On a somewhat serious note, I'm a big fan of enabling pig Latin as a language variant in enwiki. It would allow out SFO developers to familiarize themselves with how language converter works, in a script they can (mostly) read and understand. It also is *almost but not quite* reversible (consider "ashway", which could correspond to both "wash" and "ash"), another property it had in common with many real script transliterations (often one script will have upper/lowercase distinctions which are not written in the other script, for example), so it is a useful test case when thinking about how visual editor (say) ought to work with variants.
So while you enjoy your igpay atinlay today, spare a thought or two for the real internationalization issues it resembles. --scott On Apr 1, 2016 11:44 AM, "Ryan Kaldari" rkaldari@wikimedia.org wrote:
Due to popular demand, I've implemented a patch to dynamically convert all Wikipedia content into Pig Latin. Give it a try and let me know what you think: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/280927/
Note that this implementation is language agnostic, but it works best with Latin scripts. For those of you looking for support for Pig Latin as a language variant, try Liangent's patch instead: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/72053/
