Move questions about namespace 8 messages to Phabricator too
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Since we moved Wikimedia messages questions to Phabricator, most users got used to using it. Moreover, the main benefit in having MediaWiki support requests on translatewiki.net was the ability for Siebrand to go through them in batches, but AFAICT the WMF has since stopped systematically taking care of its own i18n issues.

From my export of https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Category:Open_support_requests_for_MediaWiki, the involved users are the following (99.5 % reports and 75 % reports covered):

$ grep ThreadAuthor translatewiki.net-20151204222443.xml | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | sed 's,<ThreadAuthor>,@,g' | sed 's,</ThreadAuthor>,,g'

Hmm? The questions will now be needed to reported here? Looks ways harder to me. Besides that could considerably highen number of tasks followed which makes using Phabricator harder.

It's not mandatory, just what the convenience URL button will point to.
