Change Details

As of current, MW core's deprecated [[ https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/master/resources/src/mediawiki.less/mediawiki.ui/variables.less | mediawiki.ui variables ]] rely on a mix of variables that don't follow the [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Coding_conventions/CSS#Variable_naming | CSS naming scheme guidelines ]]. While we're moving forward to rely on a standardized set of variables to enable using general variables with an override/call of WikimediaUI Base variables for Wikimedia projects to be relied on, - it's necessary to deprecate mediawiki.ui's variables and - simpler to rename and phase out the remaining variables in a go

Skins and extensions are targeted in separate tasks.
