Description MZMcBride 2008-09-12 21:08:30 UTC

Following the implementation of single-user login, importing from any public Wikimedia project to another should be possible for admins.

Comment 1 MZMcBride 2008-09-12 21:29:47 UTC

Removed shell keyword (as this isn't ready) and added two dependencies.

Comment 2 Filip Maljkovic [Dungodung] 2008-09-13 12:43:49 UTC

I guess this is related to bug 14264, as can be seen from the comments on that page.

Comment 3 MZMcBride 2012-09-05 20:36:39 UTC

Bumping this. Is there any reason this can't be done now?

A number of reasons I'd say. There may be consensus for a subset of interwikis but discussion wasn't much participated.

What reasons? Your link doesn't provide much insight.

Comment 6 MZMcBride 2013-04-05 12:08:15 UTC

For the record, that discussion had nothing to do with this bug. I don't believe this is a "shellpolicy" issue, as it's clearly a desired enhancement across Wikimedia wikis. Removing the keyword and the unrelated URL.

Comment 7 This, that and the other (TTO) 2014-08-29 12:19:50 UTC

I think, however this is done, it is probably going to require some changes (or a new script) in WikimediaMaintenance. I have found it incredibly difficult to get people to review patches in that repository, so don't expect a hasty resolution.

Comment 8 This, that and the other (TTO) 2014-08-30 06:42:04 UTC

It *may* be possible without changing WikimediaMaintenance. Let's see...

Comment 9 Gerrit Notification Bot 2014-08-30 06:42:31 UTC

Change 157338 had a related patch set uploaded by TTO:
Allow import from any WMF project to any other
