In the Wikimedia Movement, there are a lot of manually or semi-manually maintained calendars on wiki:
*https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Events_calendar/about
Also, there are off-wiki calendars that would probably benefit from a list of events (i.e. https://diff.wikimedia.org/)
If we had an API for Special:AllEvents (and maybe some demonstration code for using it in Lua), then on-wiki communities could choose how to share the calendar of events in their own context. This kind of API would probably need some ways to filter within the API, for items that meet certain criteria.
