http://en.wikipedia.org/wikistats/EN/CategoryOverview_TA_Complete.htm - this page seems to recognise the categories created using [[Category:some category]] tag and NOT the ones created using [[பகுப்பு:some category]] tag. "பகுப்பு" is the Tamil word for "category" and it is a valid namespace in Tamil wikipedia. Thanks, Sundar
If the configuration of the underlying tool is wrong this can be a consequence of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=321607 == Bug [Bugzilla] 321607: "'copy and paste cuts off text (Tamil/Hindi scripts)''" *hints* a) copy "பகுப்பு" with apostrophes and remove them after pasting them; b) use &#nnnn; character encoding in the configuration; you can convert the characters at http://pastebin.com/ and will get பகுப்பு regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
This doesn't seem to be related to the other problem. Because we always have "பகுப்பு" enclossed by [[ and : characters. Also, we're able to see that the categories are created successfully, but only the statistics don't reflect that. Thanks Reinhardt.
Hi Sundar! comment 1 referes to the configuration of the underlying tool for http://en.wikipedia.org/wikistats/EN/CategoryOverview_TA_Complete.htm I assume that in that configuration the last character is missing. regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
Oh, I got your point now. Thanks. Regards, Sundar
Created attachment 1351 [details] Modified LanguageCodes.csv to fix category counts Thanks to Reinhart and Natkeeran, I fixed the entry for Tamil in LanguageCodes.csv as indicated at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikistats_csv. Please update the file with the diff (ta,(utf-8),பகுப்பு,படிமம்,பயனர்,(#Redirect)). Also, will the default categories marked with the English tag "Category" come under the stats? Thanks, Sundar
Another old one that may be obsolete.
Comment on attachment 1351 [details] Modified LanguageCodes.csv to fix category counts The attached file is not a patch.
Wikistats harvests language specific tags by parsing language specific config files (php). So just supplying an updated tag file won't do it. It will be overwritten. I will hunt bug in php parser code.
Thanks Erik.
Lowering priority since this bug has sat around for 2.5 years.
Categories like பகுப்பு:ஐக்கிய அமெரிக்கக் குடியரசுத் தலைவர்கள் exist but are not listed on http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/CategoryOverview_TA_Complete.htm while other categories like பகுப்பு:சிங்கள தலைவர்கள் are. Obviously they both use பகுப்பு: instead of Category:.
