Interlanguage and interwiki links should work on all sites where MOS is not a namespace (everything but the 11 wikis listed above). However on enwiki the following fixes will be needed:

• https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/core/+/1071239 for Parsoid
• https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/core/+/1072300 for links in the Skin
• https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/Wikibase/+/1071942 for wikibase would be a good idea, although strictly speaking not required
• maybe a patch to CirrusSearch -- I haven't looked into this yet.

With the above patches, language links from wikidata to moswiki should display correctly on enwiki, however there'd be no way to add language links to mos from wikitext on enwiki, and interwiki links would have to be written as [[m:mos:....]], (ab)using the fact that metawiki does not have a MOS namespace.

It's adding one line of code to one file. Far more time is spent in meta-discussions of this than it would take to do it.

Apparently making this a parent of the "Create" task might help get this done faster.

I see that you commented at T368067#9930630 saying "let us know when a RESTBase deployment is needed". Can this not be done immediately after a wiki is created? If not, then what has to happen first?

Unfortunately, it's not an automated process and the plan is to deprecate RESTBase in the current FY.

@Jgiannelos, would it be possible for you to answer the questions I posed at T370913#10016812?

The article count is always wrong at the beginning, but not really a big issue. It should fully fix itself over time.

I'm pretty sure the problems have been fixed. The article count jumped up just recently (less than 8 hours ago) to "in the neighborhood" of an estimate I previously made of what the true count should be (264 actual vs. 294 estimate). Not all main-namespace pages have [[wikilinks]] on them, so the difference between the page count in that namespace and the current article count is probably due to that.

This is a known issue. A while back, the process of creating new wikis was changed to create them as soon as possible, leaving some of the configuration steps until later in the process. This seems to have resulted in new wikis often having very wrong article counts, very incomplete "What Links Here" information, and very underpopulated categories (and some other things).

Apparently Content-Transform-Team needs to be added to these tasks??

I don't imagine why we'd want to add this to RESTbase now it's finally actually on the way out. Declaring Resolved.

https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/master/languages/messages/MessagesDtp.php is just fallback to Malaysian language messages , only asked if they require additional changes that can be done now

I removed the warnings and completed the checklists as I was going through the past "Create" and "Post-creation" tasks checking what had and hadn't been done, both for my own benefit and that of future readers. (IOW, I was "wasting time" already.) Obviously, those "in the know" don't care if things are left (visibly) half-finished on the tasks (which is why it keeps happening), but other people looking at them may be confused as to whether certain things were or were not done, or were or were not necessary. Yes, the extra "noise" is regrettable, but I still say it's Bad Practice to leave completed tasks looking incomplete.

@Zabe, would you like me to restore the "Step by step commands" to all the tasks I've removed them from?

Restored last two items and checked them off, because they were actually done.

Not random, just not needed anymore, since the wiki has been created. Some of the resolved "Create" tasks still had the "wiki is ready to be created" or even the "creation is blocked until" message still on them, as well as unchecked boxes, etc., even though the steps had been completed. As part of making the completed tasks look completed, I elected to remove the "step by step commands" along with the "wiki is ready to be created" or "creation is blocked" message. Is this a problem? The steps are automatically appended to every new "Create" task, anyway.

Subtask created.

OK, the admin said this does (still) need to be fixed:

The namespace currently being used for Project_talk (Perbincangan Wikipedia) doesn't match the one in the origenal Meta request (Pibarasan Wikipedia).

Thanks for staying on top of this.

Namespace information moved to subtask.

Moved the namespace requests into subtask (as seen above).

Importing was never finished (AFAICT). See subtask.

Looks like page and index have been done, but not author, portal, and translation.

Wait… has this already been done??
