             Bug #: 41803
           Summary: Wikibase-item-summary-special-create-* messages are
                    hard to translate
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: i18n
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: WikidataRepo
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected],

    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


There are three new messages:

* Wikibase-item-summary-special-create-item
* Wikibase-item-summary-special-create-property
* Wikibase-item-summary-special-create-query

The qqq documentation for all of them must be updated. Most importantly, these
points must be addressed:

0. A message like "Created a [en] query" is not so great in English to begin
with. I would expect "Created an [en] query".
1. Why is the language code in square brackets?
2. The number ($1) is only used in the {{PLURAL}} clause. Is it correct? This
creates messages like "Created a [he] query with value" / "Created a [he] query
with values". This is quite weird.
