"lbe" is the default language code for lbe.wikipedia.org, no change needed.

wgSitename and wgMetaNamespace were changed to 'Википедия'.

I can select "lbe - Лакку" language in my preferences, but the language is not default for lbe.wikipedia.org (example, there is 'Article' tab on main page, but not localized message 'Тарих').

I see no difference in the interface with uselang=lbe and without it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?uselang=lbe

works

but

http://lbe.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?uselang=lbe

don't

Apparently, the lbe language file was created after the creation of the wiki. Thus, the MediaWiki:* namespace was initialised using English texts. Since the MediaWiki:* settings overwrite the language file settings, the texts are shown in English.

According to http://lbe.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges&days=300&namespace=8 no edits were made in the MediaWiki namespace. Is it OK if we overwrite the entire namespace with the data from the language file?

Yes, certainly. Thanks.
