It requires MediaWiki v1.27 or newer.

This wording seems to suggest that this wasn't the case with 0.13. Maybe we could either remove this sentence, or change its start to, for example, "Like 0.13, this version requires...". WDYT?

ps - I had never seen "commentary" used in the context of code comments. It's pretty nice, I'm going to start using it!

Agreed, "Since v0.13.0 Wikimate requires..." would be clearer.

Uhm, what are you referring to?

From the release summary in this PR's opening comment:

... and improves PHPDoc commentary and USAGE.md.

Ah, the word itself. Haha, okay. :smile:

Release tagged, Packagist and MediaWiki library list updated.

Packagist and MediaWiki library list updated.

I guess we should add those steps to the instructions too?

Also, I just noticed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:PHP_bot_framework_table, which doesn't need to be updated with every release, but could be updated to include you as a maintainer, and soon to tick the "Exclusion compliant" box :)

I suppose that's sensible.

Added. Ticking that box is post-1.0 in the current roadmap though.
