Something like enwiki's version of the spamprotectiontext message (that's shown to someone who tries to post a revision containing blocked URLs) sounds like what you want here, or at least one of the pages it links to. I'm not sure if there's a particularly good language-agnostic page on metawiki to be the default, though.

@mpopov We haven't coordinated with them about it. That said, we've also not been touching the schemas (this patch did because desktop and mobile are inconsistent, but it wasn't necessary and so nobody has merged it), so is there actually anything to coordinate around the migration?

It only triggers if an element with that ID isn't present on the page, which #top isn't since it's not part of the default skin, so a fun part of this is that there's a lot of semi-broken links being generated by the enwiki default signature (and that gadget).

What's supposed to go inside that "learn more" dialog is the page's lede section if there's no comments within it. (That's why Redrose64's talk page doesn't have it hidden -- it has that "welcome" message that's signed.)

Those original lines (delete mwData.attrs.refGroup; rather than delete mwData.attrs.group;) have been that way for a very long time -- at least since 2016. Not sure if it's been broken the whole time, or if the name of the attribute coming from parsoid shifted at some point...

The difficulty here is that ConfigDependency is supposed to be a generic container for a value from any ServiceOptions config store. As such, altering its isExpired method to refetch its config store would require that it also knows which method to call to do so.

DLynch added a comment to T359128: Pre-/Post-analysis of mobile VE as default (partner wikis).

For the sake of precision, it set VE as the default mobile experience for: anyone who had never edited before. (Because if they had, even on desktop, they'd have a cookie/preference that we'd listen to instead.) In *practice*, this probably does boil down to new accounts and logged out accounts, with the caveat that logged out accounts do get a localStorage preference saved for the last editor used on that device.

With that merged the apps will need to bump the schema version of EditAttemptStep that they're submitting with to 2.0.3 for this field to be present.

DLynch added a comment to T353911: iOS and Android - Explore adding app_install_id with edit data sent to Editattemptstep.

@MNeisler no objections to that column, since we’ve not got anywhere else obvious to put that data. It should be a pretty simple change.

Someone else tested on Android and didn't see this happening, so I presume it's something to do with either iOS keyboard issues or our previous attempts to mitigate said issues.

Yeah, we'd had that open issue to clean this up for a while, so I figured that taking this opportunity when we were otherwise going to have to put work into fixing the feature just made sense.

DLynch added a comment to T357734: Visual Editor unable to be used when submitting Wikipedia:Did you know applications.

The behavior sounds basically-correct: Template isn't a namespace where you're allowed to use VisualEditor, because almost everything in that namespace is a template and VE would be extremely unhelpful for that. In this specific case there's a subpage which isn't really a template, but VE doesn't have any particular way to know about that.

It's already in that file, so I assume that the issue is something like that not actually being loaded on mobile. (And unifying all that would be a much bigger change...)

Alternately: adding a JSON blob of data to a single tag with the count of sentences, but then we'll need to write something to actually display that data since it's completely hidden by default.

I can elaborate! I prefer alt 1 because the buttons don't require that you read the text to know what will happen. Makes it easier for someone who's working through a lot of suggestions to act quickly.
