Apologies for being pissed off but please as always
assume good faith. My team has to manage various extensions and I'm trying to 
set expectations and clear out a backlog of patches. Sadly written 
communication doesn't always come across as it should. I should be pissed off 
given my team has been told to work on a bunch of extensions it has had no 
prior involvement in but I'm trying to manage this as best as I can.

I have reviewed the patch in question from @prtskana but it would be 
irresponsible for me to merge it until something consumes it and ensures its 
future proofness and quality, so no let's get this right first time rather than 
merge it just in case. YAGNI [1]

No one was even bothering to review it so to be honest it's not quite fair to 
give me stick for caring and giving this attention. My asks are not huge here.

That patch you point to says "do not merge". I have no idea if it solves the 
problem referred to in this card. The patch in question has no tests and the 
author is not working on hovercards so sorry but you're being unfair here too.

Since the bug refers to wikidata anyone involved in the wikidata project would 
be a natural candidate to work on this given they know that code well.

By all means if a gadget is dying to make use of it please show me one so I can 
test this and prove it's usefulness.
