Vipz added a comment to T344306: Add "editautopatrolprotected" and "editpatrolprotected" protection levels on shwiki.

As one of active administrators on the Serbo-Croatian Wikipedia beside Aca, I confirm this request.

Vipz added a comment to T325938: Change the configuration for revoking some rights on sh.WP.

Per Limits to configuration changes, I think the first request unlikely to be accepted:

In order for this kind of request to be accepted, the wiki should be large—with multiple active bureaucrats—and be able to demonstrate a real need for the change. In smaller wikis this ability is prone to abuse by bureaucrats wishing to usurp the power of the community to decide on issues of adminship.

Anyway, it is desirable that SH Wikipedia finally gets this transliterator, issues like above will be dealt with later.

Vipz added a comment to T316042: Matterbridge for Wikipedia SH channel on IRC with WM Chat #sh-wikimedia.

As the creator of the WM Chat channel, I support this proposal. It would be good to know if somebody happens to pop onto the IRC channel (irc://irc.freenode.net/wikipedia-sh) of SH Wikipedia to know the rest of the chatters may be in the WM Chat, or if they simply prefer IRC to be able to chat with the rest through these means.

Oh yeah, I should have used personal names as an example instead. For example - "George Washington" - do we write every its instance in -{Latin}-, adapt to the Serbian standard "Džordž Vašington" to use Cyrillic Џорџ Вашингтон, or let it auto-transliterate into Георге Wасхингтон? Or a harder example - "New York" - let it transliterate into Неw Yорк (without doing anything to W and Y), Нев Јорк (always transliterate W and Y into V and J), Њујорк (adapt every instance of New York to Njujork in Latin script), or exclude every instance from transliterating?

What's the status of this as of now? I've got a concern I think hasn't been raised yet. While Serbian Wikipedia and its standard have complete phonemic orthography, i.e. transliterates and writes every foreign word exactly as pronounced in the language (effectivelly minimalising use of letters XYQW), Serbo-Croatian Wikipedia and other standards of the language make use of these letters when writing foreign words exactly as they appear in the foreign language (unless it's part of the language itself, then it's adapted).
