MediaWiki is wiki software, released under the GPL, that is used by Wikimedia projects as well as other websites. It is an implementation of a wiki, a content pool that anyone can freely edit. It is developed using Phabricator, our instance of Phacility's Phabricator.
MediaWiki 1.42.3 is the latest stable version, and is recommended for third-party users. Those running their own servers should upgrade for security reasons. Special:Version shows what version a site is running. You can play around in the local Sandbox to see this version in action.
MediaWiki 1.42.3 is available for download from MediaWiki.org, a site that is also responsible for the documentation of the software. MediaWiki 1.44.0-wmf.4 (a8dd895) is currently running on all Wikimedia sites. Third-party users should not run the alpha/beta versions of MediaWiki on publicly accessible servers.

Database dump
For downloadable dumps of Wikipedia's article database, see Wikipedia:Database download. For a description of the database format and fields, see database layout.
To create your own dump of a local MediaWiki site, you can use the dumpBackup.php script found in the maintenance directory of your MediaWiki installation tree.
An example invocation to a full backup might look like:
php maintenance/dumpBackup.php --full > full.xml
Command line options for dumpBackup.php are explained by running it with no parameters, i.e.
php maintenance/dumpBackup.php
However, there are some extra undocumented options in its source code.
