[Bug 31515] Special:CentralNotice extension should be moved from metawiki to foundationwiki

Staff members do have the highest rights on that wiki, and control approval for access and removal of accounts. I also don't think it's a smart idea to open up access to more community members there, it still retains majority of the fundraising infrastructure and sensitive, important aspects of the foundation that should remain with limited access. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

It has been in use by the community for an year, I do agree with Philippe and MZ about concerns related to over-use and there does need to be some formalized process for approval on Meta itself, but moving it to foundation wiki would remove all the control community has for complete staff-control. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

Sitenotice, Watchlist notice, sure. But Centralnotice was originally intended for fundraising banners. While I agree with broadening its purview somewhat, it has (without doubt) been abused. pb -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

No consensus for this. Was there consensus for CentralNotice to be enabled on Meta-Wiki? If not, is consensus needed to move it to wikimediafoundation.org? I think the underlying issue here is CentralNotice over-use. This is a completely valid concern, but I don't think moving the extension from Meta-Wiki to wikimediafoundation.org will help. Most of the most obnoxious banners are implemented by people who have accounts in both places. As p858snake suggests, what you have here is a social problem, not a technical one. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

No consensus for this. CentralNotice is a community run project, If you have issues with how it is run, Take it up on meta: or one of the many mailing lists such as Foundation-L.

So you mean move it from a wiki where people can communicate and discuss the banners, to a wiki that normal users cant even register/edit to discuss the changes. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.
