[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Update portals submodule for WP25 birthday preview [2]
Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-operations) [2026-01-15T08:25:14Z] <hashar@deploy2002> hashar: Backport for [[gerrit:1227256|Revert "Update portals submodule for WP25 birthday preview." (T128546 T414533)]] synced to the testservers (see https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mwdebug). Changes can now be verified there.
The link https://wikimediafoundation.org/wikipedia25/wikipedia-mascot/?utm_campaign=eepp&utm_source=eepp&utm_medium=eepp ends up pointing to a non existing page, I imagine that is because the page had not been published yet.
The URL comes from https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/wikimedia/portals/+/1226353 and the deploy change is https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/mediawiki-config/+/1227256 . I have reverted that last change to cancel the update.
The deployment change is restored by https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/mediawiki-config/+/1227258 . It is trivial enough that any deployer can push it via SpiderPig once the target page has been published.

Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-operations) [2026-01-15T08:52:28Z] <hashar> purged portals URLs using: cat /srv/mediawiki-staging/portals/urls-to-purge.txt | MEDIAWIKI_STAGING_DIR=/srv/mediawiki-staging mwscript purgeList.php # T414533

Somehow the page https://wikimediafoundation.org/wikipedia25/wikipedia-mascot/ had not been published when I have deployed the portals update. I thus went to cancel the deployment and rollback.
Eventually @ATitkov mentioned the link work, the page must have been published in between which I guess was a lack of synchronization between comm and me :-b I have deployed the change again, purged the URLs nd the orange button is now live on https://www.wikipedia.org/
