In some of the non-English Wikipedias, the variable {{SITENAME}}
produces "Wikipedia" in English rather than in local language.
To avoid English name in local Wikipedias, some of the localizers used
the local name replacing the variable {{SITENAME}} in the system
messages in the MediaWiki namespace. The result of this is that
third-party MediaWiki installs that use non-English locale get these
hardcoded local names in various places of the site (even in e-mails
from those MediaWiki installs, in some cases).
The solution would be:
1. To change the value of the {{SITENAME}} variable in various
non-English language Wikipedias to the respective local name.
2. To change back the system messages in non-English to use {{SITENAME}}.
As for changing the system messages back to {{SITENAME}}, this needs
to be brought to the attention of local Wikipedias sysops. I can
manage this in Telugu Wikipedia.
How to change the value {{SITENAME}} for a particular Wikipedia?
Should I file a bug in MediaZilla? Or there any way?
Thanks,
Veeven.
