Hello.
We, Spanish Wikipedia users, have recently approved in election [[es:Wikipedia:Elecciones#UTF-8]] the will to switch to the UTF-8 encoding.
I have read the messages regarding the possible conversion of en: to UTF-8. Es: is smaller (~24700 articles) and I hope it would be easier to do the change.
We miss currently a person with database access so we would thank very much to any developer making the conversion on es.wikipedia.
Would it be possible?
It is possible. You need to use a bot to convert all windows caracters to iso-8859-1 before the conversion After, some downtime to convert
Tell me when someone can help me to do it. A Saturday or Sunday is usually fine for me.
