The Reader Growth team maintains roughly a dozen projects. A list of these projects can be found here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Readers/Reader_Growth/Maintenance_Levels_and_Responsibilities
Right now, most of these projects are categorized as "maintenance status: pending" until we determine how much support we can realistically provide for each one.
As we settle on a support level for each project, we should ensure that each repository includes a CONTRIBUTING.md document that reflects the support level we provide. The corresponding doc from the Reader Experiments extension (added here) can be adapted for use in these projects. If a project is going to be decommissioned, we should make that clear instead.
This task was spun out of T401435. We may want to wait until we've clarified the support level for a given project before creating contributor documentation for it.
The markdown file will use this general outline:
