Additional cleanup part

You probably also want to clean up MediaWiki:Clearyourcache. I won't touch this exclusive WMF realm. — regards, Revi 23:07, 28 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Done! Thanks for raising that here. Martin Urbanec (WMF) (talk) 23:10, 28 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

typo in MediaWiki message

Hi, on MediaWiki:Sessionfailure incognito is misspelled as 'inkognito' --Nintendofan885T&Cs apply 20:28, 29 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Nintendofan885, thanks for letting me know. Fixed. Martin Urbanec (WMF) (talk) 20:30, 29 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

AF#2

Hi. Looks like AF#2 is copied from meta AF#39 rather than #72 as in the note. Also do we need to opt out user namespaces to reduce FP like Special:AbuseLog/28? --WhitePhosphorus (talk) 13:12, 30 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hey @WhitePhosphorus, of course, had multiple filters (incl #72) opened at the same time, and copied URL of the wrong one. Fixed. User namespace opted out, I'll create another filter to "lock" user NS only to the userspace owner (and privileged users). Martin Urbanec (WMF) (talk) 13:17, 30 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Translations

Hi Martin, thanks for enabling SUL and activating the translate extension. As far as I can see, we will have to add translation markup to many pages, mark them for translation and import manual translations into the translation system. If I can help here with my experience as a translation admin in a few other projects, just let me know. Best regards, --Ameisenigel (talk) 19:18, 2 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hey @Ameisenigel, I'm glad you like the changes. Indeed, many of the currently existing pages will have to be marked for translation before any actual translation can happen here. I'm not sure what's the plan for that: I'm pinging @GVarnum-WMF, who will likely be able to answer that question. Martin Urbanec (WMF) (talk) 19:48, 2 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
does the translation admins have access to the "editor" group? It means, they can edit legal-related pages? Thingofme (talk) 01:24, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
Special:ListGroupRights says no. --Ameisenigel (talk) 04:10, 3 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Thingofme As @Ameisenigel says :). They can, however, mark pages in restricted namespaces for translation, see [1] for an example.
If you meant to ask "would volunteers be able to become translation admins", that's not my call (but @GVarnum-WMF's). Personally, I don't think that right is much useful without also being able to edit the translatable pages (as you can't ie. prepare sth for translation without the editing capability).
