Stringoptional
Needs update.phpneeds-updatephp

"Yes" : indicates that the extension requires a database table schema change or a similar action, before the MediaWiki can run. It is a common pitfall: your MediaWiki will stall, if you forgot to run update.php - if the extension requires it. "No" : should be set as a value since this assures that the extension does not need update.php to be run and thus avoids uncertainty.

Example
Yes
Booleanoptional
