I do not foresee any community concern if LQT were to be removed from enwiktionary.

I believe "Active volunteer" matches the current reality, and mw:Developers/Maintainers should, first and foremost, respect and document the reality.

You need to understand the extreme simplicity of the PageNotice extension; its single PHP file is only 100 lines long. The risk level associated to not having a WMF team assigned to this extension is negligible.

TTO added a comment to T215716: Allow admin settings or user preferences for how many search results to show per default (pagination).

@Quiddity I'm so sorry, I only just saw this - the change isn't deployed yet, so the message should have read "You will soon be able ...". Would it be possible to pull the message from this week's Tech News? By next edition, the code should be deployed so it will be able to be reused as is in the next edition.

TTO added a comment to T265716: Allow users to set their default watchlist item expiry time.

The first approach is always a safe assumption, I think, but this is not necessarily true for the second approach. It might be an edge case, but if someone explicitly set a watchlist expiry on a page, it may be reasonable to assume they intended to unwatch it at that exact time. For example, say it's Today's Featured Article, which they only watch for 24 hours. They have the "Add pages where I have performed a rollback to my watchlist" preference set to watch for 24 hours. If they revert an edit at the 23rd hour, they probably don't care to watch for another 24 hours on that particular page. So all in all, in my opinion is approach #1 of only applying an expiry if one doesn't already exist seems the most logical.

  • Since we have multiple search interfaces (SpecialSearch, AdvancedSearch, MediaSearch), it is a bit confusing on which of those interfaces are impacted by this setting

I proposed this in the Community-Wishlist-Survey-2022 and it only got 25 votes (#135 in the ranking), but I'm working on it myself nonetheless.

Is there a way to move this to another tab? Having one tab with only one option is weird plus having many tabs is bad UX.

TTO added a comment to T301936: Interwiki prefix "wikipedia" not working on multilingual wikimedia projects .

On mw.org at least, only wikipedia: is affected.

TTO added a comment to T301936: Interwiki prefix "wikipedia" not working on multilingual wikimedia projects .

The mystery here is why only the wikipedia: interwiki appears to be affected. If this is indeed the case, it's not actually a blocker to deploying to group2 (Wikipedia sites don't use the wikipedia: interwiki). But it's a bad regression on the group0/group1 sites currently impacted, including big ones like Commons, Meta and Wikidata.

This task looks set to come in 10th in the Community-Wishlist-Survey-2022 ; it didn't look particularly difficult to code up, so I thought I'd have a crack.
