@Volker_E Looking forward to this! :-)

Moving to the backlog and changing priority as this is +6 mths old.

Thanks for sharing this @abi_

@Miriam this sounds like a great post! Let me know when the draft is ready. After, I can take a pass at editing it and post it to the blog.

Here is the sign-up sheet for folks interested in feedback/user testing. This is linked using a button on the Developer portal page on MediaWiki.

Resolving.

I also set up a session at the Wikimania Hackathon for 15:00 UTC on 13 August: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T287982

I set up an unconference session for Wikimania: https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2021:Unconference/Wikimedia_developer_portal

This is done for Wikimedia technical documentation: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Documentation/Audiences_for_Wikimedia_technical_documentation

As a frame or context for the question, I think it is important for us to define documentation. In my experience, folks see it as really nebulous and may not be thinking of it in the same way or in the same places.

@MattCleinman and @Dbrant Just wanted to touch base and see if you have had a chance to go through the suggested edits? Let me know if you have any questions.

Okay, this is fixed! :-)

@MoritzMuehlenhoff I will take a look. Sometimes images show up on the draft version in Wordpress but don't appear on the front-end when published. I should be able to fix it.

These are stacked now!

This has been posted! https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2021/07/23/june-2021-data-center-switchover/

Yes! Ah. I keep doing that! Thank you for reopening!

Note that we should revisit this as part of the content strategy for updating key docs.

Changing status to declined.

@yuvipanda Awesome! I will take a look.

Done: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Portal:Cloud_VPS/Admin/Runbooks

Awesome! I will move this over to the blog and will let you know when it is published (likely tomorrow, 23 July, or Monday 26 July.

@MoritzMuehlenhoff This has been published: https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2021/07/22/the-rollout-of-single-sign-on-sso-at-the-wikimedia-foundation/

Thanks, @MoritzMuehlenhoff I will be publishing this today or tomorrow and will share the link when it is up.

@MattCleinman and @Dbrant I left some comments and suggestions on the post. Please take a look and accept or decline (feel free to let me know if you have questions).

@Majavah Great catch! Fixed.

Let me fix that!

@MoritzMuehlenhoff Thanks for accepting the changes. I found a few images that might work. They are all in the lock and key theme from before. I like the top two of these the most. Let me know what you think:

@Andrew This has been published here: https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2021/07/19/introducing-database-as-a-service-on-cloud-vps/

@MoritzMuehlenhoff I did an editing pass and left some suggestions on the document. Can you please take a look and accept the suggestions? Once this is done, I'll move this over to the blog to prepare for publication.

@Legoktm I decided to move this into a Google doc for editing before moving this over to the blog. Can you take a quick look and accept/decline the suggested edits before I move this over?

@Andrew I left some suggestions on the document. Mostly, I just added some commas and switched some semicolons out for full-stops. Otherwise, it looks really great! Let me know once you've had a chance to review it, and I'll move this over to the blog for publication.

@MoritzMuehlenhoff (Sorry I was on holiday the last couple of weeks and am just getting to this.) I will take a look and provide suggestions for edits and improvements.

@MattCleinman Thank you! This sounds like a great topic.

@Legoktm and @wkandek Thank you for this (and your patience while I was out on vacation). I will move this over to the blog this week to format for publication!

@Andrew This sounds like a great idea. Can you change the permissions on the doc so that I can access it?

Sounds great! I am going to start moving it over to the blog to get ready for publication, and we can add the image if it arrives. Mostly, I'd like to publish by next Wed in order to meet Q4 deadline.

@Jhernandez I have copyedited your blog post. Feel free to take a look and accept or decline any changes. Once you're ready, let me know, and I'll move it over to the blog for publication.

Thanks for the update!

Fixed!

Done! :-)

@MoritzMuehlenhoff Just wanted to touch base and ask how you are doing with parts 2 and 3. Let me know if I can support in any way!

@Ladsgroup. Thanks! I'm going to go ahead and leave it published for now, as there aren't any major changes from the original that is already published on MW. If we want to switch the image later or make minor changes I can do that at any time. :-)

I haven't heard back from @Legoktm, but @Ladsgroup has had a chance to look it over. Since they are also CCd on the task, I went ahead and published the post to the blog.

@Legoktm I moved this over to the blog and prepped it for publication.

We should write a blog post about the upgrade in general too. Maybe later.

@Legoktm Great! Thank you for sharing this! It should be pretty straightforward to publish this in the blog!

Yay! This is done! :-)

Thanks, @Isaac - it looks good to me!

@Isaac Perfect! I will use that image!

@Isaac This is almost ready to go-- except for the featured image. For the blog, we typically use a photo for this, rather than a graphic. Would either of the following images work?

@Isaac I have taken a pass at this and suggested some edits. Can you please accept or decline them? After, I'll move it over to the blog to prep for publishing.

@srishakatux I published this. Before I send out announcements can you take a look and let me know if it looks good to you? https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2021/06/02/outreachy-round-21-experiences-and-outcomes/

@Isaac First of all, forgive me! For some reason, the notification for this slipped past me! But I will work on this right away!
