> Port Michael's wikitext-in-JS code (for PLURAL and stuff) It seems that Michael (Dale?) already wrote the code for that. After looking at server-side Language classes, it seems that client-side plural either requires AJAX (which is really inefficient for messages), or, a much better approach is to make a set of JS language classes, similar to PHP classes, which is a larger work. After looking at ResourceLoader code, it seems that message classes are here, for example I've found resources/mediawiki.language/languages/ru.js, which implements mediaWiki.language.convertPlural. However mediaWiki.msg currently ignores them. I can match a plural with JS regexp and try to replace callback value by that mediaWiki.language.convertPlural() call, however I have the feeling that it's better to wait for trunk merge, instead of re-inventing something that will not be used. It seems that ru.js mediaWiki.language.converPlural matches the logic of LanguageRu::convertPlural. I don't know any more languages. What can I do to help?
