Warning
Please watch the results of your actions; do *not* change what you do not understand, and do not re-revert. Discuss if needed, but if I see you re-revert again, you are out of here. Siebrand 21:05, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I perfectly understnad what I did. I did not break any page, and not the English stats. That's something you've not seen: the English stats are still in English and this remains true for other languages as long as they are not localized. I did NOT localize the table itself because I know that the running script that generates it can't handle multiple versions (and I did not want to duplicate this data table because it would not be updated in time).
 * Note also that I did not change the pages that get updated by scripts. As long as they generate absolute links for the subpages (and not relative urls), they are safe for translations. I did not want to break and I did not break anything (not like the revert you did that was partial and did not work in the navigation from within localized templates like Intro. I've made them all work so that they will select the appropriate page in the language according to the current subpage. (Note that the solution using UILANGCODE does not work as expected. This is not a defect of the tempaltes used, but a known bug in MediaWiki's internal management of its page cache). Verdy p 21:22, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * You broke the group statistics again .... GerardM 21:45, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * It did not break ! There's something you've not seen. What is broken ? Verdy p 21:48, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Visibly, you've blocked me even though there was nothing wrong in what I did. And it is still working as expected, using what I wrote.
 * The only case where it broke was when Siebrand reverted one change without understanding it. I've tested everything, and there was no caveat at all in the group statistics using the way I wrote it (so the comment that says that I've "repeatedly broken the software" is compeltely wrong !
 * You have not even given me any place where something I did broke any page. I've done this for the purpose of localisation (and your site notice already says "Annoyed by the English or a fallback language in the Betawiki user interface? It can be localised, of course!". That's exactly what I've done ! Verdy p 23:01, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * You have not even considered the mass of job I've done these last days to fix all the pages related to the localisation of the interface, in order to get the appropriate pages displayed in the appropriate language. I've also removed all the red links on those pages. There's nothing I have broken, but instead lots of things that I have fixed that did not work at all. Verdy p 23:04, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * You are mass changing pages without discussing up front, making them extremely complex (see Niklas's "this is not a programming content" remark), you are disregarding my remark to not re-revert, and indeed, you are breaking pages with URLs that we have communicated for over a year. All three things together are unacceptable in the strongest terms. For that, Gerard blocked you for three days. I expect you to change your behaviour, and re-assess your changes for each page if you decide to return to contributing after your block expires. Failure to do so, will result in permanent removal of your edit rights. Siebrand 07:06, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
 * That was plain wrong, I had not changed any URL to these pages... I had not broken anything myself. This was only an attempt to submit more translations, and was done in the spirit of this site that wants to produce perfect translations for everyone. Sorry to see that apparently your did not want this level of perfection, and contradicted your own aims indicated in this site.
 * Do like you want, but when you are threatening me like this, you don't obey to your own local policies. This site still has sections that could perfectly be translated, and that are not, only because you did not initiate it yourself and don't want others to suggest something else. Of course you can perfectly create another way to translate those sections but just reverting perfectly valid translations and pretending this was an attempt to break things and cause damages to the project was clearly bad, and lacked of basic respect of your gentle contributors.

English source
I saw, you edited some English source messages like MediaWiki:Listgrouprights-addgroup-all/en. Please do not edit the source, I have reverted them all. If you have suggestions for a more proper English messagetext please propose it on Support. They have to be changed in the code directly. Thanks. Raymond 13:42, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
