--- Comment #8 from Ryan Kaldari <[email protected]> 2011-04-12 01:55:29 UTC --- Currently 'simple' is classified by MediaWiki as a 'dummy language'. A dummy language is defined as a language code that doesn't have a corresponding set of translated system messages and never will (usually because it is deprecated and now mapped to another language code, for example, bat-smg -> sgs). It doesn't make sense to use a dummy language as a content language since it will never actually affect the content or interface (CentralNotice not withstanding). The two possible solutions are: 1. Make 'simple' (or 'en-simple') a fully supported language code in MediaWiki (like de-formal or nl-informal) and switch simple.wikipedia to use it. This means that 'simple' will get its own translated system messages as well. 2. Remove 'simple' (and hopefully the 7 other dummy languages) from the CentralNotice interface and switch simple.wiktionary and simple.wikiquote to use 'en'. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
