Description

Feature summary:
Hello, following this item (https://species.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikispecies%3AVillage_Pump&type=revision&diff=8701954&oldid=8701847) at the wikispecies Village Pump, please set, for wikispecies, $wgRestrictDisplayTitle to false (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgRestrictDisplayTitle).

Use case(s): For its taxonomy, wikispecies uses scientific/Latin names. Taxon pages may also include, for each language, one vernacular name. There is a proposal re the page name to display also on the right-hand side of page, if the page includes vernacular names, the taxon's vernacular name in the language to which the language selector is set. I understand the feature/change requested above is necessary for related development and testing.

Benefits: Enhanced localization/internationalization and approachability/accessibility.

Thank you (as also for [[ T293546]]).

Have you considered using <indicator>?

Currently testing indicators on Felis catus at this version: https://species.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Felis_catus&oldid=8705053 — please hold.

Please could this task be closed as the Indicators method works for the original intended purpose (other than in mobile view, as in task T75299) and it is unclear whether there is much demand at present for other purposes, eg to address homonyms (if there is in future, a new request could always be lodged). Thank you very much for the swift response, patch development, and suggestion of an alternative method.
