[edit] Translation Template

I have created a new template, {{Translation}}. This template is for articles in English (or another language) that need translation into Norfuk. Articles with this template will be put into Category:Artikels f' translation. At the moment only one article is tagged, but maybe more will come along. Parenthesis 11:50, 29 November 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Protected titles

Due heavy spam, I requested and was granted temporary sysop in this project. In my time as administrator (although I am still one, it will expire soon) I deleted several empty pages and spambot pages I found, blocked User:Wili on Wilse indefinitely due move vandalism, fully protected the main page against moves, created {{tl}} and {{protected title}}, and Wikipedia:Protected titles, modeled after the English version. If an administrator needs to protect a page from creation, just include it in Wikipedia:Protected titles following the existing examples, and the cascading protection will prevent the recreation. Cheers! -- ReyBrujo 15:37, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spelling of City Names

Put in English, because I want to be able to consult as widely as I can.

I propose the following naming conventions for places:

• Where a common Norfuk word exists for a place (Norfuk Ailen), it gets used.
• If no common word exists, but one is used in an authoritative source (say, Alice Buffett's book), then it gets used (Sidni).
• If there is no printed word used, then coin a phonetic word, preferably using the Alice Buffett orthography. Use a Norfuk pronounciation if that exists, otherwise use the Australian English pronounciation (as this is the most common dialect of English used by Norfuk speakers).
• Languages that do not use the Latin script (Chinese, Russian, Arabic), should be Latinised to English as on the English Wikipedia, and then further Norfukised in a phonetic fashion.
• Needless to say, we should be as consistent as we can. At present, with 46 articles, this is relatively easy, but it will become more difficult as time passes.

I also propose the following naming convention for people:

• If the person has a Norfuk name, then use it (Flecha Kreschen, not "Fletcher Christian").
• If no Norfuk name, then use their standard English name (John Howard, not Jaan Howird)
• If the language does not use Latin script, then transliterate as proposed above for places.

This assumes we'll be using the "Buffett" orthography. I don't know what we will do should someone want to use another, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Comments, ideas, suggestions? Pall Mall 12:05, 24 Mieh 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Suggestion

Regarding the use of Norfuk and Pitkern orthographies, would it be feasible to have the English spellings of articles redirect to the Pitkern/Norfuk titles? I am fairly comfortable reading the language, having studied it off and on for about the last seven or eight years, but certainly not spelling or writing it at this point, and, for example, I would look for an article here for "Fletcher Christian" before I would know to type "Flecha Kreschen", and would be endlessly frustrated if I guessed wrong and typed "Fletcha Kreschen" or "Flecha Kreschan" and got nothing, for example.

[edit] Betawiki: better support for your language in MediaWiki

Dear community. I am writing to you to promote a special wiki called Betawiki. This wiki facilitates the localisation (l10n) of the MediaWiki interface. You may have changed many messages here to use your language in the interface, but if you would log in to for example the Japanese language Wiktionary, you would not be able to use the interface as well translated as here. In fact, of 1,762 messages in the core of MediaWiki, 1.93% of the messages have been translated. Betawiki also supports the translation of messages for 126 extensions, with 2,174 messages. Many of them are used in WMF projects and they are vital for understanding the wiki. Currently 0.00% of the WMF extension messages have been translated. Translators for over 90 languages contribute their work to MediaWiki this way every month.

If you wish to contribute to better support of your language in MediaWiki, as well as for many MediaWiki extensions, please visit Betawiki, create an account and request translator privileges. You can see the current status of localisation of your language on MediaWiki.org and do not forget to get in touch with others that may already be working on your language on Betawiki.

If you have any further questions, please let me know on my talk page on Betawiki. We will try and assist you as much as possible, for example by importing all messages from a local wiki for you to start with, if you so desire.

You can also find us on the Freenode IRC network in the channel #mediawiki-i18n where we will be happy to help you get started.

Thank you very much for your attention and I do hope to see some of you on Betawiki soon! Thanks, Malafaya@Betawiki 18:28, 5 Febyuweri 2008 (UTC)

• Currently 1.89% of the MediaWiki messages and 0.00% of the messages of the extensions used by the Wikimedia Foundation projects have been localised. Please help us help your language by localising at Betawiki. This is the recent localisation activity for your language. Thanks, GerardM 13:42, 19 Ieprel 2008 (UTC)

• Currently 1.81% of the MediaWiki messages and 0.00% of the messages of the extensions used by the Wikimedia Foundation projects have been localised.

[edit] The village pump

Could someone be so kind and move my contribution to your "village pump" and also, could someone please add a link to your village pump on meta? Thanks, Malafaya@Betawiki 18:28, 5 Febyuweri 2008 (UTC)
