I know it has been annoying a couple of people other than me, so now that I've learned how to make it work I'll share the knowledge here.
tl;dr: Star the repositories. No, seriously. (And yes, you need to star each extension repo separately.)
(Is there a place on mw.org to put this tidbit on?)

Hi Bartosz
In order to link your commits to your GitHub account, you need to have some association with the repository other than authoring the commit. Usually, having push access gives you that connection. In this case, you don't have push permission, so we don't link you to the commit.
The easy solution here is for you to star the repository. If you star it - along with the other repositories that are giving you this problem - we'll see that you're connected to the repository and you'll get contribution credit for those commits.
Cheers
Brian

I'm not familiar with bluejeans and maybe have missed a transition
because I wasn't paying enough attention. is this some kind of
experiment? have all meetings transitioned to this service?
anyway, my immediate question at the moment is how do you join without
sharing your microphone and camera?
am I correct thinking that this is an entirely proprietary stack
that's neither gratis nor libre and has no on-premise (not cloud)
hosting option? are we paying for this?

Hi folks,
Based on comments that I received on Wikimedia-l, I would like to invite
people to a casual online meetup one hour before the monthly WMF Metrics
and Activities Meeting.
There will be no set agenda. You can come with questions or ideas that you
would like to discuss. Please be willing to listen to questions and ideas
from other Wikimedians.
I will host the meeting with the Zoom software. You can join with software
or by using your phone. If you join by phone then your phone number will be
visible to other participants.
The primary language of the meeting will be English, but if people would
like to communicate in diverse languages then that is okay too. We can
facilitate translation by text chat. Many Wikimedians, myself included, are
multilingual in varying degrees, so we might try to have live
interpretation also.
Here is information about how to connect:
Join from PC, Mac, Linux, iOS or Android: https://zoom.us/j/136978210
Or iPhone one-tap :

Meeting ID: 136 978 210
International numbers available: https://zoom.us/u/ekaPibJIy
The first "Wikimedia Café" meetup will be on 30 August 2018, at 17:00 UTC /
10:00 Pacific.
Let me emphasize that the environment won't be like this
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:West_Hartford,_Connecticut_health_care_r…>,
so please don't feel intimated if you are nervous about public speaking.
(If a conversation feels to me like it is becoming uncivil or intimidating,
then I will ask the debaters to quiet themselves or to move to somewhere
else.) The meeting will generally have an environment that is more like this
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Caf%C3%A9_M%C3%A9lange,_Wien.jpg> or
this
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Takamatsu-Castle-Building-Interior-M3488…>.
I anticipate that few people will come, which is okay. I hope that if you
come then you will enjoy the environment and conversation.
Until next time,
Pine

Hello,
tag_summary table was introduced in 2009 as a roll up table for change_tag.
One of the reasons it was being used was that MySQL databases that were
using earlier versions of 4.1 (Released at 15 February 2005) could not use
GROUP_CONCAT feature.
Around five years ago, developers started to replace usages of tag_summary
with change_tag primarily because GROUP_CONCAT became available then and it
most cases it was faster. For example [1] but it wasn't done fully which
led us to having discrepancies. For example, Special:RecentChanges uses
change_tag table but its API counterpart uses tag_summary table.
Maintaining two extremely large tables is a technical debt that have been
biting us since its deployment. Also, with normalization of change_tag
table in place [2], it's more performant than tag_summary.
So we are replacing usages of this table with change_tag and in the next
couple of weeks, and then we will drop the whole table. If you're using it
in cloud replicas, please change it to change_tag. If you have any concerns
or notes, feel free to chime in at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T209525
(Also, review of the patches would be extremely appreciated)
Thank you and sorry for any inconvenience.

I've been meaning to document this for a while.
If you're finding yourself visiting Special:Export/Import often for the
purpose of MediaWiki development there is a much better way to get content
into your local wiki for testing purposes.
This short video explains how MobileFrontend extension provides tooling to
help you debug live on-wiki content via $wgMFContentProviderClass [1]

Hope it saves someone lots of time!
