Re: [Translators-l] No technical newsletter this week

I intend to add a navigation contol in all newsletters to navigate across editions. For now there's a category but few people use them and it will be easier if we can link editions. May be we could add at least a dummy entry for the empty edition this week, which should just say that there's no

French done. I saw you had forgotten a tvar for the video link but visibly you saw it too and corrected it the same way I did within the same few seconds and saving my edit produced no diff. Note: I marked the translation a second time with a dummy-edit (as usual, on the dummy space of the

This is good development, but I don't see why we need a special page to define what is metadata of the page itself. May be it will be accessible from the VisualEditor; like we edit categories, but such metadata is a general need for lots of other applications. The general need would be to be able

So there's a problem by one WMF staff member, JEissfeldt (WMF) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:JEissfeldt_(WMF), taking the lead himself on DE.WP, when German admins are currently either in holiday or in Wikimania in London. Seriously, those that are currently in London should be contacted

The only concern is that Wikidata is a single wiki and not all users on a given wiki will be concerned (except for adding interwiki links but technically ll is done on this subject). The rest is about data that will be used by tricky templates and whose readers would be more technical users than

Note to translators; the text of one item is clearly misleading: You can now only move an image to the start of a paragraph, not to the middle of it, so you don't accidentally split it. In fact this does not apply to all images, but *only* block images, i.e. floatting or centered images. I

There are some fixes; including a missing translate tag that caused an item to not be shown in the translate interface. The new VE options to set the display title is more descriptive (and adds the precision that it only works on wikis that authorize this change, e.g. DISPLAYTITLE is disabled and
