 === Configuration changes in 1.26 ===
+* $wgEnableParserCache was deprecated, set $wgParserCacheType to CACHE_NONE
+  instead if you want to disable the parser cache.
 
 === New features in 1.26 ===
+* Change tags can now be hidden in the interface by disabling the associated
+  "tag-<id>" interface message.
+* ':' (colon) is now invalid in usernames for new accounts. Existing accounts
+  are not affected.
+* Added a new hook, 'LogException', to log exceptions in nonstandard ways.
 
 ==== External libraries ====
 
 === Bug fixes in 1.26 ===
+* (bug 51283) load.php sometimes sends 304 response without full headers
 
 === Action API changes in 1.26 ===
+* API action=query&list=tags: The displayname can now be boolean false if the
+  tag is meant to be hidden from user interfaces.
+* action=import no longer allows both the namespace= and rootpage= parameters
+  to be set. If they are both set, the value of rootpage= will be ignored.
+* prop=revision output in enum mode is now sorted by timestamp rather than
+  revision ID. This usually won't make any difference.

 === Other changes in 1.26 ===
+* ChangeTags::tagDescription() will return false if the interface message
+  for the tag is disabled.
+* Added PageHistoryPager::doBatchLookups hook.
+* Added ParserCacheSaveComplete to ParserCache
+* supportsDirectEditing and supportsDirectApiEditing methods added to
+  ContentHandler, to provide a way for ApiEditPage and EditPage to check
+  if direct editing of content is allowed. These methods return false,
+  by default for the ContentHandler base class and true for TextContentHandler
+  and it's derivative classes (everything in core). For Content types that
+  do not support direct editing, an alternative mechanism should be provided
+  for editing, such as action overrides or specific api modules.
+* mediaWiki.confirmCloseWindow now returns an object of functions, instead of
+  one function. The callback can't be called directly any more. The callback
+  function is replaced with confirmCloseWindow.release().
+* Removed maintenance script deleteImageMemcached.php.
+* MWFunction::newObj() was removed (deprecated in 1.25).
+  ObjectFactory::getObjectFromSpec() should be used instead.
+* The parser will no longer randomize the string it uses to mark the place of
+  items that were stripped during parsing. It will use a fixed string instead.
+  This causes the parser to re-use the regular expressions it uses to search
+  and replace markers rather than generate novel expressions on each parse.
+  Re-using regular expressions will improve performance on HHVM and the
+  forthcoming PHP 7. The interfaces changes accompanying this change are:
+  - Parser::getRandomString() and Parser::uniqPrefix() have been deprecated.
+  - The $uniq_prefix argument for Parser::extractTagsAndParams() and the
+    $prefix argument for StripState::_construct() are deprecated and their
+    value is ignored.
