Hi Szymon, thanks for preparing the message! https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Translations:Tech/Server_switch_2020/11/en should be updated to use CEST instead of CET (not sure about the other zones). Also it should say Wednesday June 30, not 29. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Translations:Tech/Server_switch_2020/11/qqq should be updated.

Hello, On June 29, all traffic from all wikis will be switched to the secondary data center (like we did in 2020). *All wikis will be in read-only mode on June 29 around 14:00 UTC*. A message to inform our communities has been written, to be sent to wikis: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/Server_switch_2020 Please don't bother with the page title. We may move the page to [[m:Tech/Serwer switch]] and if we do, we'll leave a redirect so the link above will be working. As for the content of the message, we have kept the previous messages, and made small changes. Please review all messages. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis. Please inform your communities about this event!

Hi, The correct Unix Timestamp is 1624975200 ( for the link behind the time), which makes 16:00 CEST.

Ignore that as I was referring to the below message on translate wiki, but it seems to be redundant. They will switch all traffic back to the primary data center on '''Tuesday, October 27 2020'''.[1] Thanks, Dhaval Vyas [1] https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&showMess… On Fri, 18 Jun 2021 at 11:06, Dhaval S.

is the "server switch 2020" a correct page for this year's test? While translating messages in Gujarati, the proposed date and time appears to be of 2020 instead of 2021. On Fri, 18 Jun 2021 at 08:07, Remko de Keijzer <remko(a)remkodekeijzer.nl> wrote:

Thank you all! I've marked Krinkle's version for translation. I encourage you to double-check if translations into the languages you speak are correct. I'd like to send the message to the communities on Thursday 24 evening European time at latest. Regarding your question Dhaval, this sentence only appears in the translation view. I've "commented" (hidden) it from the reader's view, and won't send it to the communities.

I've fixed the timestamp link to be this year instead of last year (1624975200), and updated the various timezones. My edit is awaiting translation approval. -- Timo On Fri, Jun 18, 2021 at 11:30 AM Dhaval S. Vyas <dsvyas(a)gmail.com> wrote:
