I cannot proceed converting the previously existing talk pages on my wiki until this is done.

I don't see how this prevents you from doing anything; you could create the templates that this script would create manually.

Priority reflects reality not wishes. Also what @Pppery said.

@Jidanni Could you give us the URL of your wiki so we can run this on your wiki for now?

Thanks. This is a page on the wiki with the problem that you can observe if running the script fixes.

Alas, it appears the script had no effect...

You've run into https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T125857 (Flow boards don't respond to template updates unless they are edited). I've fixed the problem by making a dummy edit to the board header and then reverting that edit, and it does now appear to include a link a a wikitext archive.

OK, I have converted half of my Talk pages, but can't figure out ( https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T251717 ) a better way to finish the job other than one by one pasting their names into that Special:EnableStructuredDiscussions box and clicking Submit. After which I also need to run it on all my User Talk pages. Anybody got a better way? Thanks.

RhinosF1 assigned this task to Reception123.

I've ran the script

RhinosF1 added a subscriber: John.

Ah, we need to run it automatically. I wonder if we can have ManageWiki run maint scripts on install?

@John: is that possible

Yes, this has been possible since May 2019 using a mwscript option inside install

Anybody have a better way to solve https://phabricator.miraheze.org/T5504#107946 other than one by one entering their name into the box...?
