Description Hari Prasad Nadig 2010-12-27 08:02:11 UTC
On Kannada Wikipedia, the title of the front page is presently:

"Wikipedia"

This needs to be changed to "Kannada Wikipedia".
Comment 1 Niklas Laxström 2010-12-27 08:45:37 UTC
You have to do that change locally in the wiki.
Comment 2 Hari Prasad Nadig 2010-12-27 09:42:53 UTC
Would you be able to help us out with specific instructions on how to do that? 
Thanks in advance.
Comment 3 Frank Brall 2010-12-27 10:01:13 UTC
The site name can be changed in the LocalSetting.php file at $wgSitename.
Comment 4 Niklas Laxström 2010-12-27 10:14:01 UTC

It could, but that's not how any other project does it. It's always just Wikipedia (written with local script when appropriate).
Comment 5 Mark A. Hershberger 2011-01-28 23:28:04 UTC
Closing WONTFIX per Niklas last comment.
Comment 6 MZMcBride 2011-01-29 01:54:50 UTC
Re-opening this for now.

As far as I understand this, it's a request to essentially change what {{SITENAME}} outputs on kn.wikipedia.org.

On kn.wikipedia.org, currently {{SITENAME}} outputs "Wikipedia". This is wrong. On other sites such as ca.wikipedia.org, {{SITENAME}} is returned in localized form. As far as I understand, what this variable outputs is defined by $wgSitename, so this would be a shell request to change (or fix) the site name.
Comment 7 Casey Brown 2011-01-29 03:17:05 UTC
I think what it's supposed to say is "ವಿಕಿಪೀಡಿಯ".  ("Wikipedia" in Kannada.)  Hari, could you confirm that?
Comment 8 Hari Prasad Nadig 2011-02-01 17:38:20 UTC
Casey, 

Yes, "ವಿಕಿಪೀಡಿಯ" is right. However, can we have it as "ಕನ್ನಡ ವಿಕಿಪೀಡಿಯ" (Kannada Wikipedia) so that people searching for "ಕನ್ನಡ" (Kannada) can see the site listed on the search pages? 

MZMcBride,

Many thanks for re-opening the issue!
Comment 9 Hari Prasad Nadig 2011-02-23 12:26:16 UTC
Any update on this yet?

Thanks,
Comment 10 M G Harish 2011-03-13 14:40:20 UTC
Casey, yes you are right, it has to be "ವಿಕಿಪೀಡಿಯ". Any updates?
