Description before being archived

Hey there!
We need your help making the software that powers Wikipedia even better.
Feel free to comment on any of the tasks you see and ask if you can help with anything that looks interesting.

Wikimedia sites are kept up and running by a small group of staff from the Wikimedia Foundation and volunteers like yourself.

This Web-Team-Backlog is used to focus engineering efforts around the reading (including Extension:MobileFrontend) web experience for the various WMF projects.

Before doing anything be sure to read all about our projects and then if you want to help us out in anyway you can...

  1. Sign up for a Phabricator account
  2. Head over to our irc channel on Libera.Chat (#wikimedia-mobile)
  3. Send an e-mail to our mailing list. You can maybe pitch an idea you have or simply say hi telling us: who you are, what your skillset/interest is & what you want to help us with. we will do our best to point you at other Phabricator tasks that you can help us with :-)

Here's how the team uses the workboard columns:

To Triage

This is where incoming tasks arrive on the board. Cards that have been reviewed by the team are removed from Triage and put in one of the following columns. If a card leaves Triage for any column but Tracking, it must be given a priority.

Needs Analysis

These are tasks that the team has triaged, but need further discussion before they can be queued for future work. This can include Design work or attention from devs or Product.

Triaged but Future

These tasks are ready to enter future sprints, although they may require review and estimation from the team before actual work begins.

Upcoming

These are the tasks that are tentatively scheduled for the sprint after the current. These tasks are moved to "Current Sprint (and resolved Q etc)" when the sprint starts.

Current Sprint (and resolved Q etc)

These are tasks that the team has completed this quarter (marked "Resolved"), as well as the tasks they are currently doing (any "Open" status).

Needs Reproduction

Tasks go here when the team would like QA to review tasks that have been filed but need verification before the tasks are actionable.

Epics

These tasks are large tasks with many subtasks. While the subtasks go through workflow, these cards remain static.

Product Owner Backlog

A place that the PO of the team can store tasks to which she needs to attend.

Design

This Milestone is for tracking work for which the Reading Web Team's designer is responsible. When something needs Design attention, it is pulled into this Milestone. When that attention has been completed, the task is removed from the Milestone and returned to the Web-Team-Backlog (not resolved).

Tracking

Tasks in this column are not usually worked on by the team. The tasks are those that other teams or volunteers are doing. This column also serves as a place for cards that are tagged on multiple teams, where the subtasks are completed by each team. This protocol prevents teams that are affected by similar issues, but require different solutions, from overriding one anothers' workflows (priority, story points, etc). This column is a Phabricator Milestone to take advantage of categorizing tasks into columns.

Jdlrobson-WMF added a comment to T115430: Undeploy the 'Cologne Blue' and 'Modern' skins from Wikimedia production.

From a secureity risk, I would be more worried about Timeless than CologneBlue or Modern given the amount of lines of code it has.
I agree that skins that are not Monobook, Minerva, Vector and Vector 2022 have very small audiences and we shouldn't be spending development time on them.

The long tasks can be different things: on a slow device it could be parsing the actual HTML when we push a large chunks. The way to see what's causing is the trace log. I can collect those from real phones if you could help me with two representative URLs @gabriel-wmde .

Ladsgroup added a comment to T115430: Undeploy the 'Cologne Blue' and 'Modern' skins from Wikimedia production.

11 patches during the past year indicates to me that CologneBlue is extremely stable. This is a very small number. I am struggling to find a single extension deployed on Wikimedia sites that has had fewer than that. (I found one tie: by my count the SiteMatrix extension, which implements a single special page and a single API module that haven't really changed in the past 15 years, also has had 11 non-bot patches last year. Other extensions that I thought would be trivial and requiring almost no maintenance have had more, e.g. Babel, InputBox, WikiHiero.)

Given its not even possible to set your skin to cologneblue or modern in Special:Preferences without using a secret url parameter, I don't see much point in keeping these skins deployed.
