Description

Observed after approving a translator application in Special:ManageTranslatorSandbox:

20:47, 19 December 2013 User account Jaredzimmerman (Talk | contribs | block) was created (Gebruiker is gepromoveerd tot vertaler)

Content language is "en", and the text "Gebruiker is gepromoveerd tot vertaler" is in Dutch. That should be i18n-ed and be displayed in user language, or always in content language if i18n would not be possible.

Version: master
Severity: normal

Save user creation comment in wiki content language

Patch is submitted to set log entry to set as content language. I couldn't find easy way to set user's language. addNewUserLogEntry function requires literal string for comment field.
