Description Lydia Pintscher 2012-06-13 14:32:33 UTC
Currently if the interface is set to English one can not add a link for a new article by typing "Germany" but only "Deutsch". This should either be changed to allow both or just the translated name of the language.
Comment 1 Niklas Laxström 2012-06-14 06:22:05 UTC
If you are in hurry and don't wait for ULS, there are already few language selectors that accept languages in all languages, one in Kieli and one in Incubator extensions.

That bug is fixed; can this be reproduced still?
Comment 5 reza1615 2013-08-12 10:02:04 UTC
I tested it and still reproducible .for example by typing آلمانی in farsi interface it doesn't add dewiki
Comment 6 Amir E. Aharoni 2013-08-14 11:25:37 UTC
I didn't look too deeply into it, but maybe ULS's languagesearch API action be used for this.

There may be an issue with mapping between language codes and project codes, though.
