== Database schema ==
 
Postgres has its own schema file at maintenance/postgres/tables.sql.
 
The goal is to keep this file as close as possible to the canonical
schema at maintenance/tables.sql

the array calling protocol came about after MediaWiki

Initial value:

== Overview ==
 
Support for PostgreSQL has been available since version 1.7
of MediaWiki
