They're all 4-letter animal names that allow us to quickly see what "project" a task belongs to, from a workboard. If you look at the first column of our kanban board: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/analytics-kanban/ you'll see that there's a task for each animal. We try to order these "project" tasks top to bottom in order of decreasing priority.
This is just a somewhat silly thing we do and it helps us, but we don't document it or spread it because we don't expect anyone else to follow the convention. Hope that helps :) Dan On Thu, Feb 4, 2016 at 4:06 PM, John Mark Vandenberg <[email protected]> wrote: > What is the meaning of these suffixes added to Phabricator summaries. > > e.g.s > flea: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T121550 > hawk: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T125731 > dove: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T114884 > slug: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T118402 > lama: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T115590 > kudu: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T118310 > crow: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T123944 > oryx: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T76795 > lion: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T89924 > > They dont appear to be documented in an easy to find location > > > https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?search=oryx&title=Special%3ASearch&go=Go > > -- > John Vandenberg > > _______________________________________________ > Analytics mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/analytics >
