@Jdforrester-WMF Please link to relevant tasks when applicable. Thank you.

Question: shouldn't #GlobalUserPage and #AbuseFilter be renamed to #MediaWiki-extensions-AbuseFilter and #MediaWiki-extensions-GlobalUserPage and have the short names as alias instead of their primary names, as the vast majority of the extensions projects are named?

For the sake of consistency (and thus preventing exceptions in tools using project names), yes.

Linked document does not state anything like that explicitely. It only implies that.

@Danny_B: If you'd like to have additional rules for the sake of consistency, please propose such rules in a dedicated discussion. Thanks!

No, we're slowly moving all projects to drop the 'MediaWiki-extensions-' prefix as agreed when we set up the migration. Help ensuring everyone involved is happy with each renaming and then doing them appreciated!

Where is the agreement (and discussion)? I would like to see objective arguments, not only subjective feelings. Thank you.

(...) everyone involved is happy with each renaming (...)

That obviously can't happen...

@Danny_B: And I've renamed this back to lowercase capital letter because that's the actual name of the project.

Created Wikimedia-Developer-Summit umbrella project + 2017 subproject + Organization && Sessions milestone subsubprojects, as discussed in T142470.

5 CE Insights projects were created (T144532)

Can that name be any less descriptive?

I agree, that needs a rename

I agree, that needs a rename

@JeroenDeDauw since that's you project, could you think about that?

A WMDE- prefix would already help.

WMDE Fun Team works for me. It's not just my project of course, also @kai.nissen and @gabriel-wmde

Can that name be any less descriptive?

Are you yelly? :)

A WMDE- prefix would already help.

Renamed.

Renamed Developer-Wishlist to use "-" between the words, as per best practices documented in MediaWiki to allow liking the project elsewhere. Diff: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/manage/2435/#31731
