As part of T142165, @yuvipanda disabled https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:NovaInstance and https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:NovaSecurityGroup, latter enabling the former again. AFAIUI, T142165 has been completely resolved and https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:NovaSecurityGroup can be enabled again as well.
So:
// For https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T142165
$(function() {
function disableSecurityGroups() {
$('a[href="/wiki/Special:NovaSecurityGroup"]').click(function() { alert("Security Group creation disabled temporarily, see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T142165 for details"); return false; });
if (mw.config.get('wgPageName') === 'Special:NovaSecurityGroup' ) {
$('#content').html('<h3>Security group manipulation temporarily disabled, see <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T142165">link for details</a></h3>');
}
}
function disableInstanceCreation() {
//$('a[href="/wiki/Special:NovaInstance"]').click(function() { alert("Instance creation disabled temporarily, see link for details"); return false; });
if (mw.config.get('wgPageName') === 'Special:NovaInstance' ) {
$('#mw-content-text h3 span a[title="Special:NovaInstance"]').html('New instance creation disabled').attr('href', 'https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T142165');
}
}
disableSecurityGroups();
});should be removed from https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js. (NB: I recommend Horizon for managing security groups; this task is just about removing bit rot, not making a statement.)
