I understand the reasons behind the decision and accept that this probably had to be done. But the communication policy has been extremely poor. Two years were the deadline given by the EU to meet the GDPR, and we get notified of this decision 4 days before it's effective.

No time to adapt our templates, infoboxes and other content that was designed with Monobook in mind and that might not fit with the Oasis skin. It is evident that now the deadline is imminent and cannot be delayed, but there was really margin to advance such a relevant decision.

This service is not just the engineers and the company behind it, which makes a lot and we're grateful for the efforts, it's also the content creators that put effort every day in making useful and entertaining content. This people is also doing efforts to adapt the content and the designs to the platform, and they also need their time to make sure everything will work properly for such a big change. Definitely not something that we should be warned about 4 days in advance, knowing that there was much more time to get it ready.

We'll cope with it, but I do have to express my disappointment with the communication regarding this issue.
