Looks like you're not in the LDAP WMF group yet: https://ldap.toolforge.org/user/elliottetzkorn

The full names of these repos in gerrit is the following (note that they all start with mediawiki):

  • mediawiki/extensions/MobileFrontend
  • mediawiki/extensions/MultimediaViewer
  • mediawiki/extensions/ReaderExperiments
  • mediawiki/skins/MinervaNeue
  • mediawiki/extensions/ReadingLists
  • mediawiki/extensions/Popups
  • mediawiki/extensions/MediaSearch
  • mediawiki/extensions/WikimediaCustomizations

If you were to be added to the LDAP WMF group, it should grant you access to these repos (since WMF has access to mediawiki/*), so that would be one way to solve the ticket.

@etz: Per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Privilege_policy, "Most WMF employees are in the wmf group in LDAP, which automatically grants them membership of the mediawiki group."
Per https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/SRE/LDAP/Groups/Request_access, I'd recommend to request getting added to the wmf LDAP group via IDM instead.
If that sounds reasonable, please decline this task. Thanks! :)
