I am pretty sure that the short description will work in the same way as the
sort key does right now; thus we of course need to review the revision (in the
wikitext), but the description the page uses will come from the latest
revision, even if not reviewed

In my eyes, it is only reasonable that WMF would try to treat
communities/projects equally, even if indeed several years have passed. But
anyway, since I am the initiator on dewiki, I will not allow for a premature
termination to happen. Let’s continue the talks

Perfect, thank you! As for step two, we are discussing that separately and
might choose a different approach than English Wikipedia, but the procedure
will show. We will continue our talks and then move forward with voting on the
proposals soon.

Thanks! There is no need to hurry, the current discussion is one of a series
that went on for years, so we can wait a bit longer. I will not move on with
the voting for now, as it is only fair to first provide the community with as
much additional input

There is no point in re-discussing it; if a community wants to use it, they
should be able to. And what exactly is the use of a German-language short
description of a dewiki article for other projects?
