Hi, I'd like to start a discussion about the merits and challenges of enabling the Translate and UniversalLanguageSelector extensions on Commons. The Translate extension ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Translate ) is super useful to translate content; it's already used for translations on Meta, mediawiki.org and other non-Wikimedia wikis. In my experience, this extension usually increases the amount of translations and multilingual content on a given wiki, which Commons would benefit from. The UniversalLanguageSelector extension ( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:UniversalLanguageSelector ) allows users to easily switch the interface language; it also embeds an interface to enter text in non-Latin languages even if your keyboard doesn't allow it. My feeling is that both these tools would dramatically improve the user experience on Commons for people who don't use English. As a multilingual wiki, Commons even seems like the perfect audience for these tools. There would probably be some adjustments to make to transition from the current way we handle multilingual content and interface, but I don't perceive them as insurmountable. Are there drawbacks I'm not seeing, or challenges to enabling these tools on Commons? -- Guillaume Paumier [[m:User:guillom]] http://www.gpaumier.org
