Hi, ruwiki has 11 070 active users. I think that ruwiki should be able to gain more representative consensus. But I also think that this is technical stuff and most of ruwiki users won't be affected by this change. So I'm going to prepare patch and if nobody will give objection for it, it'll be deployed at May 30 in Morning SWAT window (15:00 - 16:00 UTC).
