Re: [Wikitech-l] Campaigns extension / ServerSideAccountCreation log - does anyone still use it?

[Federico Leva (Nemo)]

I think it's easier to answer this question by checking the 
corresponding data.


WMIT used this recently (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T123059 ; I 
don't know if there will be more) but most potential users probably 
don't know about the possibility (which was never really documented).

[Wikitech-l] Campaigns extension / ServerSideAccountCreation log - does anyone still use it?

[Brad Jorsch (Anomie)]

Question 1: Would anyone care if we kill the "loginCTA" campaign, which
tracks when people use the link at the bottom of Special:UserLogin to get
to the account creation page?

Question 2: Would anyone care if we remove the extension entirely from
Wikimedia wikis? Wikiapiary seems to show only one user outside of
Wikimedia.

Background: The extension needs a rewrite for AuthManager, and in
particular the "loginCTA" campaign will be a bit of a pain to keep working.
If someone is making use of the extension that's fine, but if not we may as
well not continue to spend development resources on it.

Thanks for your offer, Niklas! I know the team is now talking to you about
this, and your help is much appreciated. :-)

Thanks for the suggestion. I filed T136344

Strainu, the policy is described on Meta 
(https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Project_portals ), where the management 
of the portals belongs.

Hi,

I have two questions on this:

1. Why do these need to be updated manually?
2. What's the order in which you present the top ten wikis? I remember this
has been responded to before, but I can't find the link.

Thanks,
  Strainu

FYI there were usually around 50 updates per year on the wiki.

I concentrated on Git docs on mediawiki.org and pretty much ignored
content on wikitech.wikimedia.org.

I'm not a Git pro at all so if there seems to be consensus, please
anyone be bold and edit to improve our contribution guidelines.

Thank you in advance!

 That's not true, It's a project I plan to work on shortly (just need
 to finish a few other things first).

 And it's not a simple case of just hitting delete on everything.

Re: [Wikitech-l] FW: File with an unknown copyright status on MediaWiki.org

[Joaquin Oltra Hernandez]

I'm trying to fix the ones I've uploaded, but the {{Mediawiki screenshot}}
template is not in mediawiki.org.

Is just adding a license like {{cc-by-sa-4.0}} enough?
