Hey, One rather big update on technical aspects of creating new wikis. As of now, if you create a ticket for creating a new wiki, the bot automatically creates some of the important patches and some subtickets for it. It basically creates patches that block us from moving forward (DNS entries, Wikimedia Messages) so we can get them merged and out of the way as soon as possible.
Please don't create patches or subtickets when you request a new wiki until the bot handles them.
Also when creating the ticket, you need to specify the project name in English too like "Japanese Wikivoyage" in a field. I already added that to the template: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:New_wiki_request&d...
Since now the bot can create subtickets and gerrit patches, later I will expand it to do more (like CX, pywikibot, wikidata, ...) but that's good for now.
Best
