David,
I don't know of any specific rules about what's allowed in Phabricator. I *do* know that a number of teams at the WMF use Phabricator for non-coding tasks—for example, see T89355 [1], T97004 [2], T100918 [3], and T101207 [4].
I speak only for myself, but I really like the idea of community members using Phab to track Wikimedia-related projects like surveys and book scanning. I can't see any downsides, other than the frightening possibility of running out of numbers. (I do think category cleanup on a specific wiki would be better tracked on the wiki itself with maintenance templates, but I don't feel very strongly about it.)

Great question. I'd love a structured task manager for such things, also.

Hi,
I am looking for a space where I can set up projects like:
clean up a wiki category
set up book scanning tasks
track a survey stages (planning, translation, ad, analysis, etc)
Is phabricator a good place for that? I guess that with appropriate project/subproject separation then the tasks wouldn't be mixed with
coding
tasks.
How is it being done at the WMF?
Cheers,
