Description

Pywikibot is dropping Python 2 support soon. The framework is ready to use with Python 3 including all the scripts inside the scripts folder.

All bot owners are invited to merge to Python 3 too. If you need any help for your own scripts to migrate, ask here for support.

If you need more time for migrating you can still use pywikibot with an older release tag.
The last stable release for Python 2 is marked with tag python2.
See https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/admin/projects/pywikibot/core,tags

Xqt added a parent task: T213287: Drop support of Python 2.7.

We (rTSTW tool-stewardbots) use some bots that still depend on Python 2. It looks none of us knows how to code on Python properly to migrate to Python 3. Any help would be appreciated (cc: @Rxy and @Melos). Related: T216018.

@MarcoAurelio: I guess this is not related to pwb framework where we prepare dropping Py2 support. Anyway we should help to migrate the steward scripts.
