Nikki added a comment. Valid language codes have essentially the same problem, except they link to the translated version of "Main Page", e.g. https://www.wikidata.org/?uselang=kl, https://www.wikidata.org/?uselang=gn and https://www.wikidata.org/?uselang=gv all point to non-existent pages. The only ones which work are where we've created MediaWiki:Mainpage/xx. If I understand the suggestion in the previous comment correctly, it would fix the cases where the language is unknown to MediaWiki, but wouldn't fix the ones where the language is known and it can look up the mainpage message.TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T185895EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: NikkiCc: Nikki, Kaganer, matej_suchanek, Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE, Aklapper, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, Wikidata-bugs, aude, Mbch331___ Wikidata-bugs mailing list Wikidata-bugs@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-bugs

Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE added a comment. Also, I realized that there would be one generic solution: if Title::newMainPage() fails to look up the mainpage message in the content-but-really-user language, try again using the content language (->inLanguage( $wgContLang ) instead of ->inContentLanguage()) before falling back to the generic 'Main Page'.TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T185895EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDECc: matej_suchanek, Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE, Aklapper, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, Wikidata-bugs, aude, Mbch331___ Wikidata-bugs mailing list Wikidata-bugs@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-bugs

Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE added a comment. Okay, on wikidatawiki, mainpage is part of $wgForceUIMsgAsContentMsg and is therefore always used in the user language. Mystery solved. I don’t see any easy way to fix this. (I wasn’t aware of it before, but we do have some localized versions of the main page that don’t just redirect to the main main page, so mainpage has to stay a force-user-language message for now.) Is this worth spending any effort on to find a solution or do we just close this?TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T185895EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDECc: Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE, Aklapper, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, Wikidata-bugs, aude, Mbch331___ Wikidata-bugs mailing list Wikidata-bugs@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-bugs

Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE added a comment. Ah, I see. The main page title is taken from the mainpage message (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Mainpage), falling back to 'Main page' if that doesn’t work. However, Title::newMainPage() supposedly uses the content language version of mainpage for that, so I’m not sure why uselang=invalid breaks it…TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T185895EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDECc: Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE, Aklapper, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, Wikidata-bugs, aude, Mbch331___ Wikidata-bugs mailing list Wikidata-bugs@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-bugs
