This would be a start to supporting [[Chinese numerals]], but AFAICT, [[Indian numerals]] are more straight-forward. That is, I don't think the scope of this bug would cover [[Chinese numerals]], but a bug to support [[Chinese numerals]] would imply that the more straight-forward [[Indian numerals]] are already supported. I say this because the representation for 12,345,678,902,345 from [[Chinese numerals]] is not a one-to-one mapping.

Note:hi-wikt uses devanagari numerals as default.
But devanagari numerals don't work with parser functions which (part of) what
this bug is about.
That is {{#expr: १ + १}} returns an error, though the output of
{{#expr: 1 + 1}} would be 2.

Note this is a dupe of bug 30318 which is marked wontfixed. I personally think
this will break stuff (The expr part. I have no opinion on the date stuff). It
will cause expressions to be interpreted totally differently depending on
language. Do we really want {{#expr: 10.1+1}} to be either 101 or 11.1
depending on wiki language? It would prevent people from copying templates from
different languages.
(Note there is a work around of doing {{#expr: {{FORMATNUM:{{CURRENTYEAR}}|R}}
+ 10}} for the example use case presented in comment 0)

Do we really want {{#expr: 10.1+1}} to be either 101 or 11.1
depending on wiki language? It would prevent people from copying templates
from
different languages.
I don't understand how it would prevent copying templates, unless the templates
deal with formatting numbers -- and this change would make formatting numbers
clearly dependent on the language of the wiki.
I think this is most clearly useful for wikis that target people in India
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_numbering_system). Since that is an area
the WMF is targeting, I think that should be considered.
We target language users by providing wikis in their language so that they're
comfortable using them, but, then, when it comes to a basic part of their
interaction with the wiki -- numbers and dates -- we require that they adapt
themselves to Western conventions.
Sophisticated users are probably fine with the current situation, but from the
brief look I've had at discussions on hiwiki and bnwiki, there are a
significant number of people there who would like something they feel more
comfortable with.
(In reply to comment #29)
2. (Somewhat) Larger problem: This is correct if the requirement is to always
present the result in the native numbers and if it is considered OK to mix
native and non-native numbers. This may be fine, but is there a specification
somewhere or is it just a random decision?
Agreed, there should be broader discussion about this.

I don't understand how it would prevent copying templates, unless the templates
deal with formatting numbers -- and this change would make formatting numbers
clearly dependent on the language of the wiki.
Well all decimal numbers are formatted. Some templates need constants in
them.
Example: Put this patch on your test wiki. Set wiki language to nl, import
[[template:Precision]] from en.wikipedia, watch it break (It gives wrong
answers for non-formatted, and gives errors for formatted).
We target language users by providing wikis in their language so that they're
comfortable using them, but, then, when it comes to a basic part of their
interaction with the wiki -- numbers and dates -- we require that they adapt
themselves to Western conventions.
I wouldn't call using {{#expr a basic part of wiki-editor. Its very easy to
create templates using #expr that read formatted numbers so that the average
user doesn't have to deal with it. Yes it would be nice if it all magically
worked, but i'm worried this introduces further problem. (I suppose one could
call {{Formatnum:...}} on every constant in a template, and hence this would
just shift responsibility for who has to call formatnum)

(In reply to comment #6)
for this {{#expr: {{CURRENTYEAR}} + 10}}
we use {{#expr: {{#time:xnY}} + 10}} in bengali Wikipedia
This is helpful, thanks!
And for this {{#expr: ২ + ৩}} it will not work . even any unicode numeric
number will not work like that.
Since we only deal with base10 systems (AFAICT), this is just a small matter of
programming. We have the en-bn mapping for numbers stored in a file:
https://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/MessagesBn.php?revision=110165view=markup
So changing ২ + ৩ into something that parserfunctions can understand (2 + 3
in this case) is fairly simple. Here is an example of some code I just came up
with:
$revert = array_flip($digitTransformTable); # $revert now contains the
# flipped numeral translation
# from MessagesBn.php
$bn = ২ + ৩;
$bnTR = strtr($bn, $revert);
echo $bnTR\n;
echo eval(return $bnTR;), \n;
This code prints the following:
2 + 3
5
In fact, poking around a bit, most of this functionality is built into MW and
just not used in ParserFunctions.
I'll attach a patch to fix this bug for ParserFunctions {{#expr}}, but, after
applying it on my local wiki where $wgLanguageCode = bn, I can create a page
with the following:
{{#expr: ২ + ৩}} br
{{#expr: {{CURRENTYEAR}} + 10 + + ৩}}br
{{CURRENTYEAR}}
And it will display:
৫
২০২৫
২০১২
I *think* this would solve a great deal of the problem.

In India itself among Wikipedias atleast Kannada, Gujarati, Oriya, Punjabi, and Marathi are using their own native language scripts. I am sure there are many other languages out side India which require similar support. Prabhakar, for the sake of pushing your POV please do not close the bugs. Mark has created this bug to add a major functionality to Mediawiki.

We support display of non-Arabic number systems. We should add support to
parser functions for so that {{#expr: {{CURRENTYEAR}} + 10}} (see example in
Bug 31371) will work.
Ideally, wikitext like {{#expr: ২ + ৩}} would work as well.

for this {{#expr: {{CURRENTYEAR}} + 10}}
we use {{#expr: {{#time:xnY}} + 10}} in bengali Wikipedia
And for this {{#expr: ২ + ৩}} it will not work . even any unicode numeric
number will not work like that.
