--- Comment #9 from James Forrester <jforres...@wikimedia.org> --- (In reply to comment #8) > my intention was not to offend or attack, it was to draw attention that, to > the best of my understanding, hiding the user option did not actually address > the actual bug. The 'actual' bug was, effectively, that "the temporary description of a temporary configuration option does not automatically expand based on a different configuration variable's setting". However, the cause for complaint was "the temporary description of a temporary configuration option on MW.org is wrong and confusing", you are correct. > i think that bug 51411 you created is perfect, and once it's fixed/addressed, > everything will be fine. It's exceedingly unlikely to be addressed, because (a) programmatic writing of human-readable descriptions is very delicate and not something we generally do, and (b) as we have said a great many times, this is about a configuration variable that exists purely for the duration of the alpha, to provide a way to "opt in". Availability of VE is a system-level configuration, not a user-level preference. By the time the software is actually marked for release by anyone outside WMF (when we remove the "here be dragons" labels), the underlying issue will be moot. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
