Hello

Thank you all for the great efforts made concerning this message!

I plan to deliver it on Wednesday August 26. Until then, please check on the translations or finish them: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/Server_switch_2020

One item had some issues and I had to change the translations. I did my best to fix it but it may need some proofreading: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Translations?message=Translations%3ATech%2FServer+switch+2020%2F3&namespace=1198

Thank you!

Hello

On September 1st, all the traffic from the wikis will be switched to the secondary data center (like we did in 2018). It means that all wikis will be on read-only mode on September 1st around 14:00 UTC, for up to 60 minutes.

A message to inform our communities has been written, to be sent to wikis: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/Server_switch_2020

More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis on week 35 (starting Monday 24). Please inform your community about this event!

Thank you for your help,
Benoît
