This week and next week we're deploying a new version of MediaWiki to
your wiki, as usual. This upgrade includes one-click (AJAX) patrolling,
for both new page and diff patrol (see bug 7851). Also, I thought you'd
want to know about these changes:
Internationalisation/localization:
* Now formatted numbers in Spanish use space as separator
for thousands, as mandated by the Real Academia Española.
* Kurdish formatted numbers now use period and comma
as separators for thousands and decimals respectively.
* Narayam: removed MyBest keyboard because of failing tests and no
documented reference
Template, user script, & skin hackers:
* The <data>, <time>, <meta>, and <link> elements are allowed
within
wikitext for use with Microdata.
* The HTML5 <mark> tag has been whitelisted.
* jQuery upgraded from 1.8.2 to 1.8.3.
* In your wiki's MediaWiki:<skin>.css, h4, h5, or h6 headings in the
sidebar have to be changed to h3 to work (more details at
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/30361/ and bug 457)
Wikisourcers:
* ProofreadPage gets an OAI-PMH API:
