapeIdForLink().
+* MagicWord::replaceMultiple() (deprecated in 1.25) was removed.
+* WikiImporter now requires the second parameter to be an instance of the Config,
+ class. Prior to that, the Config parameter was optional (a behavior deprecated in

+ use ::getSummaryInputWidget() instead.
+ * EditPage::getCheckboxes() and ::getCheckboxesOOUI() are deprecated. Please
+ use ::getCheckboxesWidget() instead.

+ be avoided and will be deprecated in a future release.
+ * EditPage::safeUnicodeInput() and ::safeUnicodeOutput() are deprecated and no-ops.
+ * EditPage::$isCssJsSubpage, ::$isCssSubpage, and ::$isJsSubpage are deprecated. The
+ corresponding methods from Title should be used instead.
+ * EditPage::$isWrongCaseCssJsPage is deprecated. There is no replacement.
+ * EditPage::$mArticle and ::$mTitle are deprecated for public usage. The getters
+ ::getArticle() and ::getTitle() should be used instead.
+ * Trying to control or fake EditPage context by overriding $wgUser, $wgRequest, $wgOut,
+ and $wgLang is no longer supported and won't work. The IContextSource returned from
+ EditPage::getContext() must be modified instead.
+* Parser::getRandomString() (deprecated in 1.26) was removed.
+* Parser::uniqPrefix() (deprecated in 1.26) was removed.
+* Parser::extractTagsAndParams() now only accepts three arguments. The fourth,

+* (T172514) The following tables have had their UNIQUE indexes turned into proper
+ PRIMARY KEYs for increased maintainability: categorylinks, imagelinks, iwlinks,
+ langlinks, log_search, module_deps, objectcache, pagelinks, query_cache, site_stats,

+* DB_SLAVE is deprecated. DB_REPLICA should be used instead.
+* wfUsePHP() is deprecated.
+* wfFixSessionID() was removed.
+* wfShellExec() and related functions are deprecated, use Shell::command(). This also
+ slightly changes the behavior of how execution time limits are calculated when only
+ some of defaults are overridden per-call. When in doubt, always override both wall
+ clock and CPU time.
+* (T138166) SpecialEmailUser::getTarget() now requires a second argument, the sending
+ user object. Using the method without the second argument is deprecated.
+* (T67297) Browsers that don't support Unicode will have their edits rejected.

-== Upgrading ==
-1.30 has several database changes since 1.29, 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 a long time (minutes on a medium sized site,
-many hours on a large site).
-
-Don't forget to always back up your database before upgrading!
-
-See the file UPGRADE for more detailed upgrade instructions, including
-important information when upgrading from versions prior to 1.11.
