Worked on streamlining the SearchEngine API within the SemanticMediaWiki repository to ensure compatibility with MediaWiki 1.34. Focused on removing deprecated methods from both SearchEngine and ExtendedSearchEngine components, which reduced technical debt and simplified the API surface. Updated related unit tests and documentation to reflect these changes, maintaining feature parity while improving maintainability and test coverage. Utilized PHP and object-oriented programming principles throughout the process, emphasizing back end development best practices. This targeted API cleanup minimized upgrade risks and stabilized search functionality, supporting a smoother transition to newer MediaWiki versions and enhancing the long-term reliability of the codebase.
