            Bug ID: 71247
           Summary: useability issues
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Translate

1. Special:PagePreparation does not prefill its pagename field when it's been
called as Special:PagePreparation/fullpagename or as
Special:PagePreparation?title=fullpagename. If it would be, then a button can
be added to the Toolbox to initiate the translation process. The current
process requires re-entry of the pagename on the special page.

2. Special:PagePreparation does not give an error message when the pagename
entered is for a non-existing page. 

3. When a page is reverted to its pre-preparation state, the page still shows
in Special:Translate or special:LanguageStats... the point being that there
seems no way to "back out" a page from translation process once it has entered
it.

4. A new section in the sidebar would be nice concerned only with translation,
eg it lists all the tools/special:pages available to the user for that page. In
particular, it could show (a) options such as "Prepare", "Nuke translations"
and so on (b) current status of the translation process for the page, eg
Prepared for translation, Marked for translation, Partially translated, Fully
translated, and Outdated translation. It would be nice to have a switch in
LocalSettings to display such toolbar. Currently, naive users are confused who
want to go from page->translation process; the current design is always to go
translate->page. That's why I think a Translation section in the sidebar of
translateable pages (not special pages) would be very useful for the whole
community.
