Hello developers,
could you please update those two system messages until the Election
begins (00:00 September 1, 2006, UTC)?
MediaWiki:boardvote_notqualified & MediaWiki:boardvote_notloggedin. On
all Wikimedia wikis, though personally I don't recommend you to vote
from a closed/not public wikis ...
It would be great, if you avoid override some newly updated version on
some projects, but overwritten might be better than having the
outdated version.
/me confesses the lack of foresight on this matter, (again) as techno-laity
... and not all wiki can be expected to be properly updated by sysop
hands. (I'm a pessimist in some occasions, don't you know?)

Thank you for your help, always!
P.S. Or you perfer to get like the above on bugzilla? I am not sure on
your preferences ...

The board vote interface is going to be the same as
last year, except
for the requested change in qualifications. We now require that the
first edit occurred more than 90 days before August 1, which by my
calculations is May 3. I'm proposing that the boardvote_notqualified
message is changed so that $4 is the date of the first edit and $5 is
"May 3, 2006" in the user's language. Also, boardvote_notloggedin will
have $3 available as "May 3, 2006". So the text could be:
boardvote_notqualified: You are not qualified to vote in this election.
You need to have made $3 edits before $2, you have made $1. Also, your
first edit was at $4, it needs to be before $5.
boardvote_notloggedin: You are not logged in. To vote, you must use an
account with at least $1 contributions before $2, and with a first edit
before $3.
