Hi Haytham,

Just to be clear, I was not proposing disabling translation of those pages. I just propose removing them as aggregate groups, because they're historical pages (and need to be discouraged for translation anyway, a different task on another slow/massive page).
Is there anything specific about the AggregateGroups feature that you find useful, in relation to these historical pages?

Hi Philippe,

Yup, that's the ideal solution (and tracked in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T90511 ), but in the meantime, I was just wondering if there was any benefit to anyone, in leaving these historic pages as AggregateGroups, or, if it would just be happy cleanup work for me to remove them. :-)

Thanks both.

Hi Nick,

I would request keeping Grants:IEG, Grants:PEG, Grants:TPS, Program Capacity and Learning, and Research Labs2 for Arabic.

Hi all,

Re: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:AggregateGroups
That page takes a long time to load on my old machine.
I'm wondering if I can/should just boldly disable(delete) some of the older groups?

Or, are these AggregateGroups still useful to you as translators, even though the content is {{historical}} ?

Specifically:
"Grants:IEG",
"GLAMing Madrid Challenge",
"Grants:PEG",
"Grants:TPS",
"Program Capacity and Learning",
"Research Labs2",
"Stewards elections 2015",
"Wikimedia Foundation elections 2013",
"Wikimedia Foundation elections 2015",
"Wikipedia 15".

That's all I can see that's obviously outdated.
Removing those few won't reduce the size of the Special page by much, but I suspect it is useful cleanup to do regardless. I just don't want to overlook a use-case!

Thanks for your input :)
