Wikipedia has a Tagalog localization (tl.wikipedia.org). However, when I install Mediawiki on my own server, I can't find Tagalog in the list. Likewise, if I choose "My Preferences" from English Wikipedia is not in the list of languages. Where can I get this special Tagalog localization?
There doesn't appear to be a Tagalog messages file in the software at the moment, which means that it's not in use on that site - rather, there's a Tagalog language edition of Wikipedia, and the local sysops have customised all the UI messages; see http://tl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Allmessages.
On second thought, I don't think this explains one thing:
If you sign up for an account at tl.wikipedia.org and then choose "Preferences," you can find Tagalog in the list of languages. I don't suspect simply editing the messages would cause Tagalog to appear in this list, correct?
