Description

Background

Generally this namespace does not have problems as it is used for interface messages which are text only. Sometimes it is used to render templates, so it would be useful for editors to see these broken in night theme and enable.
e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Revreview-draft-title

Some have easy to fix bugs that are currently not obvious since it's disabled:

@Jdlrobson even though it wasn't tested yet, beta seems to work but not prod. Did you want me to remove this task from the wmf 9 deployment or just put a grey box saying it's not assigned or will be taken care of on the next deployment?
