I was talking to a French-speaking Quebec contributor editing on frwiki. And they confirmed what I'd never really taken the time to study: discussions are indeed the space where dates are not localized, whereas the rest of the interface is. They told me they do conversions manually, mentally...

I spent a couple hours on this today. Got DiscussionTools working in my localhost dev environment, took a peek at the discussiontools_subscription table in SQL, took a peek at the APIs, and updated some documentation.

It might be useful for people to get a sense for the activity of a page if we also showed at least the "X people are commenting"

GBasha-WMF was looking for a way to find this information, and it occurred to me that it was sort of strange we weren't already exposing it...

@MNeisler: Per emails from Sep18 and Oct20 and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/Assignee_cleanup , I am resetting the assignee of this task because there has not been progress lately (please correct me if I am wrong!). Resetting the assignee avoids the impression that somebody is already working on this task. It also allows others to potentially work towards fixing this task. Please claim this task again when you plan to work on it (via Add Action... → Assign / Claim in the dropdown menu) - it would be welcome. Thanks for your understanding!

Just in case anyone else needs ins/del. I later discovered that this only works in VoiceOver due to the usage of the title= attribute. Without that attribute it ignores ins and del. I have no idea why. It doesn't make much sense. It could be an implementation error on the VoiceOver side.

Also confirming that del/ins are read by JAWS and NVDA. Tested both with Firefox and Chrome. I'll close this task as resolved.

Are these numbers for all projects and languages combined, minus those that use ENOM?

@AlexisJazz Yes, that's correct

Looks great; thank you, @MNeisler. Per what we talked about offline today, we'll look at edit completion and abandonment rates in T313279.

I'm assigning this task over to Megan to verify the newly-instrumented events are being logged as expected server-side.

I can confirm this. Just tested and ins and del now work on iOS, but not yet on macOS (although I haven't updated to the new macOS major version yet, so maybe it works in the new major version).
