@bmansurov is this on @greg radar? Did you reach out to him?

No I haven't.

Sure, I'll announce it in Tech News. Do you know yet when it'll be deployed to the Wikipedias?

Sorry, I can't read all of this ticket so two questions:
Are both (all?) extensions:

1. Security reviewed?
2. Deployed on beta cluster?

Not yet but it's at the top of @csteipps queue and the Cards extension is so simple we're not expecting too many issues.

2. Deployed on beta cluster?

RelatedArticles is (it's already in production on Wikivoyage) but latest Cards is not pending this patch - https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/256396

To ride the wmf.8 train on 2015-12-08 this needs a few patches prepared:

• A patch in the spirit of https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/251140/ to add 'Cards' to the list of extensions to branch
• A config change in the spirit of https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/251130 to go with the train:
  • Remove $IP/extensions/Cards/extension.json and $IP/extensions/RelatedArticles/extension.json from wmf-config/extension-list-labs
  • Add $IP/extensions/Cards/extension.json to wmf-config/extension-list (RelatedArticles is already in there)
  • Remove the $wmgUseRelatedArticles, $wmgRelatedArticlesShowInSidebar and $wmgRelatedArticlesShowInFooter blocks from wmf-config/CommonSettings-labs.php
  • Add $wmgUseRelatedArticles, $wmgRelatedArticlesShowInSidebar and $wmgRelatedArticlesShowInFooter blocks to wmf-config/CommonSettings.php
  • Add/update $wmgUseRelatedArticles, $wmgRelatedArticlesShowInSidebar and $wmgRelatedArticlesShowInFooter settings wmf-config/InitialiseSettings.php (all new features should be off by default)
• A config change to run right after the train to actually enable the new features

Getting everything setup but left in a disabled state with the train will ensure that the l10n caches are ready to go when we turn it on. Splitting the deploy of the code and enabling the feature into two config changes just makes it a lot easier to quickly turn things back off if there is some unforseen issue in production.

@mmodell also needs to be pinged to let him know that these patches are in Gerrit and that a new extension deploy is going to be riding the train.

I was just reminded by @Legoktm that the new extension will also need to be added to the N-1 branch so that the l10n generation process doesn't freak out. This should be fairly simple for @mmodell or whoever runs the train deploy to do after the new branch has been cut.

It would be great if someone could write an summary page on either metawiki or mediawikiwiki that will manage some expectations, and direct feedback, even if it is [[mw:Help:RelatedArticles]].

This is now riding the train.
I've added some blocking tasks that should be completed and deployed before enabling it.

Change 257435 merged by jenkins-bot:
Enable RelatedArticles on all wikipedias in beta

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/257435

So the big question, why is this only going to the Wikipedias? Can someone please point to the conversations and invitations for the other sister wikis in how it could be of benefit to them.

I'm not sure why my original patch was re-created without being reviewed? Anyway, I'm glad @Jdlrobson's patch has been merged.

Change 255553 abandoned by Bmansurov:
Enable RelatedArticles and Cards on Wikipedia

Reason:
seems another patch has been submitted and merged

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/255553

I am now seeing "related articles" appear at the bottom of english Wikipedia articles.

However, it is not an option in my "beta features" list. I have tested with both "Automatically enable all new beta features" ticked and un-ticked, and the "related articles" still appear regardless.

It seems the "(but enabled only in beta)" component of this project isn't working as planned.

(I'm running Chrome 47 on a Mac 10.10.2)

@Wittylama, thanks for reporting this. Can you also share a URL where this is happening. From your comment I gathered that it's happening on all article pages. It would still be helpful to get a couple of links. Thanks!

hi @bmansurov. I created T121402 specifically for this issue as I wasn't sure if this phabricator ticket was the correct place to put things. In it, I added some more detail (like that when I tried to see how it displayed for a different user I couldn't get it to load on ANY page.

For me, it loads on EVERY page, even though I have "Automatically enable all new beta features" turned off and there is no specific Beta-features item for "related articles" specifically.
For example, "long time, no see" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_time_no_see gives me

• Chinglish
• List of English words of Chinese origin
• Chinese Pidgin English

Second example (chosen by clicking 'random article'): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabriels,_New_York gives me

• Hamlet
• Adirondack Park
• Brighton, Boston

Interestingly... this is the William Shakespeare kind of Hamlet, not the small-town kind. That indicates to me that these suggestions are based solely on word frequency in the article ("Gabriels is a hamlet in the Town of Brighton in Franklin County, New York...") and doesn't actually check to notice if they are disambiguated in a different direction...

Confusingly the feature is listed as "read more" (only one of the extensions that powers it is called related articles). Can you confirm that shows up as I'm unable to replicate.

Well f*@# me!! You're quite right. It IS called "read more" on the Beta page and I didn't see it because I was looking for something called "related articles".

I've now turned it off, and can confirm that this also turns off the feature. So.. it works like it says on the tin! Feel free to close T121402 as well due to user-error!!

I did also create T121398 with a few suggestions (which is still valid) but I can put them on the talkpage of https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Projects/Read_more if you prefer?

Getting those thoughts on the talk page would be great. Sadly not so many editors are viewing Phabricator so hopefully it will generate more conversations and give us an idea of what we need to focus on to improve the product! Thanks for taking the time to try it out!

I've now added my various comments on that talkpage. Cheers.
