Change branch in widgets extension

[eloiferrer]

MaRDI Pull Request

Changes:

• The widgets extension is causing trouble in the XML backup. I suggest using a stable branch for this extension if possible.

Why do we need this extension? I would rather prefer to get rid of this non wmf deployed extension.

I don't really know, you added it three months ago: 7bf0ee3
I am also happy to remove it.

Ah no, this is different from widgets on Wikipedia. This is about including jupyter notebooks. So going to the release branch does seem to be ok. See https://staging.mardi4nfdi.org/wiki/TestWidget for a test.

@eloiferrer if you have this tested locally, could you test if the widget from above works with the rel branch?

As per its Special:Version page, Wikidata uses the Gadgets Extension, and the Merge gadget is amongst those supported this way.

I tested it now with the REL branch and it also works. I am merging this.
