Hi,
I have a little problem to which I currently do not have a solution.
I added a new system message key to the UploadWizard extension via
configuration in the "LocalSettings.php" file called
"mwe-upwiz-license-c". On the special page using it it is shown as
expected as <mwe-upwiz-license-c>. Now I added my translations to
"MediaWiki:mwe-upwiz-license-c" and "MediaWiki:mwe-upwiz-license-c/n"
respectively. However on the special page it still shows as
<mwe-upwiz-license-c> after adding the translations.
I currently have no idea what to do about is. This is what I have tried
apart from using a fresh browser:
- Setting `$wgMainCacheType =CACHE_NONE;` did not work.
- Setting `$wgParserCacheExpireTime = 0;` dit not work
- Running both the "rebuildmessages.php" and
"rebuildLocalisationCache.php" maintenace script did not work.
If someone has a little hint for me, that will be much apprechiated.
Probably it is just a small thing but currently I am somewhat blind on this.
Cheers

Hello,
This is an announcement about a new installment of the Language Showcase, a
series of presentations about various aspects of language diversity and its
connection to Wikimedia Projects.
This next installment will deal with the translatewiki website, the
Translate extension in general, the latest technical updates in both of
them, and some upcoming projects.
This session is going to be broadcast over Zoom, and a recording will be
published for later viewing.
Please read below for the event details, including local time, joining
links and do let us know if you have any questions.
Thank you!
Amir
== Details ==
# Event: Language Showcase #6
# When: July 22, 2020 (Wednesday) at 13:00 UTC (check local time
https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20200722T1300 )
# Where:
Join Zoom Meeting
https://wikimedia.zoom.us/j/99585961221
Meeting ID: 995 8596 1221
# Agenda:
The translatewiki website, the Translate extension in general, the latest
technical updates in both of them, and some upcoming projects.
I'm trying to explored TranslateWiki to discover clues of how to make our MediaWiki installation more translator friendly.
I cannot delve very deeply without be a becoming a validated translator. There is an option to sign up for an account without translating a page. But, unless you translate a page, that account cannot be validated and is auto-purged before even a week passes.
With an unvalidated account, you can't post to the support discussion page, there is no eMail to request help, you're prohibited from posting a question to the Chat. The welcome eMail is a no-reply address.
I am sorry that I do not have another language and cannot translate a page.
How do I get past this hurdle?
