When specifying different language versions of Wikipedia pages, a list of the native names of the other languages the page is available in is displayed on the LHS (usually) of the page. When one links to the Sesotho (st) language version of a page (see [[:en:User:Zyxoas]] for an example) the native language name is incorrectly displayed as "seSotho" instead of the correct "Sesotho". [[Sesotho]] is not an [[Nguni]] language and does not use caMeL CapItAls distinguishing the class prefixes for proper names (unlike isiZulu, isiXhosa, etc).
Fixed with r27488.
I don't quite understand. Does this mean that the name has been changed to "Sesotho" in the latest software release and will apear on Wikipedia soon? If that's the case (since it still hasn't changed on Wikipedia), then that's perfect. Thank you.
Yes, in a few days, after the next software sync on Wikimedia servers, [[st:]] will appear as "Sesotho". Have a look at [[st:Special:Version]]: "MediaWiki: 1.12alpha (r26409)" is it today. When the number is >= r27488 it's live :)
