Is it possible to uninstall MoodBar from it.wikivoyage?
If the itwikivoyage community wants to get rid of it, yes.
[Added URL, changed importance/severity to Low/Enhancement since we're waiting for the discussion to actually take place.] I suggest we give the it.wikivoyage community around two weeks to discuss the issue, and if they decide to remove the extension, we'll take it from there.
Sounds like an easy patch to operations/mediawiki-config/wmf-config/InitialiseSettings.php - see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_access for whoever wants to try (after getting community consensus).
We have briefly discuss and there is unanimity for its removal. (check the link above).

Just for my understanding. Comments 5&6 certify the removal? In the affirmative case, when the moodbar will be effectively removed?
Comment 5 and 6 are patches. Once they have been merged into the codebase they will be available. FYI, for MediaWiki software changes the deployment schedule is available at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.22/Roadmap .
Actually is just one patch, but it's posted twice due to bug 46997.
According to the link posted by Andre, the next deploy should occur on Monday, June 17, 2013. It's correct or I have misunderstood that page? PS Sorry for bugging, it's just for my knowledge :-)
No, it doesn't work that way — the extension will be turned off when this patch gets merged onto the live git repository, which might come in a few hours' or a few days' time depending on the availability of Wikimedia Foundation developers :-)
Got it :-) Thanks a lot for the explanation. I'll let you know when the extension will be turned off.
Haha, there's no need to do that :-) The bot will automatically post a comment to this bug when the change is merged, so we'll immediately know when the extension is turned off. Thanks for the offer though :-)
Maybe I can confirm it twice just like the bug 46997 :-D
One week has passed but the moodbar is still there. Is it normal or something has gone wrong?
The change hasn't yet been merged into the git repository, so we still need to wait. Believe me, you'll get a notification when it is resolved :-)
Tomasz, I'm trusting you that why I'm asking ;-) My doubt has arisen because you said " might come in a few hours' or a few days'" and now we are going in the range of "few weeks'", but it's ok. I'll go in the "keep calm and carry on" mode ;-)))
