Since i updated to mediawiki 1.16.4 whenever i insert a image no default caption (or tooltip)is added anymore. Normally the filename was added as caption.

I even can reproduce this in this wiki version (guess 1.17.x)

No Image caption (aka tooltip)

I guess some default has changed, but i can't find anything pointing me into the right direction

I found the issue myself, it's in includes/parser/Parser.php Following code change fixes the issue

I'm unsure if this is the correct place to fix it. Anyway, should i open a bug ?
