* Since MediaWiki 1.23, use of this variable to define messages is discouraged; instead, store
* messages in JSON format and use $wgMessagesDirs. For setting other variables than
* $messages, $wgExtensionMessagesFiles should still be used.
* $messages, $wgExtensionMessagesFiles should still be used. Use a DIFFERENT key because
* any entry having a key that also exists in $wgMessagesDirs will be ignored.
*
* If there is an entry in $wgMessagesDirs with the same key as one in
* $wgExtensionMessagesFiles, then any $messages variables set in the $wgExtensionMessagesFiles file
* will be ignored. This means an extension that only provides messages can be backwards compatible
* by using both $wgExtensionMessagesFiles and $wgMessagesDirs, and only one of the two
* will be used depending on what the version of MediaWiki supports.
* Extensions using the JSON message format can preserve backward compatibility with
* earlier versions of MediaWiki by using a compatibility shim, such as one generated
* by the generateJsonI18n.php maintenance script, listing it under the SAME key
* as for the $wgMessagesDirs entry.
