Change Details

In MediaWiki core and various MW extensions, we have PHP CS rules that are excluded because the repo has various violations. In most cases, these can't be fixed automatically. Remove the exclusion from the phpcs.xml file, run `composer phpcs` or `phpcs -p -s`, and you will get a list of violations. Fix some (define a number here?) of these up, and commit them. If you fix them all, commit the removal of the exclusion from phpcs.xml too

[PHPCodeSniffer](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Continuous_integration/PHP_CodeSniffer) helps us stick to same coding standards across MediaWiki and its extensions. In MediaWiki core and various MW extensions, we have PHP CS rules in a file called `.phpcs.xml` that are excluded because the code repository has various violations. In most cases, these can't be fixed automatically. Remove a sniff from the `.phpcs.xml` file, run `composer phpcs` or `phpcs -p -s`, get a list of violations, provide patches in [Wikimedia Gerrit](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tutorial) to fix the violations. **If** you fix all violations for one sniff, also commit the removal of the exclusion from `.phpcs.xml` too. Fix some (define a number here?) of these up.
