It's a nice change, but I now notice that the same has been done on the
non-English Wikipedias too. And that's not nice. I'd rather have a reasonable
text in Dutch than a better one in English on the Dutch Wikipedia. Could this
change thus please be rolled back except for en and meta?
Hi,
I warned of this happening. But this would require us to start tracking
individual changes for the different Wikipedias, which would slow down
updates (which is especially bad as Brion seems to be the only one who
has both the permissions and the will to do updates).
I think it's better to annoy people into providing translations. We're
talking about 10 words or so. The problem is, people don't really know
where to go to do so -- meta, intwiki-l, wikitech-l .. we need a
prominent "Provide a missing translation" link on all Wikipedias.
If anyone sends new translations to the list, I'll be glad to apply them
(I can only commit to CVS, though, not update the live code).
Regards,
Erik
