Description

This is a task to be used in the ticket parent-child graph to track things that will happen before and after this update.

A probable order from 1.39 update:

  • create new mediawiki-143 image
  • create new mediawiki-143 deployments but ship no traffic there
  • generate new db snapshot to add to api
  • enable new wikis to be created with new 1.43 version
  • migrate staging wikis
  • migrate production wikis
  • remove 1.39 releases
  • shortcut out any "update" routing
