Yes, we can run my deleteEqualMessages.php again, for all wikis.
It does require byte equivalence. And in my experience that means it almost
never does what you want. People will copy it slightly differently due to
spacing or with less generic syntax (eg Wikipedia: vs Project), or someone
will

Thank you. So, you are talking about avoiding any possibility to fix errors
in existing messages, nevermind where. I am not sure the communities will
be happy...

Updates from translatewiki will be put on pause. You can continue to update
translations at translatewiki, but they won't show up on Wikimedia wikis
until the current issues are sorted out.
In order to avoid things getting out of sync with translatewiki, we would
like to ask that you avoid
N3 Trizek just said that translatewiki will work for existing messages. I

Sure, but *existing* messages are fixed all the time, if you want it or
not. And you should choose - fix them locally, and then make it global
after the translatewiki will return, or fix the in translatewiki, and it
will not work at all.

As I understand, nothing terrible will happen if you add new messages to
en.json. But new translations will not be added, so any new interfaces
will be in English for everyone, which is a poor experience.
