This task outlines how we want beta wikis to be configured in order to be able to do QA for the #add-link project: For each wiki (English, Czech, Vietnamese, Arabic, and Bengali) we want to set this up for: [ ] Import articles from production using Special:Export / mwscript importDump.php [ ] Run the GrowthExperiments importOresTopics.php script ({T276163}) which assigns topics to articles in the beta wiki's search index, using the production article copies as the source for what those topics should be [ ] Use `$wgGENewcomerTasksRemoteApiUrl = null;` so the suggestion engine uses local search. [x] Use `$wgGELinkRecommendationsUseEventGate = false;` to signal that we will write updates to the search index directly, unlike in production [x] use `$wgGELinkRecommendationServiceUrl` to connect to the external traffic production release (T269581) [x] use a personal access token from api.wikimedia.org stored in private puppet to be able to connect [x] Keep `$wgGELinkRecommendationFallbackOnDBMiss` set to `false` like we have in production [x] `refreshLinkRecommendations.php` will run hourly via cron just like it does in production
