Hi @Mattho69. For configuration change, local consensus is required according to 'Requesting wiki configuration changes'. Even if the community is small, an announcement of proposed changes is welcomed.
Could you bring up the matter on the Village pump page of your wiki (or any other appropriate place) to confirm that this change is wanted by the community, and paste the link to that discussion here?

@Jdlrobson Does the reading team agree for such deployment?

fr.wikinews has a tech sawwy community, and good for reporting issues.

Fine with me and community. We could do with more testers :)

We discussed the issue on #wikimedia-operations, @Jdlrobson agrees.
