We have too many calendars in different supports that don't integrate with
each other. Frequently events are expected to be introduced in several
calendars, often they are not introduced in any. WMF employees frequently
pay attention only to what shows up in their Google Calendar.

Nick shows a glimpse of the problem at

Now imagine that we could submit Wikimedia events in Phabricator's
calendar, following one process, and then users would have ways to query
that calendar and integrate the data in their calendar services /
applications.
