The alert DispatchChanges Normal job backlog time (mean avg, 15min) became Firing at 14:40 UTC, but Resolved at 15:00 UTC (according to my email inbox). However, on Grafana it was still Alerting until I changed the data source (following a recommendation by @fgiunchedi). It’s currently unclear why it seemed to disappear from alerts.w.o when grafana.w.o still had it.

Quoting the first one for convenience:

message = DispatchChanges job backlog is over 10 minutes! Normal values are between 0.5s and 1s
However, on Grafana it was still Alerting until I changed the data source (following a recommendation by @fgiunchedi).
FTR, I just applied the same fix to the corresponding panel on the Wikidata Alerts dashboard.
