Mediawiki is een wiki-engine, uitgegeven onder de gpl-licentie, die gebruikt kan worden om content te creëren en te beheren. Het wordt onder andere gebruikt voor de websites van de Wikimedia Foundation, zoals Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikisource, Wikibooks en Wikiquote. Het uiterlijk is met behulp van skins geheel naar eigen wensen aan te passen, op deze pagina staan een aantal voorbeelden van verschillende skins. De ontwikkelaars hebben een nieuwe branch uitgebracht met 1.13.0 als het versienummer. De aankondiging samen met de immens lange lijst van aanpassingen zien er als volgt uit:
MediaWiki 1.13.0
This is the first stable release of the Summer 2008 quarterly snapshot release of MediaWiki. MediaWiki is now using a "continuous integration" development model with quarterly snapshot releases. The latest development code is always kept "ready to run", and in fact runs our own sites on Wikipedia.
Release branches will continue to receive security updates for about a year from first release, but nonessential bugfixes and feature developments will be made on the development trunk and appear in the next quarterly release.
Those wishing to use the latest code instead of a branch release can obtain it from source control.
Changes since 1.13.0rc2:
