Deprecate $wgSharedDB in response to it accidentally being used in
Wikidata. It was always an ugly hack.
Change-Id: I68f3bfe7afc49a49cd310b66dc03cf52507d3e58
* $wgSharedTables may be customized with a list of tables to share in the shared
* datbase. However it is advised to limit what tables you do share as many of
* MediaWiki's tables may have side effects if you try to share them.
- * EXPERIMENTAL
*
* $wgSharedPrefix is the table prefix for the shared database. It defaults to
* $wgDBprefix.
+ *
+ * @deprecated In new code, use the $wiki parameter to wfGetLB() to access
+ * remote databases. Using wfGetLB() allows the shared database to reside on
+ * separate servers to the wiki's own database, with suitable configuration
+ * of $wgLBFactoryConf.
