== Babel, CleanChanges and LocalisationUpdate ==
* Localisation updates only.

== CLDR ==
* Hebrew names for Cebuano and Norwegian are fixed.
* cldr converted to extension registration. Please update your
LocalSettings.php!

== Translate ==
* Old custom tokens were deprecated in favor of using regular "csrf"
(previously known as "edit") token. If you are using Translate WebAPIs
you might need to migrate.
* Special:Translations no longer shows PHP notices for pages with
invalid language codes
* Special:Translate now longer shows deprecation warnings about access
keys in the JavaScript console.
* Translate is now syntactically compatible with PHP7.
* Message group selector on Special:SearchTranslations no longer has
glitchy behavior after selecting a group.
* MessageIndex code was optimized. It now ignored messages not in
$wgTranslateMessageNamespaces. By default this should be fine, but if
you have translations in custom namespaces, check that they are
included.
* Pages with <languages /> now load faster with cold caches.
* MachineTranslationAid no longer throws uncaught exceptions with
default configuration that broke other translation aids.

== UniversalLanguageSelector ==
* ULS now uses extension registration and thus requires MediaWiki 1.25 or later
* Input methods should now work inside Visual Editor.

* Fonts:
** OpenDyslexic font updated to latest upstream.
** Akkadian font should work again.

* Input Methods:
* New input methods:
** Rodali (Assamese) layout.
** OdiScript (Oriya) layout.
** Yoruba layout.

* Updated input methods:
** Updated Oriya Lekhani layout.
** Digit fixes in Southern Kurdish layout.
** Minor fixes in Sinhala layout.
