Today
We previously considered a holistic solution for all projects and decided it was too disruptive to some projects - particularly articles that use logos that typically have brand guidelines around how they should be used. For example McDonalds logo. As a result we compromised on a solution that doesnt force a white background on any template as we believe it creates too much unnecessary work for communities.
Specifically "mw-mf-page-center {
background-color: #fff; }" keeps getting copied to banners for some reason. We should set up AbuseFilter rules on meta to prevent this, this is occuring way too often.
This is an issue with the banner.
Yesterday
Note: This is not a bug - it was how mobile was intentionally built, so I've updated this as a question.
Needs analysis to determine what would appear in the menu.
I assume this is done.
Needs analysis to determine if this is a good idea and what would appear in sticky header.
Unclear on next steps on this task.
Steph to attempt to replicate. We are currently leaning towards removing the code powering the legacy parser given indications that it's not being used and nothing has broken. We have not had any feedback about this in the 2 months since it changed.
We need to decide on the mechanism part and make sure that we send the pings from one wiki site to the other. Brooke left the above notes proposing an API method with an API action for purging all pages that use a single chart and then when Commons updates those data pages it will look up through the wiki ID impacted page and communicate those changes to the wiki.
How about a build step where you generate an array of title pages that match the categories once and then providing this as a static array. Presumably category members won't be changing enough to warrant an API request on every page?
Yep that's a pass!
