Update Wikipedia Library products that may be affected by IP Masking
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

IP Masking will affect lots of our products, features, tools, gadgets, etc. This task is for tracking work to update those that are owned by The-Wikipedia-Library Team, ahead of IP Masking being enabled on WMF sites.

See T326816: [Epic] Update features for temporary accounts, particularly What will be affected.

A preliminary investigation (T326759) has found that the following may be affected:

  • TheWikipediaLibrary

Event Timeline

Looks like this is the only piece of code getting flagged here: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/extensions/TheWikipediaLibrary/+/01f90ceca6b40ef2f2cdee021065a0d9b48f3bc1/includes/EchoHelper.php#38

Since notifications are only sent to registered users, and reading T326816, I assume this isn't going to affect the TheWikipediaLibrary extension at all. Do you see any potential issues here @jsn.sherman?

I think we're okay since we check for sul attachment pretty early on, but it would be pretty easy to test locally just to be on the safe side.
