Hi Arwel,
the problem with the LanguageXX.php pages on meta is that they are
maintained by people who act in good faith, but are not involved in
the development processes. LanguageCy.php for example is based on
revision 1.12. That is a revision from the current "development" branch,
not from the "stable" branch
wikipedia.org is based on. If I apply that
I imagine that Arwel would be happy to provide a file based on the
current
wikipedia.org
branch, if it were easy to figure out what branch that was... it looks
as though she has
been regularly uploading new revisions to the file as new branches
come out. Where
can that information be found? This is not the first time I have wished that
Special:Version provided more detailed information.
What is the correct current process for updating messages not
currently customizable
by Mediawiki? If for some reason [1] the four-month backlog on
[[Requests for languageXX.php update]]
is intentional, there are 15 people who have filed requests who should
be informed
of that (and I would be glad to inform them... but should be able to
tell them the
answer to the above question first).
