Create a Wikidata repository
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

  • Create a new wiki for testing. RobLa suggested data-test.wikimedia.org after consideration also data.wikidata.org could be interesting to test the domain
  • The wiki should run on the wikidata branch of MediaWiki
  • the Wikidata repository extension should be installed (plus dependencies), and probably other extensions that will be run on Wikidata later
  • For labs, we have some puppet-scripts already, if you are interested. Our people working with them have not been to happy with them, though.
  • The wiki should be mostly locked down for editing for now

Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement

Thanks for filing this, Denny! Just to clarify one point: we will need to get the ContentHandler branch merged (bug 38622), and only then do this. We can't practically run a branch in production.

set up wikidata.org with SSL and DNS and everything else that is needed, but keep it closed first

And CentralAuth to a new second level domain.

Sam, could you file RT tickets for the pieces that you aren't going to be able to do?

Just to confirm, we need a wildcard SSL certificate for the wikidata.org domain?

Sam: Yes. We need *.wikidata.org

Contradictory to comment 0 we try to set up wikidata.org from the start. If it turns out to be too hard to go for the new SLD, we fall back for now to a back up.
