If this question is for me, my answer is yes. I put two links in my description to answer the question.
We exist more than 3 years: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Affiliations_Committee/Resolutions/Recognition_of_Wikimedians_of_United_Arab_Emirates_User_Group

And we have the annual grants 3 consecutive years, here is the last one : https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Programs/Wikimedia_Community_Fund/General_Support_Fund/Annual_Grant_of_the_UAE_User_Group_2024#cite_note-fixedrate-1

Okay, two notes:

• The domain should be: ae.wikimedia.org, we use country's TLD for the chapters (or UGs that will promote to chapters eventually)
• I don't think it's feasible to install that many extensions. We create it with default ones and then for each specific need, create a ticket to be installed if/when the need arises.

e.g. if the wiki is fishbowl, installing SpamBlacklist won't give you any benefit.

• Yes, ok for ae.wikimedia.org
• And ok for the extensions, but can you install Translate and VisualEditor please , the rest I will ask in different tickets

@Zabe it seems we were missing the "storage layer" task we usually get. Anyway, this is done on our side.

@BTullis @fnegri remains the views creation. Note, I'm not sure how to take account of an-redacteddb1001 in that whole procedure. Please let me know if I have to integrate it somewhere.

The other subtasks that normally get auto-created are also not here. Seems like a bug of the ticket-creating bot/script.

@ABran-WMF, @fnegri - I believe that we are ready to run the sre.wikireplicas.add-wiki cookbook for this wiki, which should make it available on both clouddb* and an-redacteddb1001 hosts.
Are you happy for us (myself and @Stevemunene ) to run that now, or is there anything else that either of you feels need be done first?

I believe that an-redacteddb1001 will be automatically included in the process, because it is included in the A:wikireplicas-all cumin alias.

btullis@cumin1002:~$ sudo cumin A:wikireplicas-all
10 hosts will be targeted:
an-redacteddb1001.eqiad.wmnet,clouddb[1013-1021].eqiad.wmnet

...but I'm keen that we all got a good view on what happens.
