Description

Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):

  • Ensure you have "Enable automatic machine translation in the Community Wishlist" enabled in your preferences (under "User profile" > "Internationalisation"
  • Go to any wish or FA in a language other than your user interface language
  • Enable MinT translation via the switch in the banner

What happens?:

Everything but the title and status is translated.

What should have happened instead?:

The title and status should also be translated.

Other information (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.):

This broke following T403307 when the title was moved outside the content area. Should be an easy fix.

Derived Requirement

Ensure that when MinT translation is enabled for a wish or focus area in the Community Wishlist, both the entity title and status are translated along with the rest of the content.

Test Steps

Test Case 1: Verify that MinT translation translates the entity title and status

  1. Log in to your Wikipedia account and go to Preferences → User profile → Internationalisation.
  2. Enable the setting “Enable automatic machine translation in the Community Wishlist.”
  3. Navigate to any Wish or Focus Area page that is in a different language than your current user interface language.
  4. Enable MinT translation by toggling the switch in the banner.
  5. Observe the translation results on the page.
  6. ✅❓❌⬜ AC1: Confirm that both the title and status are automatically translated when MinT is active.
  7. ✅❓❌⬜ AC2: Confirm that the translated title and status match the language of the rest of the translated content.

Title did not translate and the status was always english and no need to translate. Not sure if you want this as a separate task or if there is one already but the MT on Tags and Phabricator Tasks is weird.

Submitted a follow-up patch to fix the title and status translation.

I filed a new task T408880 to fix the tags and phabricator fields. The , are being submitted for translation and that's creating the weird behavior.

@HMonroy @MusikAnimal Ok sounds good regarding the task created for ,. I'll pass this, but even though the status translates when I change the UI language already, and not through MT, even with hu language. Also, the title of kenyérfajták is supposed to translate to "Types of bread"; however, the title went really crazy with the translation, as seen from the video. Not sure if that's worth noting or not.
