The 1.36.0-wmf.16 version of MediaWiki[0] has not yet been deployed to any wikis[1] due to this week's US Election Day holiday, and is currently blocked.

The new version cannot be deployed until these issues are resolved or appropriately triaged as less urgent:

* Use of FormatMetadata::formatNum with non-numeric value was deprecated in MediaWiki 1.36. [Called from FormatMetadata::makeFormattedData] - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T266677

* CommonsMetadata bad wfTimestamp call - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T267033

* Undefined index: . at Language.php:3348 - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T267091

* Live preview shows <previewnote> unparsed, with raw wikitext - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T266311

Thanks for any help resolving these issues. If they're handled in time to safely deploy before 15:00 PDT / 23:00 UTC today, the train can roll forward. Otherwise it can resume during US working hours on Thursday.[2]
