Victorbarbu added a comment to T61113: Remove methods in MW core deprecated since MW 1.25 or earlier.

Is code marked with deprecated, use ... instead considered good to remove?

Victorbarbu added a comment to T117740: Convert non-JS version of Special:RecentChanges to HTMLForm (OOUI or Codex).

Currently Jenkins is complaining about the rcdays undefined index in $preferences ($preferences being the array holding the preferences generated by Preferences.php and extensions), when the Setup.php script is run. This is normal, because I changed the rcdays to rcmaxage so as to allow more time values (since this is expressed in seconds).

I thought I would be a good idea because adding a new type to the already existing code is pretty hard already. If you remember my task in Google Code-in, when I implemented a new parameter type, it was pretty ambiguous where error reporting, type checking etc. would come.
