@Ammarpad: I don't understand what is being asked for, and where...

"Move wgULSLanguageDetection variable to CommonSettings.php" from where? InitialiseSettings.php? Somewhere else?
Add documentation where exactly? in the ULS code base? In some mediawiki-config file?

One of the weakness points observed in 20200225-mediawiki interface language inbcident is

Then it should be added to the incident documentation. :)

Aklapper removed a project: Wikimedia-Incident.

The default incident report template contains the following text, in the Actionables section:
NOTE: Please add the Wikimedia-Incident Phabricator project to these follow-up tasks and move them to the "follow-up/actionable" column.
So I am not sure why you removed the tag, if the instruction is no longer valid, it should be updated to not mislead.

It's currently in InitialiseSettings.php, so yes.

This task is about Wikimedia configuration, I think the task title quite clearly shows that. But to clarify more: I am saying that inline doc, should be added above the variable like this. If there were such doc, this incident could have been prevented.

It was added already. I am quoting from there: Cf. Report conclusion

@Ammarpad: I did that because this task was/is not listed under "Actionables" on that wiki page.

Thanks, in that case I'm adding WMF-General-or-Unknown because tasks should have related codebases associated. :)
