&gt; &quot;NS_FILE&quot; was introduced to replace &quot;NS_IMAGE&quot; in MediaWiki 1.14, which<br>
&gt; was released in 2009, fourteen years ago.<br>
<br>
And in 14 years, Mediawiki has never warned users about it.<br>
<br>
The first time we learn about these things in practice is when<br>
something breaks. Usually after an upgrade.<br>
<br>
The devs really need to supply a linter that we can run on<br>
LocalSettings.php so we can discover the problems earlier than &quot;it<br>
broke after an upgrade.&quot; And hopefully the linter will suggest the<br>
next step, like renaming NS_IMAGE to NS_FILE.<br>
