Bug 25762 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Who is running such multi-wiki scripts now? Priyanka Dhanda seems to have left the WMF, if wiki is up-to-date, and she had a script for such tasks which she used some times.

Copying the meaning of this tracking bug from bug 16614:

(Aryeh Gregor in comment #2)

Re dependency on 16660: this should really be fixed so that it doesn't happen
again/automatically fixes itself, not just by running a script on Wikimedia.
