This feature was available at the old edit boxes, at the new pop-up ones it doesn't...

Whenever I try to edit translation the edit box is LTR aligned by default and I can't change it (using Chrome, Firefox and IE does support that)

Also the suggestions appear as LTR even if they are RTL I use suggestions from Arabic and Google translation, they both appear to the opposite direction, if there's English somewhere in the string the text gets all mixed up and that's a shame...

I can send screenshots or stylesheet for Stylish to demonstrate my complaint

Kind regards,

If you have any suggestions of how to build this into our JavaScript, we would be happy to accommodate. If you are not able yourself, please help us by finding a developer able to implement this; they would be most welcome.

That's not a file that should be imported. Please use smaller message groups.

hi, running two separate instances of Special:ImportTranslations interfere with each other, the output of one process appears in the other. I would assume that some type of session key will need to be introduced to solve this issue.

Patches are welcome; developer time is really, really precious at the moment.

Hi Siebrand, I would love to help. My idea would be to setup a GIT import, not a webpage one. The git import would just pull versions from a repo and import them. I would be willing to work on that. mike

Please discuss with Niklas/Nikerabbit on IRC. This has kind of a spaghetti aspect, I think. I especially do not like the access distribution.

I have just had the following internal error when trying to save one translation. Maybe you should check it.

• Note: I was trying to translate this message: User block.revoke.past.

Niklas made a little judgement error and experimented with a different YAML parser... OUCH.

I've seen today that the message group "Upload Wizard" doesn't exist more. Is this an error or intended?

Taken offline while rework is being done.

What is file mover a user who moves files or a tool for moving files?

It is a new user group on Wikimedia Commons. Users with this right may move files.

Thanks.

The questionnaire for Beta and New features uses the same 3 possible answers to the question 'why are you leaving the Beta?'/'Why are you turning off the new features?', in Prefswitch-survey-answer-whyoff-hard ("The features were too hard to use."), Prefswitch-survey-answer-whyoff-didntwork ("The features did not function properly.") and Prefswitch-survey-answer-whyoff-notpredictable ("The features did not perform predictably."). But the answers should be in the singular for Beta and plural for new features. Even in English they look a bit off.

 Done mwr:66541.

Incidentally, shouldn't these have been fuzzied?

I don't think it was enough reason to fuzzy.

Hi, I have done a bunch of translations and would like someone to review them. it there a way to mark all my edits as to be reviewed and track the review process? thanks, mike

You can write !!FUZZY!! at the beginning of a translation, with something like 'for review' in the edit summary. On review, the reviewer removes the !!FUZZY!! mark. You can track the reviews through the 'Language translations' link to recent changes in your language, in the sidebar or by viewing 'review changes to' in the translation tool. Have you already arranged with another translator in your language to review your translations?

Should use Watchlistedit-normal-submit ("Remove titles") for the button label to always be up to date.

 Done with mwr:66640

Privacy policy is already required by law in some countries, and not having one gives a bad impression. I think quite basic one will do it. Anybody willing to help with it?

I found a privacy policy at a befriended foundation, and copied and adapted it into a draft at Project:Privacy_policy. Input welcome. I have started out with the original version, so feel free to observe the differences and scrutinise which loopholes we will create compared to the - as far as I know - mostly undisputed privacy policy of the befriended foundation.

Should we drop the CheckUser references since we don't use it, or do we want to keep it as an option?

I deliberately left it in to keep the way open for future usage. Open for discussion, as far as I'm concerned, but I think putting it in later might cause more trouble than having it in now, and staying consistent with the befriended foundation's policy .

Char inserting from area at bottom of editor window is not working. I'm using Vector skin on Firefox 3.6.4.

The new toolbar has also its own character map that should work.

Please report software bugs in bugzilla:. Thanks.

Works for me with Chrome and Firefox anyway.

In Searchranktracker-entry-list ("List of tracking wiki pages"), what does "List of tracking wiki pages" mean? Is it the list of wiki pages returned by the search engines, for the search terms specified?

According to discussion at Thread:Portal talk:Ja/名前空間の翻訳、そろそろ再開しましょう, we decided to change Japanese namespace names of MediaWiki.

summary

• translate Category, Template, Help into Japanese (Katakana)
• change delimiter of talk namespace, from "‐"(U+0x2010) to "・"(U+0x30FB).

  In Japanese keyborad (JIS Keyborad), it's a little hard to input "‐". And it's confused "-"(U+0x002D).

• change translation of talk, from "ノート" and "会話" (used at only User talk) to "トーク".

