Could you please use the transliterate telugu name for the variable $wgSitename. In Telugu it should be "వికీసోర్స్" instead of "Wikisource". Telugu Wiki projects have the convention of using transliterated names for wikiprojects.
Hi Rahmanuddin. For any configuration change, we require a local consensus. Could you discuss the matter on the Village pump page of your wiki (like http://XXX.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:VP or any other appropriate place) to confirm that this change is wanted by the community, and paste the link to the discussion here? For more information about how to request these kinds of changes, please see https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requesting_wiki_configuration_changes and feel free to forward that link to others who may want similar changes made in the future. Thanks!
Rahmanuddin Shaik, have you opened a local discussion/notification? It doesn't need a big vote, the transliterated name is already used everywhere including the logo (for which we recently got local consensus).
I have added a discussion at http://te.wikisource.org/wiki/%E0%B0%B5%E0%B0%BF%E0%B0%95%E0%B1%80%E0%B0%B8%E0%B1%8B%E0%B0%B0%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%B8%E0%B1%8D:%E0%B0%B0%E0%B0%9A%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%9A%E0%B0%AC%E0%B0%82%E0%B0%A1#.E0.B0.B5.E0.B0.BF.E0.B0.95.E0.B1.80.E0.B0.B8.E0.B1.8B.E0.B0.B0.E0.B1.8D.E0.B0.B8.E0.B1.8D_.E0.B0.B8.E0.B1.88.E0.B0.9F.E0.B1.8D_.E0.B0.A8.E0.B1.87.E0.B0.AE.E0.B1.8D_.E0.B0.B2.E0.B1.8B_.E0.B0.AE.E0.B0.BE.E0.B0.B0.E0.B1.8D.E0.B0.AA.E0.B1.81.E0.B0.95.E0.B1.81_.E0.B0.85.E0.B0.AD.E0.B1.8D.E0.B0.AF.E0.B0.B0.E0.B1.8D.E0.B0.A5.E0.B0.A8 Please check.
With 5 votes in support and no negative votes, as of 22:30 IST 6 July 2013, I believe the process to change the SITENAME to native language can be started.
Change 72318 had a related patch set uploaded by Odder: (bug 50357) Set $wgSitename for te.wikisource https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/72318
So I submitted a patch, but I'd like a Telugu person to have a look at whether the sitename I copied and pasted is correct: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/72318/1/wmf-config/InitialiseSettings.php Thanks in advance :-)
It should be "వికీసోర్స్" and not "వికీసోర్స" as it is seen now. Please change the same.
Created attachment 12772 [details] With change as desired for te wikisource
I have corrected the file and added as attachment. Please check.
Thanks, I copied your change and uploaded https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/72318/2/wmf-config/InitialiseSettings.php — how does this look like?
its correct now. thank you.
The Firefox and Nano combo works good to copy/paste UTF-8 characters in the configuration file. Some text editors, including vi and emacs do sometimes some encoding stuff (e.g. if you copy/paste a iso-8859-1 é in an UTF-8 document, it will convert it to an UTF-8 one), but Nano pastes character as is in the buffer.
