- Profiling statistics for an abuse filter tell how often edits match the filter. The statistics for the abuse filters were reset after 10000 actions. Wikis can now decide to reset it more or less often. They can file a phabricator task to do so. [1]
- Abuse filters will now treat integers and floats more precisely. For example, 5/2 was rounded down to 2 but will now be 2.5 and 2*4 will be the integer 8 and not the floating-point number 8.0. Division values are the only ones changed. For the rest only strict comparisons (

and!==
) will be affected leaving the values unchanged. [2][3] - The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 17 april. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 18 april. It will be on all wikis from 19 april (calendar).
