@Addshore are you sure about Wikidata? Would like to know what @Lydia_Pintscher thinks.

I see no reason not to! :)

I'd like to hear the plan for further rollout and communication first.

@Lydia_Pintscher only thing fixed yet, is to roll it out to dewiki after a prior announcement.

Then I think it isn't useful to put it on testwikidata at this point.

@Addshore ok, let's leave Wikidata out then for now. Regarding the schedule, I think we should deploy it with the next possibility.

Well, it would probably be usefull to make sure that Wikibase and the RevisionSlider work well together.
Remember this is only on testwikidata and also only a betafeature which people would still have to actively turn on.

I will remove testwikidatawiki from the patch for now.

Add RevisionSlider to make-wmf-branch

@JanZerebecki I don't think any of what you have just added to the description under "sound as if they should be done before deploying to anything production"
At most they may block deployment to a 'real wiki' but again remember this is a beta feature.
Perhaps it would also make more sense to have them in a comment so they can be discussed rather than in the task description.

And if you check the tickets you'll find that T137964 and T133278 are already done.
@Lea_WMDE would not have requested that we move forward with this if T137202 blocked it
And T139296 as far as I know really shouldn't block it either.

Can't find the checklist right now. But I think as a beta feature needs at least a time frame for undeploy or graduation to a normal feature.

Well, it would probably be usefull to make sure that Wikibase and the RevisionSlider work well together.

I agree, it should be rolled out to all group0 wikis.

Could this be it https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Beta_Features#Creating_your_own ?

As the above comments explicitly request that it not be included on testwikidatawiki then it will not be.

T133278 still has open patches.

Yes patches that vaugly relate to the ticket, although are not specified in the description but are extra.
Also we are talking about tests here. Tests that pass and the only reason they are not being merged is due to Jenkins currently not being able to run some unrelated check using node relating to T139374

If they are done then why are they not closed?
If jenkins fails the extension then it should not be branched.

Next to time frame, there also needs to be a plan under what conditions it will either be undeployed or graduated.

TCB team closes tasks according to it's definition of done.

If jenkins fails the extension then it should not be branched.

In that case basically no extensions should be branched or deployed with the train as every extension with an npm job will currently fail.

The timeframe for having RevisionSlider deployed is the end of Q3 as per the roadmap.
It will be deployed to dewiki as a beta feature a couple of weeks after landing on testwiki.
If it is generally accepted by dewiki it would be graduated, if it is not then it would not.

I don't think that any of the mentioned tasks are in any way blockers for having the extension on test wikis.

• I can't see why T139296 should be a blocker.
• T137964 is done.
• T133278 is done.
• T137202 is in no way a blocker.

For the time plan of the RevisionSlider extension, I think @Lea_WMDE and @Bmueller can give a more detailed overview as well as telling something about the criteria of graduating or undeploying the extension. @JanZerebecki, could you point us to the page where this plan and criteria should be written/communicated or at least to the page where it says that this is a hard requirement for deploying the beat-feature on test wikis.
Also it would be great if you could revisit and remove your -2 on https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/296753/ and https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/297412/ so we can move on here.

Just tested it on beta wikidata, seems to work.
"Needing to move on" nor a time plan is a reason for overriding the requirements for deployment.

As the above comments explicitly request that it not be included on testwikidatawiki then it will not be.

I did not find such an explicit request.

Yes please, I had an extensive discussion with Lea explaining this part.

Concerning the deployment plan: We are planning to deploy the RevisionSlider on de-wiki and most probably also a left-to-right language wikipedia (arabic and/or hebrew) first to gather feedback both from a left-to-right and a right-to-left language wiki. If that goes well, we plan to enable the RevisionSlider as a beta feature on all wiki projects. Based on the feedback we get, we will decide by December the latest if this is going to be a real feature or undeployed.

I will remove testwikidatawiki from the patch for now.

Ok thanks! I think it is ok to go in the second round then.

That still doesn't read to me that way.

I missed that.

Anyway fine as is for now.
