== Highlights ==
* MLEB now requires MediaWiki 1.35.3 and PHP 7.3.19
* This release contains security fixes. We recommend updating as soon as possible.
* Prevent non-wikitext pages from being marked for translation ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/718014|Gerrit]], [[phab:T163254|Phabricator]])
* Add support for moving talkpages when moving translatable pages ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/709102|Gerrit]], [[phab:T41023|Phabricator]])
* The translation UI (TUX) now uses the user preferred edit fonts when displaying the source message & the editor ([[gerrit:c/719641|Gerrit]], [[phab:T213658|Phabricator]])
== Known Issues ==
* The new Vector skin has a configuration parameter <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> that moves the language links from the sidebar into a menu beside the page title. With MediaWiki 1.36, New Vector (REL1_36 branch) and <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> set to true, the menu beside the title does not respond to click events and is hence unusable. We recommend setting <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> to false if you are using MediaWiki 1.36.
== Babel, cldr, and LocalisationUpdate ==
* Localisation and maintenance updates.
== CleanChanges ==
* Fix: RecentChanges: When filtering with only a nonexistent user, changes from all users are displayed ([https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/CleanChanges/+/730538 Gerrit], [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T293257 Phabricator])
