Change Details

So we have had the request for global templates (and gadgets) for a long time (T121470, and T6547 long before that). It was [[ https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2015 | supported by many community members ]] and by [[ https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T206056 | previous Tech Conf participants ]], but never actually implemented. So let's try to think how do we finally implement it: - Break one huge tasks into several smaller manageable tasks. - Figure out some implementation details. [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Global_templates/Draft_spec/TLDR | This page ]] and [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Global_templates/Draft_spec | this page ]] can be starting points, but they need some clarifications. - Leader: @Amire80 - Co-leader: @Tpt
