If this needs to be done by local admins, then please let me know how to do it, and we'll figure it out on wiki.

You can edit the "display names" of tags as localisation messages, for example:

• https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Tag-discussiontools-reply&action=edit
• https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Tag-discussiontools-source&action=edit

You can use wikitext links and other syntax in them.

All of the tags are listed on Special:Tags, which also provides direct links to edit them (if you're able to edit them, as an adminitrator / interface-editor on the wiki).

The task description has been updated. This task will be ready to be worked on once @Whatamidoing-WMF and I have talked about it (we plan to do this tomorrow).

I have the interface editing rights required to do this if necessary.

Excellent, Ed. Please see: T250520

I am going to create the page the task description's "Page components" section describes.

Before that happens, we'd like for the "Reply" change tag on all four partner wikis to be linked to the MediaWiki page. This intermedia step is going to happen in this task: T250520

For the Dutch Wikipedia ideally you would link from recent changes to a page in Dutch on the Dutch Wikipedia in the Wikipedia: namespace. Some people really don't like when they are diverted to another project in another language with a community they don't know. That page could have a section on international collaboration with links to other projects and to mw.org.

We need a "default" page at MediaWiki.org – perhaps a basic Help: page. If someone volunteers to create and maintain a local page, then the link can be changed for that local wiki. Most small/tiny wikis will not want to create their own pages, but (e.g.,) the Arabic Wikipedia will probably want to have a local page.

Definitely yes, a local page like this one will help community to feel that the tool is designed for them/their Wiki and to be confident they have a place where to get help and assistance in their language.

Local pages in local languages are important...understood. Thank you for sharing this feedback with us, @AdHuikeshoven and @Dyolf77_WMF.

With the above in mind, we've created a page on mw.org containing the information we think is important for editors to see.

You can review this page here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_project/Beta_Features. [i]

We were thinking local wikis could then take the content from Talk pages project/Beta Feature and add it to a page on their wikis and add information to it as they see fit.[ii]

Next steps
I think @Whatamidoing-WMF had some ideas about what exactly could happen next.

In the meantime, @AdHuikeshoven and @Dyolf77_WMF: how does the above sound to you both?

i. See this ticket for additional context about the purpose of this page: T250539
ii. Like what @AdHuikeshoven described in T250539#6067697 and what @Dyolf77_WMF linked to in T249063#6073004.

Sounds good. I translated https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_project/Beta_Features and published on https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Overleghulpmiddelen.

Sounds good for me too. The www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_project/Beta_Features page will be shared here.

Update: Done.

Excellent. Thank you, @AdHuikeshoven. I've added the link above to the task description.

The localized screenshots are wonderful. What a great idea! Thank you, @Dyolf77_WMF. I've added the link above to the task description.

Next step

• @Whatamidoing-WMF: once T250520 lands and change tags are linked to mw.org's Talk pages project page, notify partner wikis that link can now be changed to local URL. Which, if wikis do not prefer otherwise, should be a translated version of this page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_project/Beta_Features.

I forgot this task. Done for frwiki.

I didn't forget, but I understood by reading other tickets that it will be implemented differently now, and we will come back to this topic in the future, maybe with different conception and content. I am planning to create the local page soon, but please let me know if this task should be prioritized.

The superfluous local mediawiki messages MediaWiki:Tag-discussiontools-reply and MediaWiki:Discussiontools-reply-descriptionpagelink have just been deleted. Now https://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?hidebots=1&hidecategorization=1&hideWikibase=1&limit=250&days=7&enhanced=1&damaging__likelybad_color=c4&damaging__verylikelybad_color=c5&title=Speciaal:RecenteWijzigingen&urlversion=2 shows "Reageerfunctie" as label when Discussion-tool has been used. However, without a link to https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Overleghulpmiddelen.

Thanks @AdHuikeshoven. It looks like due to the wmf32 train being reverted, the change to MediaWiki:Tag-discussiontools-reply in Dutch is out of date, so we'll need to fix it on-wiki until next week's release.

Edit: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Tag-discussiontools-reply is fixed again, can be re-deleted when wmf32 is deployed.

@Esanders thanks, I checked, it works again
