Files in this repository are almost a mirror of Wikimedia Foundation's production configuration of MediaWiki. Omitted files include passwords and security measures.

dblists/ List of wiki databases. For labs-only dblists, add "-labs" suffix before the file extension. If you add a new wiki, make the files are sorted using LC_COLLATE=C sort -n file -o file.

errorpages/ Central management of error pages used by app servers at the PHP or Apache level.

wikiversions.json, wikiversions.php wikiversions-labs.json, wikiversions-labs.php Let us associate a database with a specific copy of MediaWiki (generally a branch). The .php file is updated by editing wikiversions.json first and then running multiversion/updateWikiversions.
