Description

Reason: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AWS is marked as unmantained and rEAWS effectively displays that. Unless someone wishes to revive it, I propose to archive it.

Archive documentation on mediawiki.org (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AWS)
Remove from mediawiki/extensions / mediawiki/skins (along with in .gitmodules) -> https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/376053/
Remove tests in intregation/config ( zuul/layout.yaml ) -> https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/376054/
Remove from translatewiki ( groups/MediaWiki/mediawiki-extensions.txt / groups/MediaWiki/mediawiki-skins.txt ) -> https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/376055/
~~Archive Phabricator project for associated extension/skin~~ (there's none)
~~Edit Phabricator project description for associated extension/skin with a link to this ticket~~ (there's none)
Archive the extension's diffusion repository: rEAWS extension-AWS
Mark the repository read-only in Gerrit: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/admin/projects/mediawiki/extensions/AWS

Can not do the Diffusion repository :)

Reassigning to you :)

I'll take care of Diffusion once the gerrit repo is emptied and marked as readonly so they both display the same content. @demon may want to delete the github mirror over there too once this is done?

Regards.

Can we please reactivate the gerrit repo so I can empty it and add an OBSOLETE file as @Legoktm has suggested for this kind of tasks? Thank you.

Done

(I do think OBSOLETE files are silly though)

Also: let's write a goddamn tool for this. This process is far too manual.

+1 from me.

@demon Just a question, is it possible for non-admins to mark gerrit repositories as read-only/active?

Owners of a repository can.

@demon Thanks. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/376996/ empties the repo and adds an OBSOLETE file. When that is merged you can mark the repo as read-only again. Thanks.
