Surprisingly, some of the Wikipedias where upgraded to Version 1.3 beta 1 with the new skin. As I suspected, this skin does not support right-to-left (RTL) languages correctly. Though I kept warning on this issue, it was disregarded.
The result is that currently the Hebrew (http://he.wikipedia.org) and Arabic (http://ar.wikipedia.org) Wikipedias are not usesable! The version should be reversed ASAP !!!
Both me and the other Hebrew and Arabic wikipedians would be happy to help debuging the new skin and version but it is not acceptable to update the live site version without ANY proper tests!
We have long list of bugs that I would be happy to translate to English when it will be needed. But, for now, install the old version that worked fine.
Meir :-(
