Description

The countries drop-down in Special:BannerAllocation is probably ordered by English name or country code. It should be ordered by the country name in the user's language, otherwise it's very hard to find the right country if the interface is not English.

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

The country names are always in English--that should be fixed as well?

I see it in Finnish if I try it here:

psyke. I see, once [[Extension:cldr]] is enabled, we have the problem Aharoni describes.

Ah, yes, that magical extension :)
