Commit summary for MediaWiki.r111342:

Give a warning when people use $wgArticle. Add's a class that can be used to 
give warnings for other globals too.

See discussion on r111168.

Of course no one will see warning because trunk has $wgDeprecationReleaseLimit 
set to 1.17 by default
(<rant>have I mentioned how I don't like that variable. People enable warnings 
to be *warned* about
things. Making it so people won't get warned about things until a couple months 
after we've decided people
should stop using function/interface/etc defeats the purpose of having 
warnings</rant>)

p.s. Wasn't sure if this waranted something in the release notes, I don't think 
it does (It's just adding a warning)
but wasn't sure.

Aaron Schulz's comment:

<code>wfDeprecated( '$' . $this->mGlobal, $this->mVersion, false, 6 );</code>

These needs a code comment to explain the 6. Interesting that there *is* a 
comment to explain the 'm' prefixes.
