Entwicklungsrichtlinien
This page documents an official Wikimedia development policy. There is no current mechanism to make changes, as the TechCom RFC process is defunct. |
Die Entwicklungsrichtlinien legen fest, wie Wikimedia-Software entwickelt und gewartet wird. Dies umfasst den MediaWiki-Kern, die angebundenen Skins und Erweiterungen, sowie weitere Skins und Erweiterungen, die auf Wikimedia-Foundation-Wikis ausgerollt sind.
High-level
All Wikimedia engineering endeavors are guided by the Architecture principles.
Creation of new services that are external to MediaWiki, should follow the Services policy
Runtime support
Changes to PHP support in MediaWiki core or components bundled with official MediaWiki releases, must follow the Unterstützungsrichtlinie für PHP.
Code review
Privileged Gerrit users must follow the Gerrit privilege policy when exercising their +2 rights.
Implementation policies
Changes to MediaWiki core that have impact on extensions must follow the Stable interface policy.
Database queries and schema changes must follow the MediaWiki-Datenbankrichtlinie.
PHP's built in serialization mechanism (the serialize() and unserialize() functions) should not be used for data stored (or read from) outside of the current process (RFC T161647).
