Hello
We have wikis that will be in read-only this week and (that's new) next week. Please read this message carefully.
*== May 7 - a lot wikis and CentralAuth ==* This is a reminder.
A maintenance operation will be performed on Thursday 7th April at 05:00 AM UTC. It impacts a lot of wikis (s3 and s7 groups, including mediawikiwiki and metawiki), for 15 minutes. The lists are on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T251157
It also impacts CentralAuth-based services, as previously detailed.
*== May 12 - Commons ==*
It will happen on Tuesday 12th May at 05:00 AM UTC, for 15 minutes. Details on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T251502
A banner will be displayed on concerned wikis 30 minutes before each operation. However, it is always better to have these news being known, so please help make your community aware of these maintenance operations!
Thank you for your help, Benoît

Hello Kaartic,
I understand the impact of the other two maintenance operations. I'm a
little confused about this one. You initially say this affects some wikis and give a list. But in the end you say, "This will affect all wikis". IIUC, you intend to say that as CentralAuth-based services are affected the impact might be (indirectly) observed on all wikis. Is that correct?
Yes, I think that you're right.
Yes, it is correct. Wikis I listed will be in read-only, all other wikis may see some disturbance.
Thanks for the clarifications!
FYI, I've spread the announcements to the following communities:
- enwiki
- enwiktionary
- tawiki
- tawiktionary (translated Trizek's announcement)
- metawiki
Thank you for asking this. I always like to see someone asking if something is unclear!
Benoît
