Section translation supports the translation of new articles by translating their lead section (T260144). The contents of the lead section for the source article are translated by the user and a new article will be published with those contents as their lead section. However, currently the published contents are wrapped inside a section in the target article.
This issue can be observed in some recent translations (examples from Persian and from Turkish Wikipedias) and in the video below:
Steps to reproduce
- Select a suggestion to create a new article on test wiki.
- Translate the article title and one parragraph
- Publish and observe how the new article is created and it includes the contents inside a section with the same article title name.
Expected behaviour
When translating a new article (and only in that case) the expected behaviour would be to:
- Use the title to define the page name.
- Add the contents as part of the lead section without including the article title as a section title.
