<p>
The PC version is a minor release. It fixes parsing issues for English, German and French wikis.
</p>
<p>
The Android version is a trivial release. It updates the list of Download Central wikis.

There are a handful of significant parser issues fixed in this release. For more detail, see the <a href="http://xowa.org/home/wiki/Change_log.html" id="xolnki_9" title="Change log">Change log</a>. In brief:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
2017-06 English Wikipedia no longer has script errors for "mwInit.lua:24 bad argument"
</li>
<li>
2017-05 French Wikivoyage no longer has broken navboxes
</li>
<li>
2017-05 French Wikisource no longer has script errors for "=Module:Header template:93"
</li>
<li>
2017-05 French Wikiversity no longer has script errors for "gplx.Err: bad argument"
</li>
<li>
2017-06 German Wikipedia no longer has missing Table of Contents
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Note that these errors only affected between .1% and 2% of pages. However, since even .1% means something like 5,000 pages in English Wikipedia, they needed to be fixed.
</p>

<span class="mw-headline" id="Next_release">Next release</span>

<p>
I'm still working on releasing more wikis with full-text search indexes. At the moment, Polish, Spanish, and Russian are next.
