⌘⌘ Why should i migrate?

Bigstockphoto Pray 1018025.jpg
  • 1.31 LTS went end-of-life in June 2021.
  • 1.27 LTS went end-of-life in June 2019.
  • its an opportunity to clean and fix things
  • Avoid the "Just upgrade!" shame

⌘⌘ What is the effort?

  • It Depends ...
  • BITPlan and
    Hello World
    report multi-week efforts ...

⌘⌘ Is the migration reversible?

  • No its all or nothing!
  • really?
  • Really there is no proper incremental way
  • You'll not like to try so better assume "No!"

⌘⌘ List of Extensions

Extensionnameurlpurposesince
Admin LinksAdmin Linkshttps://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Admin LinksAdmin Links is an extension to MediaWiki that defines a special page, "Special:AdminLinks",
that holds links meant to be helpful for wiki administrators;
it is meant to serve as a "control panel" for the functions an administrator would typically perform in a wiki.
All users can view this page; however, for those with the 'adminlinks' permission (sysops/administrators, by default),
a link to the page also shows up in their "Personal URLs", between "Talk" and "Preferences".
