|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* MariaDB 10.3 or higher
|
|
|
|
|
* MySQL 5.7.0 or higher
|
|
|
|
|
* PostgreSQL 10 or later

== Mailing list ==
|
|
|
|
|
A mailing list is available for MediaWiki user support and discussion:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<https://lists.wikimedia.org/postorius/lists/mediawiki-l.lists.wikimedia.org/>
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
It's highly recommended that you sign up for one of these lists if you're
|
|
|
|
|
going to run a public MediaWiki, so you can be notified of security fixes.
