Hello,

        I was recently asked on the Anglo-Saxon wiki if we could put the

day and month names into Anglo-Saxon, but the only way I know of to do this is through the LanguageAng.php file.is there another way, or do I have to have that file installed by someone?

Thanks,

Hello James,

Translations are added by developpers, they can't be customized.

Here is the list of data that need to be translated (I am not sure what are the "-gen" ending strings for):

-------------->8----------------------------------------------------- /* private */ $wgWeekdayNamesAng = array( 'sunday', 'monday', 'tuesday', 'wednesday', 'thursday', 'friday', 'saturday' );

/* private */ $wgMonthNamesAng = array( 'january', 'february', 'march', 'april', 'may_long', 'june', 'july', 'august', 'september', 'october', 'november', 'december' );

/* private */ $wgMonthNamesGenAng = array( 'january-gen', 'february-gen', 'march-gen', 'april-gen', 'may-gen', 'june-gen', 'july-gen', 'august-gen', 'september-gen', 'october-gen', 'november-gen', 'december-gen' );

/* private */ $wgMonthAbbreviationsAng = array( 'jan', 'feb', 'mar', 'apr', 'may', 'jun', 'jul', 'aug', 'sep', 'oct', 'nov', 'dec' ); -------------->8-----------------------------------------------------

Namespaces are translated in the LanguageXX.php file as well.

Once provided, a developper will create the LanguageAng.php file and will make it available for all wikimedia websites.
