Import messages from the Burmese Wikipedia

Import messages from the Burmese Wikipedia

Hoi, I have been told that there are many messages that were locally localised on the http://my.wikipedia.org. Given that I am at the unconference in Bangkok, it would be really helpful if these could be imported today. I have a person who indicated that he is willing to proofread them for local stuff. Thanks,

We cannot import messages easily anymore. On the other hand there isn't much to import anyway.

Many sounds like a grave overstatement. There are exactly 33 pages in the MediaWiki namespace over there. Not importing.

I will bug some people tomorrow... I was promised that there would be many messages ... :)
