Description

Support Chinese Traditional and Simplified Han conversion in DynamicPageList.

I have noticed that DynamicPageList does not support language conversion for Chinese Traditional Han and Simplified Han characters. For example, when using a category in DynamicPageList with traditional Han characters, it treats them as separate categories from their simplified counterparts.

I would like to request the addition of Chinese traditional and simplified character conversion support in DynamicPageList. This functionality would ensure that when using categories in DynamicPageList, both traditional and simplified versions are recognized as the same category.

I kindly request the developers to consider implementing this feature enhancement. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I have observed that the current lack of support for Chinese traditional and simplified character conversion in DynamicPageList is causing inconvenience for the operation of Chinese Wikinews. Users are required to meticulously check the traditional and simplified versions of categories every day in order to utilize this functionality effectively.

To improve the usability and efficiency of Chinese Wikinews, I kindly request the implementation of Traditional and Simplified Han character conversion support in DynamicPageList. This enhancement would ensure that when using categories in DynamicPageList, both traditional and simplified versions are recognized as the same category, eliminating the need for manual verification.

When can the deployment be implemented?

You need to ask the reviewers of the repository.

How can I contact to reviewers? Sorry.

@Kitabc12345 You hardly ever can push a trivial task in this situation forward, because you can not force someone to review the code.

I think the patch should be improved though, have posted my thoughts on Gerrit.
