Removing Project-Admins as Phab cleanup part was done. This should be under Projects-Cleanup instead and ideally follow its template if applicable.

I just talked to @Tobi_WMDE_SW and invalidated all tickets with the Catgraph tag. We also decided on archiving the tag.

For your information, the gadget is already gone via T243101: Remove DeepCat gadget on Wikipedia(s). I went to the DeepCat-Gadget board and closed all remaining tickets. Most of them as "declined", because the code of the gadget does not exist any more.

Deleted on German Wikipedia as well.

DeepCat is now removed from Commons.

I requested the removal from de.wikipedia and commons where the gadget was made available. I also checked for other wikis looking at the usage data, but there seems to be none. Waiting for the admins to take action now.

If it's broken anyway, we can straight away pull the plug. Showing an alert() or something similar is rather pointless if there is nothing the user can do, except disabling the gadget. We are able to do this for the users by removing it from https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition. Some users will still have a boolean flag in their configuration, but this flag won't do anything anymore.

Uh, why? Isn't the gadget obsolete ever since the deepcategory: feature exists? I believe it does make sense to start showing a deprecation warning now, before the Catgraph servers are actually gone.

Note, that changes here should not be deployed before end of January ^^'
