[OH-Dev] [issue576] Upgrade MediaWiki version

[brainwane]

New submission from brainwane <sumanah at wikimedia.org>:

The OpenHatch MediaWiki installation is running version 1.15.1.

https://openhatch.org/wiki/Special:Version

The current version is 1.17.0.  There are several security flaws that got fixed
between 1.15.1 and now, so OpenHatch should upgrade.

Also, you might be interested in spam filtering extensions for MediaWiki.  Take
a look at
<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Combating_spam> and
<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Anti-spam_features>.  Additionally: AbuseFilter
is an extension that tags and filters problematic edits. For more
