+**A written process alone is unlikely to be sufficient to navigate through many
+complexities. Please use this template as guidance with steps to take when
+deprecating functionality, but not as an exhaustive list designed to generate
+positive outcomes every time. Deprecations are often nuanced in their impact and
+the approach needed may not be fully covered in this template.**
+
+---
+
+### Deprecation Summary
+
+_Add a brief description of the feature or functionality that is deprecated.
+Clearly state the potential impact of the deprecation to end users._
+
+#### Documentation
+
+- Deprecation notice: [add link](here)
+- Migration guidelines: [add link](here)
+- etc.
+
+#### Reasons
+
+\_Describe why deprecation of this feature is necessary
+
+- [add links to the documentation](here) - i.e. Decision-Matrix, etc.
+
+### Breaking Change?
+
+<!-- If the change includes removing functionality, which nearly all deprecations do, then it needs to be tracked as a breaking change. If user workflows rely on it to function, then removing it will break them. -->
+
+Does this deprecation contain a breaking change? `Yes / No`
+
+<!-- If yes:
+- Add the ~"breaking change" label to this issue.
+- Add instructions for how users can update their workflow.
+- After creating this issue, add an Internal Note in the comments below to document the pros and cons of this change and why we are choosing to make a breaking change. Answer the following:
+   - What migration paths are available?
+   - Describe tradeoffs between the migration paths taking into account customer, financial, technical or operational impact?
+   - Are there different migration path options for different users? (ex. available for ultimate users, but not free users?)
+   - Are there external requirements that we need to meet that restrict our available options?
+   - Consider the information you will also be adding in the "Affected Customers" section - this will impact how you plan for migration alternatives.
+ -->
+
+<!--
+/label ~"breaking change"
+-->
+
+### Affected Users
+
+Who is affected by this deprecation: GitLab.com users, Self-managed users, or
+Dedicated users? (choose all that apply)
+
+- [ ] GitLab.com
+- [ ] Self-managed
+- [ ] Dedicated
+
+### Deprecation Milestone
+
+This deprecation will be announced in milestone: `xx.xx` _If this deprecation
+has already been announced, include information about when the initial
+announcement went out and what follow-up announcements are scheduled._
+
+### Planned Removal Milestone
+
+The feature / functionality will be removed in milestone: `xx.xx`
+
+### Links
+
+<!--
+Add links to any relevant documentation or code that will provide additional details or clarity regarding the planned change.
+
+This issue is the main SSOT for the deprecations and removals process. Be sure to link all
+issues and MRs related to this deprecation/removal to this issue. This can include removal
+issues that were created ahead of time, and the MRs doing the actual deprecation/removal work.
+-->
+
+### Checklists
+
+#### Timeline
+
+#### Communication Plan
+
+- DRI Product Manager: `@PM`
+
+An internal slack post and a release post are not sufficient notification for
+our customers or internal stakeholders. Plan to communicate proactively and
+directly with affected customers and the internal stakeholders supporting them.
+
+Internal Communication Plan
+
+- [ ] Internal announcement plan (timeline for notifications, audience,
+      channels, etc)
+
+External Communication Plan
+
+- [ ] User announcement plan (timeline for notifications, audience, channels,
+      etc)
+  - [ ] Documentation has been updated to mark the feature as `deprecated`. _Add
+        link to the relevant merge request._
+- [ ] On the major milestone:
+  - [ ] The deprecated item has been removed. _Add link to the relevant merge
+        request._
+  - [ ] If the removal of the deprecated item is a
+        [breaking change](https://docs.gitlab.com/update/terminology/#breaking-change),
+        the merge request is labeled ~"breaking change".
+  - [ ] Document the migration plan for users, clearly outlining the actions
+        they need to take to mitigate the impact of the breaking change.
+    - [ ] [Add link](here)

+#### Labels

+
+- [ ] This issue is labeled ~deprecation, and with the relevant `~group::`, and

+
+## Hypothesis
+
+<!-- The hypothesis represents the high-level thought process in creating the experiment but does not need to be proven in one experiment. For example, you could have a hypothesis that “users would benefit from more easily being able to have a one-click-sandbox” and your first experiment could fail, that doesn’t void your hypothesis only indicates you may need to think of a new iterative experiment that would still align with your hypothesis. -->

