I wanted to send someone a URL to show them how a data item looks in Japanese (so we could see which items have a translation). But am I right in thinking there is nothing I can put in the URL to do this?
I also tried changing my accept-language header to put "ja" first, but it is ignored. Was this a feature that was discussed and rejected; or just an itch that no-one has got around to scratching yet? Darren P.S. I realize I can login, change my UI to another language, and see the data that way. But that is quite a long-winded process, especially if the person has not created an account yet. It also changes the whole UI, not just the data, which is painful if I just want to see what has been translated but cannot read the language. I think for a project about data, you should be able to set the UI language and the content language separately. E.g. I just put a page into Greek (I think), and now I can see the few items that have been translated, but cannot read the property names! Let alone navigate the site.) (The switch back to previous language link at the top was a great idea, though - thank-you to whoever thought of that shortcut.) _______________________________________________ Wikidata mailing list Wikidata@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata
