Hello everyone! Just a quick update on Structured Data on Commons
deployments.
You may have noticed that we haven't deployed Depicts statements yet
yesterday, and this is due to an unrelated bug.
The release has been rescheduled to upcoming Tuesday.

Cheers! Sandra

Unfortunately the release was blocked by an unrelated bug [1], and must be
rescheduled. Releases are not done on Fridays, so the team has \rescheduled
for Tuesday, 23 April from 15:00-16:00 UTC [2]. I'll continue to keep the
community posted as release approaches.
