Mon Jan 24 12:30:51 UTC 2005

Hi

After large update the language file LanguageRu.php corresponds to the 
last Language.php (revision 1.419). A lot of fixes and improvements 
(removed hardcoded links, renamed talk namespaces, new convertGrammar 
function, new messages etc). It was tested at local Mediawiki site 
(v1.4beta4). New translations was discussed at special Russian Wikipedia 
talk page (http://ru.wikipedia.org/Википедия_обсуждение:Языковой_файл).

How to update LanguageRu.php in CVS and Wikipedia?

(new langfile is located at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/LanguageRu.php)

Page "Requests for languageXX.php update" at Meta is probably dead. Now 
in contains more than 30 requests.

Yes, i know about MediaWiki, but:
*new langfile has new translations of some namespaces (category and talks)
*only Russian Wikipedia is well translated (in MediaWiki). Russian 
Wiktionary, Wikibooks etc use the old language file with mistakes which 
are not corrected in their MediaWikies.
*in new wiki-projects (not Wikifoundation's projects) based on current 
MediaWiki software is translated only half of messages (because in old 
langfile many messages absent)

Sorry for my English :(
