Extension health

Many people comment that pre review takes far too long in the MediaWiki world. The goal of this page is to highlight the state of our projects by analysing recent patchsets, highlighting the oldest one and reporting the average time it is taking for patches to go from being created to getting merged. Ideally we should be striving for pre to get merged or abandoned as soon as possible. These reports are generated by using the GerritCommandLine tool and a shell script. As a caveat, L10n-bot and other bots can skew the average review since typically they get reviewed straight away and thus these are not included in the average.

How you can help

 * Main page: Gerrit/Code review


 * Identify an extension where the average review time is over some kind of acceptable threshold to you - this might be say 7 days - and do some pre review.
 * Review the oldest patch. Help work out whether it should be merged or abandoned. Remember abandoning a patch doesn't mean deleting it – it can always be restored.
 * Abandon any old patches you have lying around in your extensions or that you have written.
 * Via the talk page, let me know if I should be running this tool on any other extensions.
 * Via the talk page, let me know if any of the extensions/skins in the list are not being maintained or deployed
