If you really wanted, and your extension is not deployed to Wikimedia wikis, I think it could be done if you requested it on Phabricator. There are definitely repositories where the "normal" +2 reviewers (able to +2/-2 patches in mediawiki/core and extensions) do not have access (e.g. operations/mediawiki-config). But I'm not sure how it is implemented technically, the reviewers' righs might apply to the "mediawiki/* namespace"? in which case it could be a problem to change it for one repo. In this particular case though, Chad is a Gerrit administrator, so he would be able to merge the patch anyway. I don't think this problem calls for a technical solution. -- Matma Rex _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
