--- Comment #49 from varnent <[email protected]> --- As far as web domains goes, there isn't really any consistency at this point with US entities (US-NYC is at nyc.wikimedia.org) - which is partly what we are hoping to address this issue as I suspect there will be more US affiliates popping up in the next few years. The Pennsylvania wiki is closed, and I believe that yes, the URL has been wrong all this time. It should have been US-PA to match the setup used on Meta and all communication related to affiliates. However, that was also a relatively early US proto-affiliate - so it's possible we either did not have a practice for acronyms yet - or it was changed since then to better match ISO. I think it would be more problematic to use one set of acronyms for the US affiliates in documentation, and then have their website address use the opposite setup. US-XYZ is the preferred format being used on-wiki - I think we should stay consistent with that. I suspect Pennsylvania wiki was locked for archive sake - but it seems unlikely to me it will be used anytime soon (if ever again). It does not look like it has been used since 2007 - so maybe it's worth taking offline or storing on Meta or elsewhere? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
