The LanguageConverter is a poorly-understood part of mediawiki among mediawiki engineers.
Is there any chance that we could organize a set of presentations or talks by the various communities who use it, in order to lay the ground work for an informed discussion of its future and/or replacement? In particular, https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedias_in_Multi-writing_System lists 30-40 different wikis who either are using LanguageConverter functionality or who would like to use it. I have a reasonable grasp on the linguistic background of (generously speaking) 4 of them. How can we better understand the issues and communities involved? Perhaps something could be arranged at Wikimania this year? Do we know if a decent cross-section of variant-using wiki users will be present? --scott -- (http://cscott.net) _______________________________________________ Mediawiki-i18n mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-i18n
