Gerard,

It's a pilot, so it's not available for other wikis yet. If we receive
community feedback that indicates that the resource is welcome and is being
used, we will definitely lobby for making this resource available for all
wikis, on a long-term basis.

If you would like to see this resource maintained, experiment with it and
provide feedback

!

Best,
Jonathan
