Good day everybody, I'm using mediawiki 1.15.1 with german localisation. $wgLanguageCode = "de-formal"; Well, this works messages, navigation, special pages and so on are german. But after an update from 1.14 to 1.15.1 all the words are written with small letters. Normally each word should begin with a capital letter. As you can see at the german wikipedia, left and top navigation such as site <-> Hauptseite or edit <-> Bearbeiten are with capitals in front.
Does anyone know if there is another variable wich must be set?

I don't know the answer, but I have got exactly the same problem on my wiki.
They are most likely over riding the defaults using css in either [[Mediawiki:Common.css]] or [[Mediawiki:SKIN-NAME.css]] (example: [[Mediawiki:Monobook.css]]) for the capitalization rules.

Its in the style sheet "main.css"; search for something like ...
#p-cactions li a { text-transform:lowercase; }
Bye, Peter
Hi Peter,
since I'm suffering the same problem I tried your tipp and commented out all occurrences of "text-transform:lowercase;" in main.css, but to no avail. All text in the "edit-tabs" and also the words "navigation", "suche" and "werkzeuge" in the sidebar stay lowercase.
Should I replace "text-transform:lowercase;" with something different and if yes, with what exactly?
Cheers Katharina Wolkwitz

Hmm, ... - real content in "Mediwiki:Sidebar" isn't already lower cased? - you caught and modified correct "main.css"?
BTW, I found the occurrances of "text-transform:" with Firefox/Firebug.

- and you made sure neither the page nor the css were still cached?

Morning, I've got it now. In the main.css (of the skin you are using or which doesnt appear correctly) you have to edit, outcomment the following lines: .portlet h5 { background: transparent; padding: 0 1em 0 .5em; display: inline; height: 1em; --> /*text-transform: lowercase; Navigation left site: Themenbereiche, Navigation, Suche, Werkzeuge*/ font-size: 91%; font-weight: normal; white-space: nowrap; }
.portlet h6 { background: #ffae2e; border: 1px solid #2f6fab; border-style: solid solid none solid; padding: 0 1em 0 1em; --> /*text-transform: lowercase; Don't know what this stands for*/ display: block; font-size: 1em; height: 1.2em; font-weight: normal; white-space: nowrap; }
#p-personal ul { /*text-transform: lowercase; Usermenue: Eigene Diskussionen, Einstellungen, Beobachtungsliste*/ }
#p-cactions li a { /*text-transform: lowercase; Tabheadings in top: Seite, Diskussion, Bearbeiten... */ }
In my case this works fine. Strangely it happened after an update from 1.14 to 1.15.1 and just only with the monobook skin. All other skins work correctly. Hope this will work for you too. Good Luck
Hi!

That was the solution to my problem - I edited the wrong main.css... ;-) Now everything is as it should be! :-)
