MediaWiki:Group-event-organizer-member should not have a dash in the middle
Open, Needs TriagePublicBUG REPORT

Description

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

What happens?:
This says event-organizer, with a dash in the middle. Because of this, the projects above made a localized version without the dash between "event" and "organizer"

What should have happened instead?:
This should have been event organizer, without a dash in the middle.

Event Timeline

English Wikipedia isn't the site you are looking for. It calls its group "Event Coordinator" instead, simply because we already had an event coordinator group before installing CampaignEvents so merged the CampaignEvents event organizer group with it.

I don't think the linked qqq page has anything to with this, as it's just documentation for translators. Besides, the actual content as stored in the source and viewable on translatewiki uses the standard documentation template {{doc-group|event-organizer|member}}. This seems correct to me. And the English message in the source also seems correct, as it has {{GENDER:$1|event organizer}}. However, what DOES seem to be incorrect is its Wikimedia override, which does indeed have a hyphen. That was introduced in r1071557 for T139246 (created Sep 2024 but merged Mar 2025). I think the reason is that this used to be a local group on meta, until we added it to the default extension config in r1111224 / T376822 (Feb 2025). So, the overrides can probably just be removed now.
