tl;dr: The deployment calendar format will change in 2 weeks (2021-04-05) to make it easier to edit with visual editor https://w.wiki/a3b
I updated the deployment calendar for the week of 2021-04-05[0] to use a different format than in the past (compare to next week[1]). My hope is that this new format will make it much easier to schedule deployment windows and to schedule patches for backports using Visual Editor.
Also, selfishly, less squinting at Wikitext for me :)
All credit for the new format goes to Timo Tijhof. Thank you Timo!
Thanks all! -- Tyler

It looks interesting and modern. I can say that I like it.
Best regards, Zoran
Yesssss
I don’t personally care much about using VE on this page (yet), but having section-edit links for each day seems much better than having to find the right slot in a whole week’s worth of wikitext.

Tyler,
Thank you very much for the change! I don't use the visual editor for mediawiki.org, but I think the new format will also make editing it easier for everyone, by editing easily single day schedules.
Thank you a lot!
