Lily, major Urdu language news outlets translated "Wiki Loves Monuments" this way, for instance BBC Urdu, Dawn, Jang etcNot a single news outlet translated the Wiki Loves Monuments non-literally.On Tue, Mar 27, 2018 at 9:27 AM, Lily <lilyofthewest.wikimedia@gmail.com > wrote:LilyBest,Hi Saqib,We noticed that there was some back-and-forth on the page for the translation to Urdu. I can read it and it seems the disagreement is about whether you literally say Wiki Loves Monuments and write what you hear in English in Urdu alphabet (which is what you're recommending), or you do actual translation of the words (which is what we used initially). it's hard for us to judge what is correct. :( We may have to eventually go with what's in Wikidata, but I'll leave it to Mohammad to make the call.On Mon, Mar 26, 2018 at 9:14 PM, Saqib Q <saqib.wiki@gmail.com> wrote:Lily, for some reason, the people at Urdu Wikipedia won't let me fix the translation.So mentioning it here:وکی لوز مونومینٹسOn Mon, Mar 26, 2018 at 10:44 PM, Lily <lilyofthewest.wikimedia@gmail.com > wrote:On Mon, Mar 26, 2018 at 10:40 AM, Saqib Q <saqib.wiki@gmail.com> wrote:Oh yes it is but wrong translation.

Mohammad will do one last pass over the Wikidata item in 8 hours or so and will finalize the design. Please make sure you have it there before then! :)On Mon, Mar 26, 2018 at 10:38 PM, Lily <lilyofthewest.wikimedia@gmail.com > wrote:Hi Saqib,On Mon, Mar 26, 2018 at 7:30 AM, Saqib Q <saqib.wiki@gmail.com> wrote:Urdu language is missing.

If you spot an error (in translation or a typo) we would appreciate if you could please let us know by Tuesday March 27, 6am UTC.
