Change Ks Wikipedia sitename (wgMetaNamespace) from Wikipedia to وِکیٖپیٖڈیا
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I on behalf of Ks Wikipedia Community am requesting change in Site name from Wikipedia to وِکیٖپیٖڈیا. The requested change is the translation of current name. This change is necessary as it introduces English language in Kashmiri sentence.
We have already discussed it with our community.

This does not seem to be about {{sitename}}, but instead about setting wgMetaNamespace in https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/InitialiseSettings.php.txt

I don't see how this is more urgent than other tasks; lowering priority

It has been a while since this change has been requested.

Changing priority back. Please note priority should reflect reality, not wishes. I'd also like to note that priority should only be assigned (changed) by whoever is actively working on the task, product/project manager, technical leads or experienced tech community members. It should not be set by reporters or outside observers. Thank you for your understanding!

How much time it takes for a request to be completed? We are really in need of this change at Ks Wikipedia as it makes it hard to understand, write and edit the code. The two languages use different directions and thus creates many errors.

@Iflaq: If you do not want to wait until someone picks a task up, feel free to prepare such configuration changes yourself by following https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_site_requests - thanks.
Again: Please refrain from editing the Priority field if you do not plan to work on a task yourself.

@Aklapper: the change has been made but review remains.

I guess we have a merge conflict at gerrit which needs to be resolved.
