Timing of release and release notes
[edit]I would humbly suggest getting the release out if and only when the release notes are all done and ready to be published as well. And I think it used to be that way until recently. Rebastion2 (talk) 14:44, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
- I guess this is always the plan. Perhaps some human error was at play. This not done by machines. :) [[kgh]] (talk) 10:58, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- The associated page with the release notes, extracted from the file RELEASE-NOTES-1.40, was wikified since. I transcluded some parts of the release notes to make the main page MediaWiki 1.40 less empty and with a content similar to previous MW versions.
- At the contrary of previous versions, it’s not translatable like this but perhaps it would be better to make the release notes directly translatable? It would be a lot of work, but translators could focus on the transcluded parts presented in the main page. Any thoughts? ~ Seb35 [^_^] 19:09, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
Renameuser extension
[edit]It is stated "The RenameUser extension has been merged into MediaWiki core. If you have it installed, you should uninstall it."
Does it mean that I shall delete folder in the extensions category and/or delete wfLoadExtension ('Renameuser') in LocalSettings.php? Fokebox (talk) 09:52, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, first you can remove
wfLoadExtension ('Renameuser');
and following that you can also delete the "Renameuser" folder in your extensions directory. [[kgh]] (talk) 10:56, 10 July 2023 (UTC)- Thank you! Done! Fokebox (talk) 12:07, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
