Textpattern documentation Mediawiki - bump to latest version?

The docs wiki is currently running Mediawiki 1.17.0, which is subject to a number of exploits. The current version (1.21.3) doesn’t appear to have any known vulnerabilities, at least not on CVE.

Propose a version bump to latest. This may also help in the fix for the zero-byte PDF bug – assuming the more recent version of PdfBook plays nicely.

Re: Textpattern documentation Mediawiki - bump to latest version?

We were discussing the wiki earlier today actually.

Once the forum redesign is up (it’s currently in testing on our staging server, so won’t be long now), I’ll be looking at the next stage of our website rebuilds, including the documentation site itself. I’m looking at alternatives to using a wiki though, as there are probably better solutions to collaborative documentation writing nowadays.

And Destry has pointed out to me, it would also be a good time to revisit and rewrite a lot of the documentation.

I want the documentation to be reusable and portable for other tasks (such as easily compiling into a book, for example).
