Hi all The default numerals in my Arabic mediawiki http://wikibrary.org is use the Hindu numerals : (٠ - ١ - ٢ - ٣ - ٤ - ٥ - ٦ - ٧ - ٨ - ٩) in the Arab world we prefer to use the global and Arabic numerals : (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
so how to change the default numerals ?
Note that Arabic wikipedia https://ar.wikipedia.org use the Arabic numerals : (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
our wiki website : http://wikibrary.org and we are using mediawiki Version : 1.20.3 and thanks a lot .

Here's the config value you want:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgTranslateNumerals
it defaults to on, which'll use the localized numerals by default when they're available. Since we know customary usage of local versus Western-style digits varies from country to country and from area of use to area of use, it can be disabled in the manner you're looking for.
