Description

This is the only wiki in Beta Cluster that does not exist in production. It's purpose seems to be a mix between Meta-Wiki and a generic landing page for the Beta Cluster.

I'd propose that:

  • All roles that apply to deploymentwiki in Beta Cluster that are fulfilled by metawiki in production, be moved to Beta Cluster's metawiki.
  • The landing page (which seems overkill to have an entire wiki for) be merged with the main page of another Beta Cluster wiki (e.g. metawiki or enwiki).
  • Update the https://beta.wmflabs.org redirect to no longer point at https://deployment.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/.

Rationale:

Keeping the InitialiseSettings-labs and CommonSettings-labs files in wmf-config as simple and short as possible. There are currently two kinds of overrides that are more or less permanently different between Beta and Prod due to the existence of deploymentwiki:

  1. Settings that point to metawiki in prod but need to point to deploymentwiki. (T188874, T123936, etc.). Continues diverge with every Meta-related functionality added to or changed in prod. Effectively technical debt that will require on-going care to keep correct and catch issues.
  1. Settings for LanguageCode, SiteName and other stuff that exists only for this wiki because there is no prod equivalent.

All of the Spanish wikis, for example. As far as I know they were created for some ContentTranslation testing and serve no purpose now? I'm sure we can clear up some more, but maybe we can discuss that in a different ticket.

Looking thru the config files there are two things that need to be moved from deploymentwiki to metawiki: CentralAuth management and global AbuseFilters. (CentralNotice is already at metawiki)

CentralAuth only needs reverting T123936 and changing documentation.

We currently have 14 enabled global filters which need to be moved over. I'm not sure how AF behaves when wmAbuseFilterCentralDB is changed.

I've also copied over and modified the main page from deploymentwiki to metawiki. Feel free to improve it at https://meta.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/User:Majavah/T198673 and the future main page for deploymentwiki at https://deployment.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/User:Majavah/T198673.

Global blocks and abuse filters were moved to metawiki earlier today. I guess the only thing left is to cleanup unused user rights and close down the wiki (not sure if that's even possible T115584).

There is a banner to this task on deploymentwiki so let's hope people will scream if I've broken anything important.

Can you also remove members from all groups in deploymentwiki (T198673)? This includes everything that is available in the interface to modify plus at least autopatrolled, flood and translationadmin which can't be modified via Special:UserRights as they do not exist there.

I'll do what I can via the interface, and the rest should be done as part of T198673 or a subtask

I've emptied all user groups on deploymentwiki via the interfaces. Most were possible on deployment wiki, but a few groups weren't available there, so are logged on meta (and 1 on commons - flow bot)

Helper script I used (in case something like this comes up again):

new mw.Api().get( {
    action: 'query',
    list: 'allusers',
    auprop: 'groups',
    augroup: 'accountcreator|bot|bureaucrat|checkuser|confirmed|import|interface-admin|ipblock-exempt|oversight|steward|sysop|transwiki',

    formatversion: 2
} ).done( function ( response ) {
    var users = response.query.allusers;
    var usersMapped = users.map( function ( u ) {
        var groups = u.groups.filter( function ( gr ) {
            return ( gr !== '*' && gr !== 'user' && gr !== 'autoconfirmed' );
        } );
        return { name: u.name, groups: groups };

        } );

taavi added a comment.Dec 15 2020, 12:10 PM

According to https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Delete_a_wiki the wiki should be added to deleted.dblist. There is no deleted-labs.dblist. I'm not sure how to proceed here. Should I add it to the regular deleted file?

taavi added a comment.Dec 15 2020, 12:16 PM

The two uses for that dblist that I found are:

The file also has something_labswikimedia wikis which makes me think that is the correct file here

Krinkle added a comment.EditedMar 18 2021, 6:53 PM

The _labswikimedia projects were not in Beta Cluster, but under some other thing that we called "labs" before Wikimedia Cloud (nee Wikimedia Labs) existed. Anyway, yes, as far as I know it's safe to add things to deleted.dblist even if they never existed in production. From what I can tell, this list is only used as documentation file so that we know not to re-use old dbnames, and to have at least some search result to find out that something existed and is now deleted.
