Description Ryan Kaldari 2014-08-11 07:18:39 UTC
jQuery 1.9 uses deprecated jQuery functions such as andSelf() (see bug 69350). We should upgrade it to 1.11, the current version.
Comment 1 Ryan Kaldari 2014-08-11 07:19:40 UTC
That should say "jQuery UI 1.9...". Sorry.
Comment 2 Krinkle 2014-08-25 12:03:33 UTC
Lowering priority. jQuery UI 1.9 is considered an LTS, and upgrading to 1.10 or 1.11 will be a major and breaking change since until recently we were on jQuery UI 1.8, and 1.9 introduced a brand new API (keeping support for the UI 1.8 API, but 1.10 drops support for this). There's no reason for us to upgrade right now, and certainly before we've finished the previous migration cycle of jQuery core upgrade and MediaWiki JS deprecations.

This is somewhat incorrect. Though andSelf is indeed deprecated, there are no plans by jQuery to remove it. It isn't part of the rest of jQuery Migrate and was not removed in jQuery core 1.8. In fact it still exists in the latest jQuery 1.11 and jQuery 2.x and thus jQuery UI continues to use it so that they don't have to feature-test andSelf/addBack for old versions.
