Hi all,
We have removed the developer account signup from Wikitech and are now
directing new users towards
https://idm.wikimedia.org instead.
This is the first step in the implementation of our new identity manager,
and a small step towards making Wikitech a little less special.
Part of our documentation was updated yesterday, August 30th, and the first
accounts have already been successfully created.
Should there be a need to re-enable the account creation process on
Wikitech, this can be done by reverting:
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/mediawiki-config/+/952209/
If you have any questions, concerns or documentation that needs updating,
please reach out to me or the infrastructure foundation team.
Thank you to everyone who helped us get this far.
