--- Comment #1 from Brion Vibber <[email protected]> 2011-09-06 22:19:54 UTC --- Are you suggesting eg being able to have http://βικιπαίδεια.org go to http://el.wikipedia.org or http://维基百科.org go to http://zh.wikipedia.org ? (In some cases a spelling/transliteration will be shared with several languages, so this wouldn't always be enough without a language or country code.) Do these work ok with Latin TLDs or would they need to be paired with a country-specific IDN ccTLD like .中国 for China or .台湾 for Taiwan? While these sorts of things could be set up as redirects, I don't think they're really suitable for the core hostnames to use in the URLs. We rely on using a shared 'wikipedia.org' domain to cut down *massively* on cookies needed for the shared login state, and mixing core URLs around could be painful, confusing, or error-prone. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
