My name is Mariya and I am an intern with the Wikimedia Foundation. I am currently working on reaching out to 3-rd party MediaWiki users to find out more about your problems, what features you would like to see in the future and how the community can make your work with MediaWiki easier and more efficient.
I have noticed at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Special:Version that you are using an old version of MediaWiki - 1.19.2 . I would live to invite you to upgrade to the current version 1.20.2 ,
which offers many new features as well as security fixes, or at least version 1.19.3 with the latest security fixes for 1.19.
I was wondering what is holding you back from upgrading to the current version. It seems that many MediaWiki users prefer to keep an old version. Please share your experience with upgrades at the appropriate thread at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:MediaWiki_vendors. There are other discussions on the page that you might want to join or if you have any other issues, please feel free to start a discussion yourself.
Another good communication channel I strongly encourage you to join if you have not done so already is the mediawiki-enterprise mailing list . Please feel free to use that for questions, comments, resources related to third-party use of MediaWiki. Also, I recommend the mediawiki-announce mailing list, which is very low traffic and will only inform you of new version releases.
Also, please keep in mind that if you decide to upgrade or have other problems, we are there to support you at #mediawiki on Freenode as well as the mediawiki-I mailing list.
Let me know if I can help somehow.
Mariya
