Files in this repository are almost a mirror of the Wikimedia Foundation
cluster configuration. Omitted files include passwords and security measures.

dblists/
 List of wiki databases.
 For labs-only dblists, add "-labs" suffix before the file extension.

errorpages/
 Central management of error pages used by app servers at the PHP or Apache level.

wikiversions.json, wikiversions.php
wikiversions-labs.json, wikiversions-labs.php
 Let us associate a database with a specific copy of MediaWiki (generally a
 branch). The .php file is updated by editing wikiversions.json first and then
 running multiversion/updateWikiversions.

 determine which app servers are available to use as X-Wikimedia-Debug
 backends. See <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/X-Wikimedia-Debug>.

 favicons, CentralAuth SUL icons and more.
