(Forwarded from translators-l) Hello all, Election has begun. Please vote now.

To sysops, if you don't subscribe translators-l. For the Election, we have to update two MediaWiki messages, advised Tim Staring.

------

boardvote_notqualified:

You are not qualified to vote in this election. You need to have made $3 edits before $2, you have made $1. Also, your first edit was at $4, it needs to be before $5.

(or a verbose version, if it fits your culture ... thanks to Shim-phone) Sorry, you are not qualified to vote in this election here on the English Wikipedia. You need to have made $3 edits here before $2, you have made $1. Also, your first edit on this wiki was at $4, it needs to be before $5.

You may be eligible to vote on another Wikimedia project where you are active. If so, please visit that project and try again. Thank you!

boardvote_notloggedin:

You are not logged in. To vote, you must use an account with at least $1 contributions before $2, and with a first edit before $3. ------

Those changes could be done automatically by MediaWiki default, or not. Anyway, it would be nice to prepare translations of those messages in my opinion.

Other MediaWiki:Boardvote_* files have not to be changed, unless they wasn't been translated. If it is your case, consider put the English version to those two messages first, and then do translation somewhere else, in one page ideally, and set them on your wiki later. That would take only 30 minutes or so.

As for those two messages, you can see them on meta too: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Election_UI_text_2006

If you feel at ease, you can work on that page.

Cheers,
