== Upgrading notes for 1.39 ==
Don't forget to always back up your database before upgrading!
For a general manual to upgrade MediaWiki see:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading
=== External library changes in 1.39 ===
==== New external libraries ====
* "symfony/polyfill-php73": "^1.26.0"
* "swaggest/json-diff": "^3.9"
==== Changed external libraries ====
* "wikimedia/timestamp": "^4.0.0"
=== Action API changes in 1.39 ===
* T104344: The wbsearchentities response has a new `display` field for each result. It may contain a `label` and `description` key.
Each of those will contain a `text` and a `language` key with the respective data.
The top-level `label`, `description` and `aliases` keys of each result are now considered deprecated and should no longer be used.
See also the official [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikidata-tech@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/3LA6FDOZGSK6HSQY73XCFNT4BTYWOY64/ significant change announcement].
=== Languages updated in 1.39 ===
Wikibase supports over 300 languages. Many localisations are updated regularly.
Below only new and removed languages are listed, as well as changes to languages
because of Phabricator reports.
=== Breaking changes in 1.39 ===
* (T114577) The maintenance script populateInterwiki.php was removed, use the same script from core.
* (T140850) The php entry point were removed, use wfLoadExtension instead.
=== Deprecations in 1.39 ===
* (T312222) The LanguageFallbackLabelDescriptionLookupFactory service is deprecated.
Use the new FallbackLabelDescriptionLookupFactory service instead:
it has a very similar interface, but returns lookups that also resolve redirects.
