It needs to be updated in general... Here's a proposal for a prettified page: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17316 With a separate general note that we need a way to localize the message text: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12302 Since this isn't a squid-level error page we probably don't have to play the tricks with inline CSS/JS/stuff to do the localization, but I'm not sure what's the most desireable thing as far as localizing the template. -- brion _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
