What I'd do is: * Update FlaggedRevs_alpha to the desired state and check it on the labs wikis * Switch wikis from FlaggedRevs to FlaggedRevs_alpha * The old FlaggedRevs dir now sits around not being used. Leave it like this for a while so we can easily switch wikis back to it * After some time, update FlaggedRevs to be identical to FlaggedRevs_alpha, and switch the wikis back, so we don't drag this _alpha thing along forever.
The rationale behind this is that FlaggedRevs is a known-good state more so than FlaggedRevs_alpha. Roan Kattouw (Catrope) _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
