Bugfixes

Internationalization and localization

  • Updated Pig Latin English (en-piglatin) and lolcat English (en-lolcat) translations
  • Fixed i18n bug in AJAX Poll extension — the extension was showing “There were 1 votes” instead of “There was one vote”. Translations of the ‘poll-info’ system message for Arabic (ar), Breton (br), German (de), Greek (el), Interlingua (ia), Macedonian (mk), Norwegian (no), Polish (pl), Piedmontese (pms) and Russian (ru) are thus outdated and we ask translators to update the message as per the English source text.
  • Dutch (nl) i18n for SiteMetrics social extension by Jedimca0
  • Initial Indonesian and Luxembourgish translations for HAWelcome extension, courtesy of translatewiki.net
  • Almost complete Polish (pl) localization for PrivateDomains, courtesy of translatewiki.net

New features

  • Special:Invite — a new special page for private wikis so that the stewards of private wikis can invite other users to the wiki
  • Special:Phalanx — a new, staff-only spam filter, which replaces the old regexBlock and spamRegex extensions

As always, if you find any bugs, please don’t hesitate to report them to us by using our bug tracker (Bugzilla).
