I wonder if we can actually start somewhere like with Fandom's Dev Wiki. Almost the entire contents of that wiki should be compatible with Wikimedia's content license. If we can build a template and module repository that Wikimedia (and other projects) can use, then we can open the door to global templates. It would allow for templates ported to be deletable unless if they are highly used on a project.

For those interested in implementing this, there is code for a Gadget Manager implementation already, and can be found in the RL2 branch of the mediawiki/extensions/Gadgets repo. This is from the 2011 prototype that @Catrope and myself worked on at the time.

It is however based on the deprecated jQuery UI. I suggest migrating it to HTMLForm instead.

• Gadgetmanager wise, I don't see many problems.
  • It's all jQuery UI, which we are trying to get rid off.. but it is fairly self contained, so I think that's ok for now, but is there a ticket for that ?

With MultiGadgetRepo, adoption will be gradual with users having full autonomy at the individual gadget level. This means adopting a JSON gadget is as easy as creating the appropiate page (JSON will have precedence over the entry from the legacy definition page). And switching back would involve deleting or moving said page, or changing its content model, so as to not be loaded.

I just undid all reviews by WizardGamer775 (currently 747 edits and 3 months old) directly in the database due to a significant number of them being inaccurate (35%) and/or not having the proper actions taken (20%).

Done in the new CopyPatrol (hopefully to be released later this week). There's also "revdel" link for those with the requisite user rights.

We now query the database directly.

CopyPatrol has long had i18n support. This task is about the Copyvios tool.

Any recent progress on this? I recently came back from a hiatus, and I'm still having to manually regenerate a list of all a project's pages for project change patrol purposes. It would be nice to no longer have to do that.

If the community wants this and the WMF works out access to other provider APIs, then this could be reopened.

This is an uninteligible, non-actionable request filed by a long-inactive user. There are plenty of other tasks open in the task tree or elsewhere about global templates/modules. Boldly declining.

I regularly (most days in March) see errors where CopyPatrol reports a 500 error for a few minutes at a time.

I'm not sure if this is still a problem. Boldly closing, anyone please re-open if you feel this still needs attention.

IRC isn't being used currently.

See Synchronizer for a semi-automated tool for solving or mitigating this issue.

Looks like Community-Tech never got around to investigate this, thus declining this task to reflect reality.
