Add "Endowment" namespace to Foundation Governance Wiki (foundation.wikimedia.org)
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The Wikimedia Endowment team has begun publishing its documentation on Foundation Governance Wiki. To match the rest of the documentation on that wiki, we would like to add an "Endowment" namespace to house these pages. It should also be added as a default for the search bar and have access to Visual Editor.

@Jdforrester-WMF - if you or someone you know has a chance to review this patch real quick - it would be greatly appreciated. :)

This looks fine; do you want me to get it deployed?

@Jdforrester-WMF - awesome - thank you! I was going to use this patch to address a few other namespace related requests. However, they are not ready yet - so if you are okay with two deployments - I think we are good to deploy this one (which of all the requests is most time-sensitive). If you would prefer to do just one deployment (or that this one patch not address multiple tickets) - I can process the other two related tickets in the next couple of days.

@Jdforrester-WMF, @Esanders, @Urbanecm - thank you for reviews and help as always. All of the namespaces requested are now in the patch attached to this ticket. It is ready for deployment whenever it gets final review. Thank you!!

PS. May be pinging on T346187 for help there as well. Again, thank you as always - and feel free to ask me on Slack to not ping again. ;p

You probably learned that from James already, but ftr, config changes (and backports) need to be scheduled for deployment via https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments.
