Some of these have been in the default branch for a while, add in the rest. Drop, update, or swap to submodules of upstream as appropriate
aside from the gcpedia/wiki skin tweaks and the saml / openid auth extensions, the set of gcpedia extensions is a superset of the gcwiki ones
there are 4 custom extensions that will need to be updated or partially rewritten to work properly with the latest version of mediawiki and just overall be easier to maintain further:
~[ ] GC_tcDisclaimer~
~[ ] ROTedits~ - was only used for a specific cleanup exercise years ago and not really relevant now, will probably need a re-write if we ever need something like it again
[x] awards
[x] EmailUpdate
[x] customUserCreateForm - this was technically based on an extension we didn't write at first, but by now the vast majority gcpedia specific and the one that inspired it has long since been abandoned, so might as well finish that us and rewrite it as gcpediaUserCreateForm
~mwSimpleSamlAuth~ is no longer supported, might be a good time to consider dropping support in and eventually use openid auth like gcwiki
video extensions:
[x] gctools-outilsgc/gcpedia#187 - this is no longer maintained, this is a good chance to figure out if we want to keep it or not. It currently pre-populates a user's user page with an empty profile-like template. If we keep this functionality it can be re-written as a fork of the NewUserMessage extension which does almost the same thing.
