Hi you all, in Esperanto Wikipedia namespace number 2 (User:) is named "Vikipediisto" (Wikipedian). This problem influences also non-Wikipedia project, using MediaWiki: for example, in ScoutWiki (http://eo.scoutwiki.org), namespace 2 is named "Vikipediisto", that's not correct. So, we'd like to rename namespace 2 from "Vikipediisto" to "Uzanto" (User) but keeping versions for every project: * "Vikipediisto" in Wikipedia should redirect to "Uzanto", * "Vikifontaristo" in Wikisource should redirect to "Uzanto", * "Vikicitaristo" in Wikiquote should redirect to "Uzanto", * "Vikivortaristo" in Wiktionary should redirect to "Uzanto", * "Vikilibristo" in Wikibooks should redirect to "Uzanto", * "Vikiversitatisto" in Wikiversity should redirect to "Uzanto", * "Vikinovaĵisto" in Wikinews should redirect to "Uzanto", Some project already uses "Uzanto" as namespace and some projects don't exist yet. Link: http://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikipedio:Diskutejo#.C5.9Can.C4.9Do_de_nomo_de_nosmpaco Thank you very much. - Michael
Thanks for this report. I will change "Vikipediisto" -> "Uzanto" for MediaWiki core and keep an alias for backwards compatability. 1. What should be the canonical name for 'Vikipediista_diskuto'? 2. "Vikifontaristo", "Vikicitaristo", "Vikilibristo", "Vikiversitatisto", "Vikinovaĵisto" do not exist right now?
Firstly, thank you! Then: 1. Argh, I forgot to write it (thank you again :P): "Vikipediista diskuto", "Vikifontarista diskuto", "Vikicitarista diskuto", "Vikivortarista diskuto", "Vikilibrista diskuto", "Vikiversitatista diskuto", "Vikinovaĵista diskuto" (logically in each project) should be redirect to "Uzanta diskuto". 2. I didn't check all them before: * In Wikipedia, there is only "Vikipediisto" and not "Uzanto" * In Wikiquote, there is only "Vikipediisto" and not "Uzanto" nor "Vikicitaristo" * In Wikibooks, there is only "Vikipediisto" and not "Uzanto" nor "Vikilibristo" * In Wiktionary, there is already "Uzanto", "Vikipediisto" is a namespace redirect and "Vikivortaristo" doesn't exist. * We don't have neither Wikisource nor Wikiversity nor Wikinews, yet (source is going to be opened) I hope I wrote all needed information. If not, please tell me! :) Thank you, - Michael
New generic namespace translations "Uzantoa"/"Uzanta diskuto" added with r70350. Old translations "Vikipediisto"/"Vikipediista_diskuto" kept for b/c. These changes will go live with the next software synchronisation. This can take a few weeks/months. New aliases for Wikimedia projects need a new bug: Product: Wikimedia Component: Site requests Keyword: shell Please refer to this (now fixed) bug.

I hope you typed correctly the word "Uzanto" because you wrote "Uzantoa" :D (In reply to comment #3) > These changes will go live with the next software synchronisation.

I was silly trying to see if it worked -.- (In reply to comment #3) > New aliases for Wikimedia projects need a new bug: Is it so necessary (lazy mode=on)? :D (In reply to comment #3) > Please refer to this (now fixed) bug. I wrote again when it will go live, correctly or not. Thank you again, - Michael
