Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora 25 Update: mediawiki has rolled out a critical update addressing the SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi issues experienced earlier.
Due to a mistake in packaging, the releases 1.27.2 and 1.28.1 did not contain the fix for SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi

Summary

MediaWiki is the software used for Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia

Foundation websites. Compared to other wikis, it has an excellent

range of features and support for high-traffic websites using multiple

servers

This package supports wiki farms. Read the instructions for creating wiki

instances under /usr/share/doc/mediawiki/README.RPM.

Remember to remove the config dir after completing the configuration.

Due to a mistake in packaging, the releases 1.27.2 and 1.28.1 did not contain

the fix for SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi. This new release does contain that fix.
