I have closed the ticket that relates to the DBAs (add the replication filters and restart MariaDB on the sanitarium hosts).
Going to remove the DBA tag from this task as our part is done, but I will remain subscribed as once the wiki is created, we'd need to double check the labs hosts to make sure nothing is actually being replicated.

That is exactly what DBA (done) column was created for (DBA work is done, but ticket cannot be closed yet) :-)
Our part was done at: T174385 that is why I removed the project tag from this specific one, but remained subscribed for future checking
Hey - just wondering what the status is here. Is there anything we can do to push this along?

[operations/dns@master] add mobile domain for electomwikimedia
@jrbs: re: patches rebasing: git review -d <number of gerrit patch>; git rebase -i origin/master; then if it fails "git rebase --continue" to see in which file the conflict is; manually edit the file to remove the conflict, git rebase --continue; git review

I'd highly advise against putting it in SWAT, in fact, I think it'd be point blank forbidden. Most deployers probably won't feel comfortable creating a wiki, and even less so in a short window in which other stuff is likely to be deployed too
Reedy, could you pretty please look for a nice open window to deploy this new wiki in? *fluttery eyes*
(I'll get it off the SWAT schedule)
There is hi.wiktionary to create soon, I'll see next week to plan a window for it, and if so, I'll create electcomwiki at the same time.
[ Raising priority as this is ready to create and needed. ]
I'm sorry. I have no real idea how to reach devs for deployment here. This wiki would be really useful to have right now so the election committee can discuss things related to the next FDC election cycle.
I feel like I can't just ping someone at random, right? Is there a process for getting this slated for deployment?
Bleugh. I'm sorry. Not been a great time for me personally over the last few weeks. I *will* get this done next week.

Wiki is created, but have not created any accounts for anyone as requested. I had created one for myself to just sanity check a few things. Feel free to block it in the near future when the wiki starts being used (though, it's useful to keep around for a little while for any teething issues)
As @jrbs and @Jalexander both have shell access, they can both run mwscript createAndPromote.php --wiki=electcomwiki --sysop --bureaucrat <username> <password> to create their accounts... Probably easiest for them to communicate with @KTC to create hers. Obviously use a crappy password on the command line, then immediately log in and change it. Set an email address. Enable 2FA then too if you want.
VisualEditor is currently slightly broken, but will be sorted when I get the patch for parsoid made and deployed. Just waiting on a load of stuff to install on my vagrant vm, and I'll get that patch out and on here...
Just to confirm: the filtering works fine, the wiki isn't on labs.
