What do you think about setting a Phabricator bot to add pywikibot-core project to all new pywikibot-script/module/class tasks automatically? (except the pywikibot-compat of course)
The same works for some subprojects of MediaWiki's VisualEditor already, and could be helpful with sorting incoming tasks.

Of wat I understood, you want to set a new Herald rule that add Pywikibot tag for tasks that has Pywikibot-redirect.py or other script tag ?
I agree with this.
@Framawiki Exactly!
PS: Maybe we should discuss if there are some exceptions – pywikibot-* projects excluded from the proposed Herald rule
I believe Phabricator also allows some kind of sub-project management, as well as "umbrella" projects. Just another possibility to explore.
Will the tasks of a sub-project (e.g. Pywikibot-Scripts ) also automatically appear on the parent project workboard (Pywikibot)?
So the options are:
@MarcoAurelio Exactly. You can see some links with details from @Aklapper above. I'm trying to find out some advantages or disadvantages of both approaches. Does anybody see some?
If we convert Pywikibot to a subproject, nobody will be able to just be a member of that project as parent projects inherit their membership from subprojects. There's a nice table at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Phabricator/Project_management#Parent_Projects.2C_Subprojects_and_Milestones that can be helpful to decide.
My proposal:
Thanks.
I think this is a good idea to combine both approaches. I would maybe make a little modifications to your idea:
Sorry, I've forgot about this task. I'm okay with your proposal @Dvorapa If no concerns are raised I think we can do as you suggest.
What does "move" mean? Rename? Or creating subprojects under a yet-to-create Pywikibot-Scripts parent project which is separate from Pywikibot?
- Herald rule to add Pywikibot to all tasks about scripts running in core and to all tasks in Pywikibot-Wikidata, Pywikibot-Commons, -other-non-scripts
Is "scripts running in core" every script that is not under Pywikibot-Scripts, or something else? What is an example for -other-non-scripts?
