While I'm on the subject of local language

Wikitech-l last week about who, if anyone, monitors and applies
requested changes to the LanguageXX.php files, requested via
[[meta:Requests for languageXX.php update]] and [[meta:Language files to
be updated]] and got no reply at all --- there are requests on there
that go back to last March and there is no indication that any of them
have been actioned.
[[meta:Requests for languageXX.php update]] is rather dead, it is from the
time before users were able to customize messages using MediaWiki:...
In that case it's a rather unfortunate that there's quite a prominent
link to it from "meta utilities" on meta's front page! But
notwithstanding MediaWiki, there are other things which individual
language users may wish to customise, such as magic words, words for
"left" "right" "centre" "thumb" etc. for the
image syntax, namespace
names, etc., which are among the things I've been trying to update on
cy. There is still a need for user communities to be able to attract the
attention of developers.
