Does it make sense to keep other meta files besides README? e.g: AUTHORS and LICENSE.

I think so, yes, but no strong opinion.

I did a shallow clone of mediawiki/extensions and mediawiki/skins to look for references to Design Style Guide. I could recursively init submodules of the latter but not of the former due to bad refs.

On both trees searching for design/style-guide returned nothing so it isn't being used as a Git module. Though there are still a few references to design.wikimedia.org/style-guide.

@Aklapper Would it be unclean to keep the Github repo (in this special case it was the source location, everything else got mirrored from there) just in "archived" state for better historic visibility?
It already features two prominent archived notices. From design perspective this seems satisfying enough. Any further technical reasons?
