I have deleted the two remaining pieces:

Remaining two items will need to be done by somebody with proper access.

@D3r1ck01 Will Educational Program namespaces be deleted in projects where EP was installed? For example, ruwiki, EP namespaces still exist (but its localization already gone).

Yes @MBH, we'll clean those up as well. I see related things in mediawiki-config, see links below;

• https://github.com/wikimedia/operations-mediawiki-config/blob/master/wmf-config/InitialiseSettings.php#L18686

Talking about Flow is off topic, please move it to another task

@D3r1ck01 It "is still very valid and is highly used" not in big wikis like enwiki, commons, ruwiki, where it recognized as unusable disaster, which makes using history, reverting vandals and complex multilevel discussions impossible. As far as I know, WMF abandoned an idea to force every project use Flow, its new idea to simplify discussions (presented on last Wikimania) is JS script over normal talk pages. I'm interested, can this NS and extension be completely removed from ruwiki (local consensus exists)?

@D3r1ck01 It's off-topic, but maybe you know answer. Will "Topic" namespace from cancelled Flow extension be deleted in projects, that were use it, too?
