Based on the file header, it seems mediawiki uses a fork of tablesorter
or is a modified version of it, specifically for use with mediawiki.
mediawiki 1.19.1:

Can you get sortable tables to work with mediawiki in any other way?
Which part of Policy does the fix violate?
Would changing the name of the file (to something like
jquery.tablesorter.mediawiki.js) for use only with mediawiki solve the
policy issue?
The thing is that I need sortable tables to work, and I would like that
to happen without having to manually fix the package using upstream code
every time it is upgraded. Most users will not do that and just have a
broken mediawiki.
