Change Details

**User story** As an engineer, I want aliases to have a dedicated and granular usage tracking key, especially in different languages (e.g., A.en, A.fr), so that alias changes are tracked per language and reduce irrelevant noise in the DB and watchlist. **Background** Alias changes are ~20% of all change propagation Currently, they are all in the O usage, which can’t be scoped Currently rated as an M ticket How labels previously have been granularized . https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T172914 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T90436 **Acceptance Criteria** [x] Implement alias usage tracking with A.<lang> keys [x] Ensure that the languages in the tracking in client are correct. Making sure wbc_entity_usage table had the correct language. [x] Ensure other usages still work as usual, except O aspect [x] Ensure that alias updates no longer cause noise in unrelated languages’ watchlists [x] Set up collapsing limit (probably 10) configuration for aliases. [x] Remove aliases from Miscellaneous [x] Set up translation https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/Wikibase/+/1177406 [x] Update docs in repo [] Update this doc after merge https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Schema/wbc_entity_usage [] Let community know that noisy alias notifications will disappear (there are related tickets but the exact one needs to be found to report) **Success Metric** ~20% less changes are propagated.
