MediaWiki upgrade
Updated the Wiki software to the most recent version (1.15.0).
Please let me know if you encounter problems or if you suddenly can do stuff that you couldn't do before etc. or the other way around.
Most dramagic change in my opinion from previous versions is the ability to rename images (I think I have to enable that with a config-option though) and the fact that new users are now listed in the logs.
Release notes for 1.14 and release notes for 1.15
PS: the previous server errors today were due to permissions not being set correctly. Yes, again.
SVG images
Hi, is there a possibility to upload svg graphics? I have a source svg here for Attributes.png 
, but I can't upload it through the normal upload dialog. Will the possibility of svg images possibly be added?

- Well, I haven't really looked into that at all, I'm sure it would be possible. What I'd like to know is whether all up to date/common browsers support this before going into it though.

- They don't need to. At least the mediawiki plugin/module/whatever used by wikipedia renders the SVG into png internally and just shows the png on the article page. See for example [1], the only drawback would probably be that the server has to render each svg image once and keep it in some buffer

- I see, found out how it's done etc. The server has the default converter installed, unfortunately it's also among the worst possible (slow and buggy, according to Mediawiki - talking about ImageMagick here). If you have something better at home, it might be best to convert at home for now and it should be possible to share the file by ways of an attachment to a forum post.

- Hmm, ok, will try to get a forum account now, and then cross-link the svg once I've posted it there. Thanks for trying!
