[Mediawiki-l] Why only a small fraction of text(in preferences)is displayed in Chinese and all others are still in English ?

[Collin Hsu]

Dear Brion, 

Thank you for your helps! 

I 've tried as you adviced,  it remains the same.  

I find out that the problem is probably caused by failing to import
LanguageZh.php to override those are defined in Language.php, because when I
open the wiki in my browser , it always leads me to "Main_Page" not
appropriate mainpage as defined in the LanguageZh.php. 

Would it possible to fix the problem?

Appreiciate very much!

Collin Hsu