+## Supporting data
+
+<!-- Why should we run this experiment? Why do you belive your Hypothesis to be true? -->
+
+## Expected outcome
+
+<!-- What is the expected outcome of this experiment, what metric are we trying to move? Are there any metrics we know we do not want to impact? -->
+
+## Experiment design & implementation
+
+<!-- What is the experiment we’re going to run? -->
+
+## Known assumptions
+
+<!-- This is an area to call out known assumptions in the experiment, this is especially helpful for any future colleagues that join the team so they understand other potential influences and how they were accounted for. This section is also helpful in framing possible scenarios and to keep the door open for the next steps. For example, we’re hoping our experiment will ... but we’re assuming .... This is a known assumption and depending on the results of the experiment could impact the direction we take on any future iterations. -->
+
+## Results, lessons learned, next steps
+
+<!-- What were the results of the experiment? Was the experiment a success or a failure? Based on the results should we remove the code or advocate that it become a permanent part? Are there future experiments to run based off these results (include a link to new issue)? For example, our trial experiment was successful we ... but saw ....

+      filled in through time (the "Result, learnings, next steps" section for

+## Checklist
+
+Es ist eine gute Idee die sich ändernden Punkte in ein Release-Template zu
+kopieren.
+
+- [ ] **Zielklärung:** Ist der Zweck der Software klar benannt und der
+      wissenschaftliche _Need_ begründet? (Falls nein, ergänzen: _Warum
+      existiert dieses Tool?_)
+- [ ] **Installation & Voraussetzungen:** Sind alle Schritte, um die Software
+      lauffähig zu machen, dokumentiert (inkl. Dependencies, evtl. mit
+      Installationsbefehlen)? Ist ersichtlich, welche Umgebung nötig ist (OS,
+      Hardware)?
+- [ ] **Grundlegende Nutzung:** Gibt es eine Anleitung oder Beispiele, wie man
+      die Software verwendet (Eingabe -> Ausgaben)? Ist mindestens ein typischer
+      Workflow beschrieben, idealerweise mit Beispielinput und -output?
+- [ ] **Optionen & Schnittstellen:** Falls relevant – sind alle wichtigen
+      Funktionen, Befehlsoptionen oder API-Methoden dokumentiert? (Nicht
+      unbedingt jede intern, aber alles, was ein Nutzer aufrufen könnte). Für
+      APIs: Sind Parameter und Rückgaben erläutert?
+- [ ] **Validierung & Einschränkungen:** Werden Annahmen und Grenzen der
+      Software genannt? Weiß ein*e Nutzer*in, welche Fälle nicht abgedeckt sind
+      oder worauf zu achten ist (z. B. Datenqualität, maximale Größen)?
+      Transparenz hier verhindert Frustration.
+- [ ] **Hintergrund & Referenzen:** Sind die wichtigsten konzeptionellen
+      Hintergründe oder Referenzen angegeben? (Z. B. theoretische Grundlagen,
+      Algorithmen, Literaturverweise). Das muss kein Essay sein, aber ein paar
+      Sätze + Referenzen schaffen Vertrauen in die wissenschaftliche Fundierung.
+- [ ] **Kontakt & Weiterführung:** Ist angegeben, wie man Hilfe bekommt oder
+      Fehler melden kann (Issue-Tracker, E-Mail)? Gibt es Hinweise für Beiträge
+      (falls erwünscht) oder zumindest die Information, wer die Autor\*innen
+      sind?
+- [ ] **Rechtliches & Zitation:** Liegt die Lizenz bei und wird sie genannt?
+      Sind Infos zum Zitieren der Software vorhanden (z. B. “Bitte zitieren Sie
+      DOI XYZ”)? Das stellt sicher, dass die Software nachnutzbar _und_
+      akademisch kreditiert wird.
+- [ ] **Aktualität & Version:** Entspricht die Dokumentation der aktuellen
+      Softwareversion? (Check: Versionsnummern, Datumsangaben). Veraltete Doku
+      kann schlimmer sein als keine – planen Sie also ein, die Doku mit jedem
+      Release kurz zu überprüfen.
+- [ ] **Konsistenz & Stil:** Wird ein einheitlicher Ton und Stil durchgehalten?
+      (z. B. durchgehende Verwendung gleicher Begriffe für Konzepte, Sprache
+      entweder Deutsch oder Englisch einheitlich je nach Zielgruppe). Kleinliche
+      Fehler (Tippfehler, kaputte Links) sind auszumerzen, da sie Nutzer
+      abschrecken.
