Assigned to: xqt
Original description:
Per discussion on
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/pt/wiki/Wikipédia:Esplanada/proposta…
please, change the function translateAndCapitalizeNamespaces \(from
cosmetic\_changes.py\) so that the bots stop doing the following chnges:
\* Image --> Ficheiro
\* File --> Ficheiro
\* Arquivo --> Ficheiro
\* Imagem --> Ficheiro
This is necessary in order to avoid linguistic problems, considering that
"Arquivo" is the preferred word on Brazil but "Ficheiro" is preferred
on
Portugal.
For \*\*image\*\* files, the word "Imagem" is common to both Portuguese
variants, and as such it is preferred, so this should be the name used when
changing the namespace name of images. The use of "Ficheiro" and
"Arquivo" is
preferred only for \*\*other kinds of files\*\* \(such as PDF or OGG\), which
are not images.
So, in short, the bots should do the following changes:
\* For images \(i.e. files with one of the following extensions: png, gif, jpg,
jpeg, svg, tiff, tif\), change:
\*\* Image --> Imagem
\*\* File --> Imagem
\*\* Ficheiro --> Imagem
\*\* Arquivo --> Imagem
\*For other files \(i.e. files with one of the following extensions: xcf, pdf,
mid, ogg, ogv, djvu, oga\):
\*\* Arquivo --> Do not change \(we should respect the variant used by the
editors\)
\*\* Ficheiro --> Do not change \(we should respect the variant used by the
editors\)
\*\* File --> Do not change \(or change randomly to "Ficheiro" or
"Arquivo",
since it is indeed a "file" and both pt and pt-BR are acceptable\)
\*\* Image --> Do not change \(or change randomly to "Ficheiro" or
"Arquivo", since it is indeed a "file" and both pt and pt-BR are
acceptable\)
\*\* Imagem --> Do not change \(or change randomly to "Ficheiro" or
"Arquivo", since it is indeed a "file" and both pt and pt-BR are
acceptable\)
PS: the output of "python version.py" is the foolowing, although this bug
report applies to all versions:
