Configuration changes

 * $wgEnableAPI and $wgEnableWriteAPI are now deprecated and will be removed in a future version. The API is now considered to be stable, secure and essential.
 * $wgUsejQueryThree was removed, as it is now the default. This was documented as a temporary variable during the migration period, deprecated since 1.29.
 * $wgLogoHD has been updated to support svg images and uses $wgLogo where possible for fallback images such as png.
 * $wgFilterLogTypes will no longer ignore 'patrol' when user does not have the right to mark things patrolled.
 * Wikis that contain imported revisions or CentralAuth global blocks should run maintenance/cleanupUsersWithNoId.php.
 * $wgResourceLoaderMinifierStatementsOnOwnLine and $wgResourceLoaderMinifierMaxLineLength were removed (deprecated since 1.27).
 * $wgReferrerPolicy now supports having fallbacks for browsers that are not using the latest version of the Referrer Policy specification.
 * $wgFragmentMode is now set to [ 'legacy', 'html5' ] by default. This is a first step of migration to human-readable section IDs that will later result in 'html5' being the default mode.
 * The old CategorizedRecentChanges feature, including its related configuration option $wgAllowCategorizedRecentChanges, has been removed.
 * (T188472) The 'comma' value for $wgArticleCountMethod is no longer supported forperformance reasons, and installations with this setting will now work as if it was configured with 'any'.

New features

 * Wikimedia\Rdbms\IDatabase->select and similar methods now support joins with parentheses for grouping.
 * As a first pass in standardizing dialog boxes across the MediaWiki product, Html class now provides helper methods for messageBox, successBox, errorBox and warningBox generation.
 * Imports will now record unknown (and, optionally, known) usernames in a format like "iw>Example".
 * Linker (used on history pages, log pages, and so on) will display usernames formed like "iw>Example" as interwiki links, as if by wikitext like iw>Example.
 * The 'ImportHandleUnknownUser' hook allows extensions to auto-create users during an import.
 * Added a hook, ParserOutputPostCacheTransform, to allow extensions to affect the ParserOutput::getText post-cache transformations.

Languages updated

 * Mirandese (mwl) now supports gendered NS_USER/NS_USER_TALK namespaces.
