Greetings,
The latest tech newsletter is ready for early translation: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/News/2014/36
There are lots of interesting things this week :)
I'm planning to send the newsletter on Monday morning (UTC), as usual. The existing translations will be posted on the wikis in that language.
I may make a few edits tomorrow (and remove empty sections), but the content should generally remain fairly stable. I'll let you know tomorrow in any case.
Let me know if you have any questions, comments or concerns. As always, I appreciate your help and feedback.
Thanks!
There's a bug in the source example for redirect Dog -> Animals#Dog; the "instead" clause incorrectly says "Dog#Dog", when it is actually "Animals" in the currently dispayed URL (it will now display the anchor so yes it will be "Animals#Dog"; and certainly not "Dog#Dog" either...
Note: there's also currently a fatal bug in the translate tool; which can no longer mark new versions of pages: The server fails with a Fatal HTTP error 500: Erreur interne https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:PageTranslation#mw-navigation https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:PageTranslation#p-search [bd6bba3f] 2014-08-29 14:27:59: Fatal exception of type BannerExistenceException

I'm afraid you're mistaken, or I'm not explaining well enough :)
Here's an example, on the wikitech wiki because it's still a few versions behind Wikimedia wikis and therefore the previous behavior still applies:
There's https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Guillom/Animals with a list of sections, and https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Guillom/Dog that redirects to [[Animals#Dog]]
If you open the Dog link, you arrive on the Animals page (as expected of a redirect) and the address bar does show "Dog#Dog": https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Guillom/Dog#Dog
If you test something similar on a Wikimedia wiki (with the new behavior), you'll see the difference.
So the sentence in Tech News is correct: If "Dog" redirects to "Animals#Dog", you now see "Animals#Dog" instead of "Dog#Dog".
Note: there's also currently a fatal bug in the translate tool; which can no longer mark new versions of pages: The server fails with a Fatal HTTP error 500:
I can't reproduce this issue, but if it persists, I recommend you open a Bugzilla ticket with the steps to reproduce, so the developers can investigate: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org
Thanks!

The text of the newsletter is now finished. There are a few new items but they're all short.
Here's the direct link to the untranslated sentences: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=pag...
Let me know if you have any questions :)
(As a sidenote, the bug that was mentioned on this list yesterday resolved itself.)
Hi, The translation suggestions are not loading for all the strings, is there any specific reason for this? I am translating to the Bengali language and previously this suggestions were working properly.

An item about VisualEditor was missing; due to its importance, I've decided to include it: It's about VisualEditor being enabled for all users of Internet Explorer 11 (either as opt-in or opt-out, depending on how VisualEditor is configured on each wiki). The same link as above should point you to the untranslated item. I've already done the French translation.
My apologies for this last-minute change!
