[Wikipedia-l] Attention all sysops on non-English Wikipedias

Hi,

hopefully this notice will prevent complaints about this change.

Someone just checked in a software change that will allow sysops to 
customise the names of months and weekdays via pages in the MediaWiki 
namespace, just like most other things in the user interface. When this 
change goes live on the site, you will see the month and weekdays names 
change into English (I believe). Please do not panic when that happens.

Please create pages called [[MediaWiki:January]] etc. and 
[[MediaWiki:Sunday]] etc. in your local Wikipedia and translate the 
months/weekdays names appropriately.

In case you're not sure about the correct spellings, I have included 
them below.

Greetings,
Timwi
