MediaWiki<->TWN relationship is an interesting

We are basically outsourcing translations to translatewiki. We take any
translations/languages they provide.
So your problem could be reformulated to "How can I add a new language
to translatewiki?"
Siebrand added en-ca today with
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/102773
Translatewiki is a tool quite good for translating
languages but I don't
know where are such topics dealt with. In some kind of Village Pump, I
suppose. Does it have a *community*? Or is it just people translating a
few messages and leaving?
Requests for new languages can be added to
http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Support and
translatewiki.net staff like
Siebrand, Niklas or me will add it.
I recently had the opposite problem (wanted to remove
a language
translation) but didn't find out the proper way, either.
Either fix the translation in
translatewiki.net or delete the messages
there. Deleting in SVN only does not help because the export script that
I run on a daily base will export them again.
If you need admin rights pls ping me.
Roan notes that not every MediaWiki developer has
translator rights.
The full steps for adding a message/project seem to be known just by a
few folks.
So I think there are some communication problems
regarding translatewiki.
They may just need a few explanation pages, or need a more work, but
it's sane to discuss it.
Absolutly. Documentation can be improved.. Bug 1? *hides*
