So does the text actually appear anywhere? From the request, I would have expected the letter to appear on the blackout page, or at least to be linked from the blackout page. Instead, as far as I can see the page has an English-only message linking to an English-only Wikipedia page, which in turn links to an English-only WMF blog post (which seems to be the same, save the last few sentences, as the translation request), some more English-only Wikipedia pages and an English-only WMF press release. _______________________________________________ Translators-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/translators-l
