OnThisDay API: support ukrainian language
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Add support for the ukrainian language on the /feed/onthisday/{type}/{mm}/{dd} API.

Parser selectors will be slightly different from other wikis for the "selected" type because related ukwiki pages besides actual events info accumulate also data about births and deaths (example). My proposal is to put events data on those wiki pages into a div container with some special class name and then use this class name as part of a selector query.

@MSantos Thank you!
Any news?

@MSantos hi. May I ask you how is it going?

@Mike.Khoroshun sorry for the late response, the change just got deployed in the current deployment window. At first, there might be some caching, but you should see the fix up soon. Please, let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

@MSantos hooray, everything is working great to me, thank you.
