Archive the ParserMigration extension
Closed, DeclinedPublicRequest

Description

Reason
I'd like to suggest that MediaWiki-extensions-ParserMigration be archived:

To-do list

  • This task
    • Add maintainers of that extension as subscribers to this task (if they have no apparent Phabricator account, notify them on-wiki or via email if possible and note it here).
    • Add Phabricator project MediaWiki-extensions-ParserMigration as a tag for this task, and remove MediaWiki-extensions-Other as appropriate.
  • On-wiki documentation
    • Archive documentation on mediawiki.org (here): replace page contents with {{Archived extension|3781121|reason=Only used during the migration from tidy; see {{phab|T250936}} for more details.}}
    • If documentation page was translatable, remove <translate>, visit Special:PageTranslation, and click "remove from translation" (if you don't have the translation administrator right, ask a user who does).
    • Update Wikidata item (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q25860665) associated with documentation page
      • add statement Abandonware (Q281039) to instance of (P31) together with qualifier start time (P580) = the YYYY-MM-DD date that you decided to archive extension (generally per edit history)
      • add qualifier end time (P582) = the YYYY-MM-DD (same date as above) to instance of (P31) = MediaWiki extension (Q6805426)
  • Phabricator
  • Translatewiki.net/translations
  • Configuration/tests/integrations/etc.
  • Repositories

We may still potentially need it for switching over from MediaWiki core parser to Parsoid. If so, we will retarget that extension for that purpose. So, this should not be archived till we are sure it has outlived its purpose.

Per Subbu, declined for now.
