-- Kartik Mistry

== Babel, CleanChanges and LocalisationUpdate == * Localisation updates only.

== CLDR == * Hebrew names for Cebuano and Norwegian are fixed. * cldr converted to extension registration. Please update your LocalSettings.php!

== Translate == * Old custom tokens were deprecated in favor of using regular "csrf" (previously known as "edit") token. If you are using Translate WebAPIs you might need to migrate. * Special:Translations no longer shows PHP notices for pages with invalid language codes * Special:Translate now longer shows deprecation warnings about access keys in the JavaScript console. * Translate is now syntactically compatible with PHP7. * Message group selector on Special:SearchTranslations no longer has glitchy behavior after selecting a group. * MessageIndex code was optimized. It now ignored messages not in $wgTranslateMessageNamespaces. By default this should be fine, but if you have translations in custom namespaces, check that they are included. * Pages with <languages /> now load faster with cold caches. * MachineTranslationAid no longer throws uncaught exceptions with default configuration that broke other translation aids.

== UniversalLanguageSelector == * ULS now uses extension registration and thus requires MediaWiki 1.25 or later * Input methods should now work inside Visual Editor.

* Fonts: ** OpenDyslexic font updated to latest upstream. ** Akkadian font should work again.

* Input Methods: * New input methods: ** Rodali (Assamese) layout. ** OdiScript (Oriya) layout. ** Yoruba layout.

* Updated input methods: ** Updated Oriya Lekhani layout. ** Digit fixes in Southern Kurdish layout. ** Minor fixes in Sinhala layout.
