The note above is invalid because it refers to opinions I did not express and actions I did not take. It has nothing to do with this entry so it cannot serve as the rationale for any action with regards to this entry. Please provide an explanation why you consider this bug invalid. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16670 --- Comment #12 from Siebrand siebr...@wikipedia.be 2009-02-14 13:49:37 UTC --- This issue has been closed twice now, and comments have been given by a MediaWiki i18n developer and the MediaWiki lead developer. What else but annoyance do you expect to come from this, Christopher? I suggest you close it yourself and leave it be for now. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16670 Christopher Yeleighton kri...@wp.pl changed: What|Removed |Added Status|REOPENED|RESOLVED Resolution||LATER --- Comment #13 from Christopher Yeleighton kri...@wp.pl 2009-02-14 23:30:36 UTC --- The comments given by Brion indicate that: 1. he misunderstands the problem, 2. he has not given a thought to the recommended solution because the problem as he (mis)understands it would indeed be invalid. I expect: 1. Siebrand, to tell whether the extended description I produced contributed satisfactorily to his understanding of the problem; 2. Niklas, to come up with a better solution than mine, or to demonstrate that a satisfactory solution is unlikely to exist (in which case it should be RESOLVED WONTFIX); 3. Brion, to provide a good reason why the problem is invalid, where the problem refers to the problem in my description, not the (invalid) problem in his imagination. Since, based on your feedback, those things are not very likely to happen any time soon, I suggest postponing the problem (RESOLVED LATER) in case leaving it as REOPENED does any harm (although I am not sure why this would be so, given there are many problems in MediaWiki that stay open for a very long time). However, I vehemently oppose making it RESOLVED INVALID because it has not been demonstrated that it is invalid indeed.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16670 --- Comment #9 from Christopher Yeleighton kri...@wp.pl 2009-02-09 11:51:17 UTC --- Although I am not being asked, I dare answer. Perhaps a reformulation will help you to understand the problem. The issue: Text input control labels that are localized suggest that the controls can have localised content themselves. As a result, site administrators do not understand input from editor who choose an interface language different from site language. The solution: Labels of text input controls that the editor is expected to fill should be presented in the site language, not the editor’s, except for sites that explicitly expect such multilingual input. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

What makes you think so? The site contents consists, in particular, of the administrative interface, including labels for form controls. When these labels are localized, it is not clear that the editor is not allowed to use the language of the label, especially for single-line cotrols. BTW, a wiki where the language used for administration is different from the article language is perfectly imaginable. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.
