Description

As per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Version_lifecycle, MW 1.41 is EOL at the end of December 2024

As per the MediaWiki version lifecycle[1], I would like to announce the formal end of life (EOL) of MediaWiki 1.41 as of Tuesday December 31, 2024.

1.41.5 is expected to be the last release for this branch.

This means that MediaWiki 1.41 will no longer receive maintenance or security backports. It is therefore strongly discouraged that you continue to use it.

It is recommended to upgrade either to MediaWiki 1.42, which will be supported until June 2025 or to the next LTS, 1.43 (due to be released soon), which will be supported until at least December 2027.

Thanks!
