MediaWiki 1.20

This is the latest released version of MediaWiki.

Starting in April 2012, the Wikimedia Foundation started deploying MediaWiki to its projects more often (and almost directly from the master branch) through incremental "wmf"-branches within the 1.20 release cycle. The 1.20.0 stable tarball came out November 7th 2012.

 * New special page Special:MostInterwikis.
 * New magic word   which gives the current page ID.
