Subject: [Wikitech-l] Fwd: Chat about MLEB
To: Wikimedia developers <wikitech-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Hello,
(2nd attempt to post, sorry if this is a duplicate.)
We're starting to use the translate extension on our wiki (
http://oer.educ.cam.ac.uk). Is this the right list to post a question on?
My question is: If you are going from one translated page (e.g. base page
in en, translated page in fr) to another page (in en) that has a
translation for the same language (fr), can you automatically stay in this
language? I.e. if you on [[A/fr]] you click on [[B]], can are you
automatically taken to [[B/fr]]? There seems to be some provisions for
this, but it's not clear to me.
Also, is it possible to add "languages" - for us it's not so much different
languages, but we're creating localised versions of a teacher education
resource for different contexts (which are mainly English-speaking), which
involves replacing things like "Zambia" with "Rwanda", but also more
complex adaptations.
Our resource is quite complex (e.g. extensive use of templates, and
semantic mediawiki) see
http://oer.educ.cam.ac.uk/wiki/OER4Schools - would somebody with MLEB
experience be happy to have a chat to see whether MLEB is the right tool?
Thanks!
Bjoern

Hey all WMF Language Engineers,
Is the timeline for CX deployed as a Beta Feature firm yet? This page
says Jan 8th:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_translation/Deployment_Plan#Timeline
Is that right?
