Completely forgot "normal users" don't just bypass the throttle check. My bad.

Is this a side effect of the resolution to the following task: New wikis not created properly?

I believe this should be fixed?

Jack cleaned up the affected wikis, and I've turned off CreateWiki (ish) for the time being. New wikis before we get back to 1.34 are going to cause more issues than its worth.

Chirp considerations - Matomo databases are sizable.

So we now run a find command which pipes to xargs to delete directories under /path/to/settings/deleted that haven't been modified in 30 days. This gives us enough time to hopefully notice we've deleted the wrong wiki or for someone to appeal a deletion (not that we have a formal appeals process) while not hoarding deleted wikis forever.
So this turned out to be surprisingly difficult to actually fix. For some reason, the server keeps throwing me either old or 503ing CSS...
No longer deployed in favour of SemanticBundle.

@jack Did this ever get fixed?
Could not reproduce, no indication of continued issue

As this is bundled with MediaWiki by default now, I don't see any huge issue with enabling it globally - we'll probably roll this with MediaWiki 1.34
Got the same just now. Does that mean that there is no way to create a wiki for a unforeseen time?

It is entirely intentional. Language subdomains are a blocker for our HTTPS rollout, so we're actively removing the ability to create new ones and are in the process of clearing up as many of them as we can. When we get a better idea of how many we need to keep, further details will be provided to existing wikis.

I remember getting a similar error. I think this is - at least partly - because page imports are currently disabled (they were apparently being abused, so they're working on a new, more manageable system, last I heard).

The extension is unmaintained upstream, and we'll be dropping it as soon as it causes a security issue or no longer works.

No. Oversight is the group that remains at Wikipedia assigned the RevDel permissions. Oversight was an extension that used to leave no trace that was replaced by RevDel. All RevDel now leaves a trace and can be restored, all this information is on the WP:OS page you linked - however, this does not matter as we are not granting that right to users.
They're the same thing. They use the same feature. We're not giving out rights to them, and we won't be "cleaning up" logs and history in future, unless there's a leak of personal information or libel as stated in the system message for RevisionDelete.

Been deployed for a number of months now with no issues.
So I played around with a few headers today, after giving Varnish most of Utter's RAM to play with. Pages at /wiki/ are currently cached for 10 minutes (we ought to maybe change this to be a little more namespace specific and/or exclude Special: pages?) and images for a month.

Utter is now serving requests on all ShoutWiki sites. Will close task assuming no issues reported within the next few days.

@znotch190711 If you aren't sure what projects to add a task to, don't. This isn't a task that requires a lot of code so it doesn't belong in Major Code. Also, stop the world and his wife to tasks. We've got systems that watch for new tasks so we can action them where necessary. What we don't have, is systems to go and clean all this junk from everyone's inboxes.

We don't need CentralAuth, we already have a global user table. @jack developed the GlobalUserPage extension for ShoutWiki.
