jack closed T41: Cleanup legacy image pathing as Resolved.

Pretty sure this got done ages ago as well.

jack added a comment to T44: Remove Aurora-specific MediaWiki core hacks.

Down to one core hack, the AJAX page watching one, as of Q1/2019. Should really figure out a way to get rid of that and then Aurora would be a nice, stand-alone skin that requires no core hacks whatsoever...

jack closed T91: Remove wfMsg in DumpsOnDemand as Wontfix.

DumpsOnDemand is old and abandoned and won't be revisited anytime soon.

jack added a comment to T46: Make cross-wiki staff tools (LookupContribs, MultiLookup) great again.

LookupContribs v. 2.0 fixed this for LookupContribs, but as discussed on IRC, we'll need that schema change to the lookupcontribs table to be able to make MultiLookup use LC's dataset.

Which wiki does configure work with? ShoutWiki Hub only? I'm surprised that it even works at all in its curernt state, given the fact that the documentation page says it's incompatible with MediaWiki 1.28

lewiscawte added a comment to T94: Remove unused extensions.

There's a reason a number of extensions in the repository are unused. For Configure it's a case of "works okay for one wiki, not 8800+."

jack closed T68: HAWelcome take into account SocialProfile as Resolved.

Pretty much, yeah, although I'm not sure if the patch has been tested on wikis running both extensions. I think the reason I was keeping this open was due to my earlier comment about merging AutomaticBoardWelcome and HAWelcome, but we can create a separate task for that or something.

Based on the fact that patch was filed... over half a year ago, we can safely assume it's been deployed. Can we close this as resolved?

jack added a comment to T91: Remove wfMsg in DumpsOnDemand.

Yes, it's FOSS, and yes, the usage of wfMsg might break it under MW 1.27, but that's the very least of this extension's problems. I mean, a literal s/wfMsg/wfMessage/g will work because of the existence of Message::__toString, so if someone really wants to run this under 1.27, it's not this issue really blocking that -- it's the fact that the extension's somewhat ShoutWiki-specific, requiring a core hack (for the CustomSpecialStatistics hook) and uses some other deprecated things, such as PHP i18n and setup files...not to mention the obvious lack of scalability (a known design issue at the time).

jack added a comment to T92: Drop CodeReview from Repo.

We don't use this extension in production

This is correct, but that's also because we don't have that many overly technical wikis, and also because we've never advertised it. Granted, that hasn't stopped users in the past from requesting different kinds of unsupported extensions, but still.
