The changes for new accounts will be tracked under {T191888}. Based on consultation, we should deploy the second change sometime between now and the end of May.

= Developer notes
The deploy script should take care of the following
[] wmgUsePopups is currently messy simplify it
```
pp_stage0' => true,
'pp_stage1' => true,
// T172291
'enwiki' => true,
'dewiki' => true,
```
should be:
```
'wikipedia' => true,
```
[] wgPopupsAnonsExperimentalGroupSize should be set to 0 for all wikis ('default'). Counter-intuitively this means Popups is enabled to 100% of anons. Note given the value of wmgUsePopups this will not enable Popups for non-wikipedias
= During deploy
[] Verify that Page previews is showing on all wikipedias for anonymous users and for logged in (only if opted in) - I suggest testing Spanish, German, Hebrew. Be careful to test anonymous behaviour in an incognito window as you may have previously been opted in via the footer)
[] Verify that the [[ https://grafana.wikimedia.org/dashboard/db/eventlogging-schema-jumbo?orgId=1&var-datasource=eqiad%20prometheus%2Fops&var-schema=VirtualPageView | rate of events for VirtualPageViews ]] is still at healthy values (estimated average: ~700-800 events/sec; may be above or below that depending on time of day and day of week). Errors are around normal rate.
[] Verify that page previews remains disabled on all other projects e.g. Wikidata, Wiktionary, English Wikipedia
