Broken namespaces in the Buginese Wikipedia
Open, MediumPublicBUG REPORT

Description

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

What happens?:

The image and category are shown as plain wikitext red links.

What should have happened instead?:

The image should be shown as an image and the category should be shown as a category, like they used to be: https://web.archive.org/web/20250217185605/http://bug.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atong

Software version (on Special:Version page; skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):

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

This is presumably triggered by the changes in T389916 - Buginese falls back to Indonesian, so MediaWiki used Indonesian for the namespace names. Namespace translations were added for Buginese, now the Indonesian ones don't work.

Event Timeline

@Nikki You could move all the page in the old namespaces to the new ones. I know that replacing everything would take some time, so I think you can also add some aliases using the old namespace to easily avoid the issue (so that "Berkas:" and "Kategori" will still work, even if the current namespaces are respectively "Attarong:" and "Katagori:". Do you have any issue with the other namespaces?
