This setting was inserted into the auto-generated LocalSettings.php file, along with the comment Not yet used:
$wgRightsCode = ""; # Not yet used
However, the setting was never used, and was ultimately removed in MediaWiki 1.18.
It is safe to remove this setting from your LocalSettings.php file if it is present, even if you are still using an old version of MediaWiki.
