Philippe Verdy <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #24 from Philippe Verdy <[email protected]> 2010-04-14 13:02:33 UTC --- Transition on server just requires keeping a CNAME alias for the compatibility fo the old domain name prefix and the newer ISO 639-3 domani name prefix (creating the new domain on the DNS server, and then changing the old name to become this alias). However, some maintenance is also needed in the PHP code for the list of interwikis (the old name should still be kept for some unestimated time). There should not exist a rupture in cross-site links on Internet and in search engines. When this is done, this will help simplifying lots of language-related templates, and the benefit will also be a better presentation, and simplification for users of these languages. Valid and standard ISO 639 codes are definitely the way to go, as Wikimedia sites (notably Wikipedia and Wiktionary) are THE platform of choice for the demonstration of ISO 639 usefulness. The rule was already applied in MediaWiki's Incubator, and this is fine. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
