The Program Committee for the Architecture Summit has published a proposed

I think we can draw some inspiration from Mozilla's use of Bugzilla and
particular the format they are encourage users when submitting a bugreport:
1) Steps to reproduce
2) Expected result
3) Actual result
4) Reproducible (by bugreporter): always / sometimes
5) Version information, extensions

Dear James, Amir and fellow wikimedia devs,
I understand your concern and I am not suggesting that we should force a
user to enter all Bugzilla fields but add those 5 questions as a
guideline

For the last months I have been going through Bugzilla and what strikes me
is that we are not using it as efficiently as other communities do. In
particular, there is little follow up to reported problems (as Leo mentioned
as well). On the short term, I think we can have a bugathon to clean up
I think one way that non technical people can help is by trying to replicate
bugs, if they follow the steps as described in the bugreport Do you get the
same malfunction or not. That would be a great help as it weeds out invalid
bugreports

Dear dev's,
I am wondering whether the Mediawiki db contains a foreignkey
relationship between a main namespace article and the associated talk
page (if present).
Having this information would greatly simplify analytic projects to
monitor editor behaviour and understanding revert behaviour
Yes, manually matching is fairly simple but in the worst case you need
to iterate over n-1 talk pages (where n is the total number of talk
pages of a Wikipedia) to find the talk page that belongs to a user
page when using the dump files. Hence, if the dump file would contain
for each article a tag
The same error is given for:
* Russian
* Japanese
* Italian
* Arabic (ar is the language code)
Best,
Diederik

To continue the discussion on how to improve the performance, would it be
possible to distribute the dumps as a 7z / gz / other format archive containing

Which dump file is offered in smaller sub files?
