I uploaded a proposed solution (see the above change): check if the formatted number can be parsed to the exact same value, otherwise fall back to the unformatted number. The result is that smaller numbers (or numbers with fewer decimal points) are still formatted according to the language, whereas for others we now show the internal value: F34001732: Screenshot_2021-01-14 Douglas Adams-en.png <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F34001732> F34001734: Screenshot_2021-01-14 Douglas Adams-ar.png <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F34001734> This mixture of two styles (which is more noticeable in languages with non-ASCII digits, such as Arabic in the second screenshot) can look ugly, but I think it’s the best we can do given the current limitations of MediaWiki / PHP. @Lydia_Pintscher do you think it’s acceptable?
