--- Comment #20 from Tim Starling <tstarl...@wikimedia.org> 2012-03-05 06:42:32 UTC --- (In reply to comment #19) > Using any Latin-script language on Serbian wikis, then choosing Cyrillic as > variant converted a lot of the UI to Cyrillic. Imho it was a quite major bug. > It still amazes me how often people use ugly hacks instead of reporting a bug. That is true. However it appears to be used in a beneficial way on the Chinese Wikipedia. Because of the inconvenient fallback sequence in MessageCache::get(), you have to create MediaWiki namespace pages in all 9 variants in order for Messages*.php to be successfully overridden. It's easier to copy and paste the same text to 9 pages, relying on the converter to work its magic, than to convert them manually. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
