  • Problem: Wikipedia IFTTT integrations are broken
  • Proposed solution: According to phab:T294448#7584863, the code of the IFTTT service needs to be rewritten
  • Who would benefit: Wikipedia current and potential reader and editor using IFTTT
  • More comments: In 2015, WMF partnered with IFTTT to create a Wikipedia IFTTT channel with a bunch of applets to automate content delivery, e.g. get the word of the day sent to me as a text message, automatically update my Android wallpaper to the featured image of the day, etc. (https://ifttt.com/wikipedia). details see [1]. They are all broken after September 2021.
