Interwiki link existence isn't checked or tracked. File stuff isn't a
problem (since ptwikimedia wasn't a central repo & existed prior to
GlobalUsage being a thing). Cross-wiki notifications didn't exist either.
Banners? Doesn't make sense. Pre-elasticsearch too so no conflicts.

The *only* thing I can think of that could cause a problem is external
storage.

We should stop being paranoid and just try it :)

  If pt2.wikimedia should be used in last resource, can't the current db
content be exported, and the db cleaned to be used again like sugested
before? Exported content could be imported to a new db, lets say,
pt.wikimedia.org_old. Is this feasible?

  Llegoktm already pointed that there are no entries on CentralAuth, since
the wiki was shut down on 2011 / 2012, is there any other places to check?

or something else). Is there anything we from Wikimedia Portugal can do or

I think reusing the "ptwikimedia" db name would be ideal. My only
concern with doing so is that it might be in databases somewhere, but I
checked CentralAuth and there are no ptwikimedia entries, so at least
that will be fine.

yes, it should be a bit simpler because it is inactive.

but AIUI, the big hurdle is not in renaming the DB but in renaming the

But there's not a wiki running there, just an old database. I imagine we

The move off-cluster predates RESTBase and Elasticsearch so no worries

If you want this, I hope the users will have the patience to wait for
when the renaming wikis bug will be solved in 2034.

Or, you know, we can create *now* a new wiki with a new name that most
users will not notice (it will not affect the domain name,
pt.wikimedia.org).

Hello,

The ptwikimedia database being from 2012, I don't think there is much
point in attempting to upgrade its schema, much less attempting to merge
in the external db in.

Given most of the useful data/history has been exported, I would suggest
to rename on WMF cluster the ptwikimedia DB to something like
ptwikimedia_old or even just archive a dump of it and drop it.

Then create a new ptwikimedia and import the external db there.


I am an idealist, but I am afraid introducing a scheme like
2 is asking for various exceptions to be added in
various code and will cause a nasty technical debt down the road.

Assuming there's no easy way to merge the databases, we are fine with
dropping the old db. I believe most content was imported to the current
wiki at the time of the migration, see
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T25537. An xml dump was used, not an SQL
one, so I suppose stuff like logs may not have been preserved, but in any
case it's not critical that we preserve all that historical info. I mean,
it would certainly be nice, but we can live without it.

Or we could use the pt2wikimedia, as that would allow future archeologists
to recover the data from the beginning of the wiki :) Either option is fine.

Re: [Wikitech-l] pt.wikimedia.org - database naming

[This, that and the other]

Why not just delete the old ptwikimedia site and put the new one in its place, 
using the same dbname?


The old wiki is inaccessible, since pt.wikimedia.org redirects offsite, so it's 
unclear if the old DB even needs to be preserved. And presumably any 
configuration bits that refer to ptwikimedia will still be relevant to the new 
site.


If for some reason that is not feasible, I guess pt2wikimedia is acceptable, 
though only as a last resort. As I've said before, there really needs to be a 
better way to rename wikis without wasting hours of everyone's time...

Hi all,

A request has come up (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T126832) to
re-create pt.wikimedia.org on the wikimedia cluster. Unfortunately it was
previously hosted there and so the 'ptwikimedia' database name is already
taken.
Since database renaming does not really appear to be an option, does anyone
have any objections to using 'pt2wikimedia' (or similar, suggestions
welcome) instead for the new wiki? I know this doesn't fit the existing
pattern so I'm unsure about just going ahead without asking for input from
a wider audience.

[Wikitech-l] pt.wikimedia.org - database naming

[Alex Monk]

Hi all,

A request has come up (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T126832) to
re-create pt.wikimedia.org on the wikimedia cluster. Unfortunately it was
previously hosted there and so the 'ptwikimedia' database name is already
taken.
Since database renaming does not really appear to be an option, does anyone
have any objections to using 'pt2wikimedia' (or similar, suggestions
welcome) instead for the new wiki? I know this doesn't fit the existing
pattern so I'm unsure about just going ahead without asking for input from
a wider audience.

Alex
