Bug #: 39396
Summary: Open non OS supported QRpedia language codes
Product: Wikipedia App
Version: 3.2 (iOS) / 1.2 (Android)
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Generic
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
From: [email protected]
The idea was for the Wikipedia app to check if it was in the same language as
the phone and if not offer to open links in the language the app is in. This
way it will work a little like qrpedia but support hundreds more languages that
mobile phone currently don't support which qrpedia is reliant on (e.g Welsh)
empowering Wikipedia users and won't not screw up qrpedia stats.
Here's an example of how the process would work:
The phone is English but the Wikipedia App is in Welsh. A QR or QRpedia code is
scanned, the phone is in English so the QRpedia code takes the phone through to
an English Wikipedia page. The page is opened in the Wikipedia App. The
Wikipedia app recognises that it is in Welsh and offers the article in Welsh
instead of English, this could be saved as a preference so it wouldn't ask you
every time.
