Another major aspect of MediaWiki is its internationalization its interface is available in more than 300 languages. Because Wikipedia is one of the world's largest websites, achieving scalability through multiple layers of caching and database replication has been a major concern for developers.

The software is optimized to efficiently handle large projects, which can have terabytes of content and hundreds of thousands of views per second. MediaWiki is written in the PHP programming language and stores all text content into a database. Its development has since then been coordinated by the Wikimedia Foundation. MediaWiki was originally developed by Magnus Manske and improved by Lee Daniel Crocker. It remains in use on Wikipedia and almost all other Wikimedia websites, including Wiktionary, Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata these sites continue to define a large part of the requirement set for MediaWiki. It was developed for use on Wikipedia in 2002, and given the name 'MediaWiki' in 2003.
