Hello.
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/mediawiki-extensions-vectorbeta/ contains 21 open tasks of which
* 13 are not tagged with any other open project * 3 are not tagged by anything but yellow tags (= no projects, teams, goals, releases...) * 1 is tagged Wikimedia-General-or-Unknown
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/compact-personal-bar-beta/ contains 21 open tasks of which
* 11 are not tagged with any other open project * 3 are not tagged by anything but yellow tags (= no projects, teams, goals, releases...) * 1 is tagged Wikimedia-General-or-Unknown
(17 of these tasks are tagged with both of these archived projects, so the real total of tasks in both projects is 25.)
Because I don't know details about these two projects and their archiving, I would like to ask whoever relevant to perform some cleanup, which means one or both of following actions:
* tag the task with any open project (except for generic "Wikimedia-General- or-Unknown" or "MediaWiki-General-or-Unknown: or such), team, goal or release * close the task with appropriate resolution
Thank you for helping to keep Phabricator swept.
Kind regards

Hi Danny B,
Thanks for the note. VectorBeta is technically under Reading Web https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Component_responsibility. We'll need to do a sweep of the VectorBeta board as you suggest.

After checking all these tasks, it seems all these tasks can be declined as this project is no longer maintained.

Does unmaintained mean it's deprecated and can be archived? We've got lots of extensions that don't have a maintainer...doesn't mean the bugs that exist in them aren't there :)

I haven't probably mention it explicitely in the original email - those two projects *are* already archived.
The deal was that those projects contained several open tasks tagged only with those archived projects, which makes those tasks almost undiscoverable. (The rest is in the original email...)

My question was more about the extensions themselves and their underlying repositories. Just because they're not deployed and nobody at WMF cares about them doesn't mean they're *dead*
If they are, that's cool, but if not then there's not much reason to close out the tasks (or the Phab projects either, tbh) :)

I archived the phab projects last year.[1] IIRC I did so thinking that would be helpful to avoid bugs/tasks being assigned to somewhere they might not be seen, or in the wrong #tag altogether. Sorry if I erred. Revert freely. [1] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/manage/742/#13354 and https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/manage/979/#13350
WikiApiary suggests there are 6 users of VectorBeta, however only 1 site (EagleWiki) actually seems to be alive: https://wikiapiary.com/wiki/Extension:VectorBeta
Some of the features themselves (CPB and Fixed Header, in particular) were liked by many users. It would be nice to re-examine them in the future.
