Great :)
Also, it looks like the original bug (reported in the MW-Vagrant project) covers this specific request from Reading, no? Essentially,
let's see how far we can get with a general "MW-Vagrant (WMF?) testing
data import" instead of a vertical specific "reading-web test data set". If what the Reading team needs is way too much for this then we can break it out, otherwise it seems like a needless distinction.
It does yup. I've already tagged the bug with it. I'm hoping by tackling this we can come up with a common solution. The way I imagine this working in future is we have various vagrant roles for stock data e.g. reading-web-stock-data, editing-web-stock-data, sad-web-stock-data There would also be non team specific stock data that might be a sub role of this, for example, the reading web team commonly has to setup the wikidata role and manually create articles in the wikidata instance and local instance that are tied to each other - this takes a ridiculous amount of time and is one I'm keen to automate, given that we are leaning more heavily on wikidata descriptions and other data in there.
Rob - I've setup https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/QA/Sample_articles as a place we can start to collect and think about these pages.
