Why aren’t they upgrading to the most recent version of MediaWiki? Wikia uses a heavily modified version of MediaWiki, so it takes a lot of rewriting whenever they do upgrade, which isn't often (I think the last one was in 2012, they went from 1.16 to 1.19). They do backport some features from the newer versions though.
