 * You may have noticed new files on your wiki with "Wikia Visualization" in the file name. 

Yes, I noticed them pop up in both Special:UnusedFiles and Special:UncategorizedFiles. I deleted them immediately as they were duplicates of existing images with no edit summary. They re-appeared today with HTML in the summary instead of wiki markup.


 * The "number of videos on this wiki" figure was incorrect.

Seems like there's a lot of incorrect figures going around!

Incidentally, why are newly created wikis not using MediaWiki 1.19? Surely it would make more sense for them to use MediaWiki 1.19 immediately rather than using the old version for a few weeks until they're switched over. There would be fewer conversions to be done that way.
