Would anyone mind if I started a little cleanup with regard to the page names of the resolutions? Some pages are named "Resolution:Xx", some are named "Resolution:xx", some "Resolution Xx" and some "Resolution xx". It's not very tidy. I wish to move the resolutions to "Resolution:Xx" and categorize them. Is that ok? Jon Harald Søby 10:20, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds nice. I have been thought the similar, and wonder if it is okay to add a serial number to those resolutions (like UN General meeting resolutions). How do you think? --Aphaea 11:01, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
A serial number could be a good idea too; but should there be some kind of system to them? Or just start at 1? Jon Harald Søby 21:30, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Could we organize this with subpages as well? --Daniel Mayer 17:25, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm formatting everything according to Resolution:Xx/Yy. I'm afraid to fix non-Latin alphabet language redirects, because I don't have all the necessary script plugins. Dates and formatting on this page have been standardized as well. Question: So far I've made only very minor changes to resolution titles (capitalization and occasionally punctuation), but would more freedom be permitted to standardize equivalent things, like "Resolution:Hardware Jun-06" and "Resolution:Hardware Purchase Feb-06"? --Spangineer 02:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Translation

Resolutions should be translated into the core Wikimedia languages. The partial translations linked from the top of the page are significantly out of date. a user that read the old pages thanks to a default language-redirection based on their browser preference... or no English proficiency... could get a significantly wrong impression. A mechanism for deprecating a translation that hasn't been updated (for the purpose of auto-redirection) would be handy here. Sj 00:29, 13 August 2009 (UTC) Sj 00:29, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Have you read the actual pages you are talking about? See the notices on top of Résolutions and 决议. Also, we try not to use talk pages on this wiki and instead focus on m:Wikimedia site feedback so more people can participate. Cbrown1023 talk 15:28, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You're right, the headers on those pages are quite clear. Should they be put on other pages such as Nuestros proyectos as well?
As for the talk page use -- if all talk is meant to be on a single page on meta, should the historical discussions be moved there as well? I normally assume any page that wants its talk redirected somewhere else would say so on the talk page. I could see all talk pages here getting such a header -- but that seems like a lot of discussion funneled into a single page. I've copied this thread there, at any rate.
