[BUG REPORT] Reply tool's automatic edit summary use the wiki's content language
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Compare the edit summary in https://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=55713383&oldid=55713375 against the edit summary in https://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=55696385

Generally, on a language-specific content wiki (e.g., enwiki or nlwiki), I'd expect the edit summary to use that wiki's language. At a multi-lingual wiki (e.g., Meta-Wiki or mw.org), it might be nice to do it the other way.

Event Timeline

All West Frisian (fy) wikis are in Dutch (nl) since today (not logged in). Is this related? The language tool indicates 'Frysk' though ... (?)

That's a diff from February, it should be fixed now.

(The existing edit summaries can't be fixed, only new ones.)

Got it! :) Looks okay then.
