Fanlore's MediaWiki upgrade is complete!

[fanloremod]

Fanlore's upgrade to MediaWiki version 1.26.2 has been successfully completed!

As described in our last post, you will see some aesthetic and functional changes to Fanlore with this new update.

We have also deployed three new MediaWiki extensions: Disambiguator, MobileFrontend, and Thanks. More information about these new features will be posted soon. We are also still looking into the VisualEditor extension, and will be inviting the Fanlore Gardeners to help with testing and feedback before the feature goes live.

Please let us know if you experience any problems with the upgraded site, either in the comments below or via our contact form. We are already aware of and investigating a few small formatting and behavioral bugs, and we will have updates for you soon.

Many thanks to Emufarmers for all his hard work on the upgrade!

I've noticed a couple of issues. Perhaps they are on the radar already?

A problem with apostrophes? I noticed that "Blake's 7" is now a red link. An example: http://fanlore.org/wiki/Liberator

Could we make “track changes” not the default?

The sizes of images that are not in galleries are too large. Can we bump them all down?

I think that toolbox bar thing at the top of talk pages is gone. When I went to sign a comment, I ended up hand typing the four squiggles.

what is the default when we are not logged in?
