@Aklapper We are fascilitating a number of liasons with IA, including https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T112881 and https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T115224. And they are also working on the video project, which TWL has not involvement in: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T99216 .

Once the project is set up I am going to add a filter which automatically includes mentions of Wayback Machine, archive.org and Internet Archive. Once the project is set up, several of their staff plan to subscribe to phabricator, and keep track of the board.

Sounds all good to me, thanks for coming up with this (though any use of "we" in sentences always makes me wonder who is "we" :P ).

Is there any link to a "Partnerships and activities" wikipage with more info to include in the project description?

*TWL is facilitating these liaisons; its largely handshake agreements right now on very low-commitment projects: there will be more formal documentation as it progresses.

@Aklapper & @Qgil is there an ETA for this? Do we need anyone else to give it a thumbs up/conversation? There are a couple of business activities I would love to get moving in the next 12 hours or so that would work better with it in place.

Brilliant! Thanks so much!

Basically: Only Title, I assume? Or also description (which might be way less performant)?

@Aklapper I was trying to do it with the whole of the description: internet archive is frequently a tool used in reference to other strategies for fixing materials on wiki. I want to be able to give our external partners at IA the opportunity to review all thats related to them, to get a sense of our technical interconnectedness. Sorry for not responding sooner, been a busy week.

I am not sure if this is ideal, as it would conflict with Datasets-Archiving, which deals with uploading datasets to the Internet Archive.

How? Any example?

If I create a task with the title "Upload elasticsearch dumps to the Internet Archive", then this project would have been added even though it's unrelated. Of course, we can always remove unrelated projects but I am sure it will be added back again when changes are made.

Clearly this has raised some concerns, @Sadads can you provide your input about this?

@Sadads: Can you please reply to T115306#1762192?

@Hydriz sorry for the slow ersponse, lost the email in a busy month: we are primarily creating this queue to allow us to keep Internet Archive informed about what the Wikimedia tech community is doing related to their services. We don't neccessarily expect the work to be tasked as part of the project,. I don't see why your item shouldn't be included in this queue.

@Sadads Good to hear about that. Thanks!

Then it should be a tag, not a component.

That Herald rule is triggered for any description linking to any web.archive.org URL. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T73326 - I don't think that's a great idea.

Indeed, this is quite confusing and distracting for people working on other projects (e.g. I just encountered this misclassification) . @Sadads , any thoughts on how to eliminate this kind of disruption without endangering this valuable partnership?

Are you sure the rule should be triggered by any archive.org link? I've some doubts for T133573 for example.

@DannyH is doing more of the relationship coordination at the moment -- so might have a better idea on how to prioritize. I think the problem is with Herald -- it automatically adds tasks to projects, even if you remove them. @Aklapper -- is there a way to have herald only add a task to a tag/project once and not readd them if its removed?

That should already be the case as it's "first time" and not "every time" (see all available options):

H99 created:

• Take these actions the first time this rule matches:
  • Add projects: Internet-Archive.

Do you have a recent example where it got re-added?
