What is New in MediaWiki 1.26.3?
MediaWiki 1.26 is the current stable MediaWiki version.

• Performance
• ResourceLoader now loads all scripts asynchronously. The top-queue and startup modules no longer block synchronous loading.
• ResourceLoader minification is now cached in APC memory (if available) instead of the local database.
• Caches that need purging ability now use the WANObjectCache interface. This corresponds to a new $wgMainWANCache setting, which defaults to using the $wgMainCacheType settings.
• Callers needing fast light-weight data stores use $wgMainStash to select the store type from $wgObjectCaches.
• The default is the local database.
• Interface message overrides in the MediaWiki namespace will now be cached in memcached and APC (if available), rather than memcached and local files.
• $wgTransactionalTimeLimit was added, which controls the request time limit for potentially slow POST requests that need to be as atomic as possible.

New hooks

• A new hook, ‘LogException’, was added to log exceptions in non-standard ways.
• Revive the ‘SpecialSearchResultsAppend’ hook which occurs after the list of search results are rendered. The initial use case is to append a “give us feedback” link beneath the search results.
• Added a new hook, ‘RejectParserCacheValue’, which allows extensions to reject an otherwise-successful parser cache lookup. The intent is to allow extensions to manage the eviction of archaïc HTML output from the cache.
• Added new hooks ‘EnhancedChangesListModifyLineData’ & ‘EnhancedChangesListModifyBlockLineData’, to modify the data used to build lines in enhanced recentchanges and watchlist.
• Added a new hook, ‘RandomPageQuery’, to allow modification of the query used by Special:Random to select random pages.
