Description Siebrand Mazeland 2008-08-17 10:56:06 UTC
The message 'Renameusererrortoomany' needs plural support for $2 and $3. The message currently reads:

"The user "<nowiki>$1</nowiki>" has $2 contributions, renaming a user with more than $3 contributions could adversely affect site performance."
Comment 1 Aaron Schulz 2008-08-18 17:55:00 UTC
Will any of these really be singular ;) ?
Comment 2 Niklas Laxström 2008-08-18 18:01:49 UTC
Plural is not only about n != 1.
Comment 3 Aaron Schulz 2008-08-18 18:08:26 UTC

What other relevant checks are done here?
Comment 4 Niklas Laxström 2008-08-18 18:12:33 UTC
Plural should be used always when there is a non-constant whole number.
Quoting http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/gettext/Plural-forms.html :

> In Polish we use e.g. plik (file) this way:
>           1 plik
>           2,3,4 pliki
>           5-21 pliko'w
>           22-24 pliki
>           25-31 pliko'w
>           ...

EN done in r39602, I assume BW will update things as normal.
