Legacy release
If your MediaWiki installation is heavily modified, it may be difficult to incorporate the latest official changes/updates to MediaWiki. To support such users, we maintain old branches of our code for up to a year.
 * Download legacy release MediaWiki

Development releases
If you want to run on the latest development (i.e. alpha) version, you either have to use Git or download a snapshot by clicking on this link. See also Nightlies for nightly builds.


 * There are some test wikis where you can see last code in action
 * Project:Test reports is where to report bugs and give feedback about such unstable releases (which often have minor temporary problems, which are quickly fixed... but need to be found first)

Old releases
You can find tar balls (*.tar.gz) of all versions of MediaWiki back to February 2007 in the MediaWiki download archives

To browse, including even older versions, see the tags, of the Git repository.
