I have now removed the link from https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_Stakeholders%27_Group as a (hopefully!) temporary measure.

This does not qualify as UBN hence resetting priority.

The account seems to be https://twitter.com/mwstake_group

So all mentions of the gone account need to be replaced by the new one.

@MarkAHershberger Before closing this issue I wanted to verify that "all mentions of the gone account" are replaced by the new one. And I had claimed the issue yesterday to do just that. As I had feared this is not yet the case. There is at least one more prominent mention of the obsolete account. Have a look at the second paragraph of this page: https://mwstake.org/

Akuckartz moved this task from Needs Discussion to Doing on the MediaWiki-Stakeholders-Group board.Jun 17 2020, 5:14 PM

@Akuckartz Thanks for noting that. I've fixed that one. Thanks for taking this on!

@MarkAHershberger Thanks! I did not find any further references to the old Twitter account. Therefore resolved.