  "ノート" means (is Katakana-ized word of) "note". "トーク" means (is Katakana-ized word of) "talk"

Old

New

$namespaceNames = array( NS_MEDIA => 'メディア', NS_SPECIAL => '特別', NS_TALK => 'ノート', NS_USER => '利用者', NS_USER_TALK => '利用者‐会話', NS_PROJECT_TALK => '$1‐ノート', NS_FILE => 'ファイル', NS_FILE_TALK => 'ファイル‐ノート', NS_MEDIAWIKI => 'MediaWiki', NS_MEDIAWIKI_TALK => 'MediaWiki‐ノート', NS_TEMPLATE => 'Template', NS_TEMPLATE_TALK => 'Template‐ノート', NS_HELP => 'Help', NS_HELP_TALK => 'Help‐ノート', NS_CATEGORY => 'Category', NS_CATEGORY_TALK => 'Category‐ノート', );

$namespaceNames = array( NS_MEDIA => 'メディア', NS_SPECIAL => '特別', NS_TALK => 'トーク', NS_USER => '利用者', NS_USER_TALK => '利用者・トーク', NS_PROJECT_TALK => '$1・トーク', NS_FILE => 'ファイル', NS_FILE_TALK => 'ファイル・トーク', NS_MEDIAWIKI => 'MediaWiki', NS_MEDIAWIKI_TALK => 'MediaWiki・トーク', NS_TEMPLATE => 'テンプレート', NS_TEMPLATE_TALK => 'テンプレート・トーク', NS_HELP => 'ヘルプ', NS_HELP_TALK => 'ヘルプ・トーク', NS_CATEGORY => 'カテゴリ', NS_CATEGORY_TALK => 'カテゴリ・トーク', );

We need your support:

• I know we can use Special:AdvancedTranslate, but it can't make alias of old names.
• How can/should we notice this change to Japanese MediaWiki users/system admins/developers?
• When does this change begin to be used? Next MediaWiki revs? Through mw:Extension:LocalisationUpdate?

Aliases will be taken care of by the committer (me), so just change it. On Wikimedia it may take months, but committing namespace is something I can do this weekend.

Thanks for you reply. How about noticing? How/where need we notice?

Probably the projects that use the Japanese language setting. Also you should check where the namespace names are used hardcoded in your wiki, for example changing {{#ifeq:{{NAMESPACE}}|ノート|...}} to {{#ifeq:{{NAMESPACE}}|{{ns:Talk}}|...}} or {{#ifeq:{{NAMESPACE}}|{{ns:1}}|...}}, which will make the function work with both namespace names.

Changes have been committed in mwr:66490. Strangely enough the Japanese updates are not in there. Niklas, could this be a caching issue?

I see they had not been yet. I've committed them in mwr:66497. catrope will update namespaces, special page aliases and magic words in a few hours on Wikimedia wikis.

Thank you!

catrope didn't manage to get around to it today. He said he'd do it Monday.

What is this, and does it need to exist in 'de-formal', even though there's no difference between usual German?

Wikiblame only has fallback to English, so to have a complete interface in formal German, there must be duplication.

What's the $1 parameter in Mwe-missing desc see source. Currently difficult to translate when it's not known what it is.

Message was changed to be more clear.

Hi there,

de-formal differs from de only by 1 string: $messages['help_translating'] = 'Hilf beim Übersetzen auf translatewiki.net'; turns to $messages['help_translating'] = 'Bitte helfen Sie beim Übersetzen auf translatewiki.net';

Can you maybe copy the text within the database or something?

Regards,

Flo

Sure, consider it done.

What is the question to which 'yes'/'no' are the answers for Prefswitch-survey-true ("Yes") and Prefswitch-survey-false ("No")? I have looked and can't see these latest yes/no messages.

 Done Thanks for info - documented.

Namespaces "Usuário" and "Usuário_Discussão" are pt-br. In pt, they should be "Utilizador" and "Utilizador_Discussão". Could you please place the pt ones into pt and ensure they are used by default, even if the others are allowed?

 Done mwr:66515.

Many thanks! Should I change it back, here at MediaWiki:Sp-translate-data-Namespaces/pt‎, or will something in the process take care of that?

Best delete that page if out of process changes have been made.

Ok, I'll delete it.

By the way, having only now looked at mwr:66515, "Utilizador" and "Utilizador_Discussão" should be the main and default, and "Usuário", "Usuário_Discussão" the accepted aliases.

Yes, that's what's currently set.

Only comes to show how much I know of what I'm talking about. Apologies then.

Actually, on my own defense, the screen of my portable makes it hard to distinguish dark green from black on daylight. So, I hadn't even noticed the greeny thingies, only looked at the other red thingies and there's the technical explanation!
