Upstream
- issue: 404 on Discussion creation when DiscussionTools installed
- issue: difficult to categorize multiple pages at once
- cat-a-lot exists and is enabled here as a gadget, but does not work on Special:AllPages which is where it would be most needed. Also the UI is pretty snarled up
- issue: Media search is a bit tricky, require care when naming
- issue: Instant commons not enabled since it overwhelms local media
- issue: excalidraw generated SVG upload fails
- "Found unsafe CSS in the style element of uploaded SVG file."
- issue: Mobile (MinervaNeue) does not allow editing on main page
- by design https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Ui9jkjungdin7alo (more of a gotcha)
- issue: Mobile (MinervaNeue) does not allow page creation
- option is there, just hidden https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Vi9o8iqrz2t4o2ge
- issue: Category pages need to be manually initialized
- There is an extension to create them automatically when first referenced https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Auto_Create_Category_Pages
