Investigate: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/EventStreams

Right now I'm researching mw-bot (source).

Code for a similar recentchanges output:

Waiting on a response to issue 62 to add a new wiki to the bot's @recentchanges command.

• Property:Has GPG fingerprint

Close all open discussions in the Handbook namespace

As I continue to clean up our docs in 2017, I am rapidly working to close out all open discussions in the Handbook namespace. Will move this section to Completed tasks when finished.

Someone please work on these. Someone. ANYONE?! PLEASE!!

• GitLab - Clean up article: meld it into proper article layout/formatting according to wiki Guidelines, review for correctness.
  • Work on bringing GitLab to Gentoo. This would be of use to infra as a GitHub fall back (since GitHub isn't nicely open source).
  • Start with a Gentoo-based container (if necessary), and build from there.
