Hi.
In the context of https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10621,

It's not a test case after you've run action=purge on it.
Which is why I didn't bother including the URLs in the initial report.
If you want
to report things like this, it's best if you don't run action=purge,

Brian, would you take a look at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_report_a_bug and maybe update it
to clarify what sorts of information to try to hold on to for debugging
purposes?

We appreciate the bug report, we just can't do anything about it
without more information. To give a (not entirely fair) comparison,

Sorry for digging up an old thread, but today I also started wondering
if there's a way of making our deployments simpler and faster.
I'm not a big fan of special highly orchestrated events when the whole
team gathers and waits and then looks for regressions after deploying
dozens of commits
I am strongly of the opinion that within broad ranges deployment frequency
does not matter. It really does not matter if you deploy twice an hour or
every second day.
But, having the machinery to make it so that you could deploy twice an hour
if you wanted to is all kinds of valuable.

What is the number of the new namespace we got from Scribunto?
How can we localize the name of it? In huwiki it should be Modul rather
than Module. We found only core namespaces in translatewiki.
Thank you!
