-List of database patches and upgrades as the PediaWiki software evolves...
-
-* 2002-11-23: Search index format changed for UTF-8 wikis
-For wikis using the UTF-8 languages, the search index entries
-need to be rebuild to allow searching to work. (Other wikis
-that have been run through the old phase2->phase3 conversion
-script should also be reindexed to catch apostrophe misplacement.)
-
-Run rebuildIndex.php on your wiki.
-
-
-
-* 2002-11-27: Watchlist format changed
-Converts the user_watchlist entries out to a separate table which
-links user_id<->cur_id and can be more handily queried.
-
-Run upgradeWatchlist.php on your wiki.
-
-
-
-* 2002-12-14: Recentchanges table bot/hidden column
-Adds a column to indicate changes by registered bots (or perhaps
-later other admin actions) that should be hidden from the default
-Recentchanges list because people think they're tedious, but should
-still be available in article histories, contribs lists, and
-power-user RC lists.
-
-Run bot.sql against your database.
-
-
-
-* 2002-12-17: Watchlist format changed again
-Now using namespace, title instead of cur_id. This can track deleted/
-recreated pages better, makes it easier to handle talk pages (now with
-the auto-watch feature there's a lot more watching of talk pages!)
-and whatnot.
-
-Run patch-watchlist.sql against your database. If all is well, drop
-the oldwatchlist table which is no longer needed. (Note that this update
-also drops the vestigial user_watchlist column.)
-
-
-
-* 2002-12-26: TeX math rendering adds 'math' table
-A new 'math' table is used to cache TeX sections.
-
-Run patch-math.sql against your database, and add 'tmp' and 'math'
-subdirectories to your tree alongside the upload directory, and copy
-the 'math' source subdirectory under the wiki's PHP directory and run
-"make" to compile the texvc evaluator. (whew!)
-
-TeX support requires TeX, OCaml, and ImageMagick. If you don't want
-to use TeX support on your wiki, you can globally disable it by
-setting $wgUseTeX=false in LocalSettings.php.
-
-
-
-* 2003-01-25: searchindex table
-A new 'searchindex' table separates the fulltext index fields from
-'cur'. This enables use of InnoDB tables, which don't support fulltext
-search, for the main data, and will keep junk out of the backup dumps.
-
-Run patch-searchindex.sql on the database. If you wish to change table
-tables on the others, use 'alter table' manually. (See MySQL docs.)
-
-
-* 2003-01-24: Talk pages for anonymous users
-A new table user_newtalk contains a list of talk pages that were
-changed, both pages by anonymous and those by non-anonymous users.
-
-Run patch-usernewtalk.sql if your database was created before
-this date.
-
-
-* 2003-02-02: Math table changed
-Rerun patch-math.sql to recreate it.
-
-* 2003-02-03: Index added to USER table for performance reasons. Run
-patch-userindex.sql to create it.
-
-
-* 2003-02-09: Random table & inverse timestamps
-The random page queue table has been removed in favor of a column
-in the cur table. This eliminates the ssllooww queue refill step;
-pre-storing random indices in an indexed column means we can do the
-random sort instantly; each element is re-randomized upon selection.
-
-Also, an inverse_timestamp field has been added to the cur and old
-tables. This will allow fast index-based sorting in history lists,
-user contribs, linked recentchanges, etc with MySQL 3, which doesn't
-allow DESC ordering on an indexed field. This may be removed later
-when MySQL is found to be stable.
-
-
-* 2003-03-22: Last touched fields for caching
-'Last touched' timestamp fields have been added to the cur and user
-tables to aid in maintaining cache consistency. Web clients will
-be forced to reload a page if it has been touched since the client's
-cached copy (this will catch indirect changes like creation of
-linked pages) or if a user changes preferences or logs in anew (so
-visual changes and login status are taken into account).
-
-Run patch-cache.sql on the database to set these fields up. This is
-required for changes to OutputPage.php and elsewhere to continue
-working on an older database.
-
-
-* 2003-05-23: Index for "Oldest articles"
-"Oldest articles" needs an index on namespace, redirect and timestamp
-to be reasonably fast. (patch-oldestindex.sql)
-
-OutputPage.php User.php maintenance/buildTables.inc maintenance/patch-cache.sql maintenance/patch-list.txt
-
-* 2003-09: Ipblocks auto-expiry update
-patch-ipblocks.sql
-
-* Interwiki URL table
-Moves the interwiki prefix<->url mapping table from a static array
-into the database. If you've got a custom table, be sure to make
-your changes!
- 
-Run patch-interwiki.sql to create the interwiki table, then the
-plain interwiki.sql to load up the default set of mappings.
-
-* 2003-05-30: File upload license fields
-Adds fields to 'image' table.
-INCOMPLETE, DO NOT USE
-
-
-* 2003-08-21: Interwiki URL table

-into the database. If you've got a custom table, be sure to make

-plain interwiki.sql to load up the default set of mappings.
