Yeah, the local CSS/JS cruft is definitely a

clean-up on a few wikis, but I usually just get chewed out by the local
admins for not discussing every change in detail (which obviously
doesn't scale for fixing 200+ wikis). I would love to hear ideas for how
to address this problem.
This caught my eye as Wikimedia has far more than 200 wikis. There seems to
be a shift happening within the Wikimedia Foundation. The sister projects
have routinely been ignored in the past, but things seem to be going further
lately....
The good thing about forgotten/abandoned/unloved/etc. projects is that
they probably don't have lots of cruft accumulated in the global CSS/JS
files (as they require quite lively tech-savvy community to maintain them).
So those sites will not probably require any changes and will survive
HTML5 migration without any problems.
