Event Timeline

Hi, just a heads-up, we might want to delay re-enabling the rights a little longer beyond the 28th. The script will possibly run longer than anticipated. I'll keep you posted on the progress. Thanks.

It is November 30, 2016; are we good to go to reopen the gates?

Okay, I think we can enable renames. The script will need some modifications. I'll schedule another window in the near future to run it again. For now, let the renaming begin!

Okay. I'll schedule a re-enabling patch for today's EU SWAT window.

If I understand it properly, that is blocked on some maintenance script to complete. Namely T148242: Fully populate local_user_id and global_user_id fields in production. Looks like it hasn't completed yet :(

Correct. See T148242#2835963 The best way forward would be to modify the script to be able to:

  • Run on a given wiki
  • Be able to exclude users in the global rename queue to avoid conflicts
  • Exclude non-SUL wikis from migration list

I think it makes sense to schedule another time slot next week perhaps after making the above changes. What do you think?
