Well, if you actually visit the description page on Commons, you'll see the templates in your interface language -- that's kind of the _point_ of the autotranslated templates. Then again, Commons is kind of a special case, since, being a multilingual project, it doesn't _have_ a real content language; in a technical sense its content language is English, but that's only because MediaWiki requires one language to be specified as a content language even if the actual content is multilingual. So I can see arguments either way. What language is the "shareduploadwiki-desc" message shown in, anyway? Seems to be $wgLang, which would seem to suggest that the actual description should be shown in the interface language too, for consistency. -- Ilmari Karonen _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
