And will this fix work for all wikis or only Wikipedia?

Examples of the system messages I mentioned earlier would include, for example:

Thanks Dinoguy100.

Can I put in a specific request that Extension:TemplateStyles should be included in MediaWiki core, since there are now a large number of templates that depend on it, such that copying templates over to other wikis doesn't work (lots of horrible error messages) unless they *also* have Extension:TemplateStyles installed.

There are two ways to solve this:

I wouldn't take too much from comparing English, which is an Indo-European language, with Finnish which is Uralic. The two are very different. English is closer to Slavic languages. Grammarians' analysis of the Germanic genitive isn't controversial.

Apparently it's a duplicate of T40048 so I was right in marking as a bug.

This is the behaviour I would expect:

They are called "broken redirects" in Special:BrokenRedirects -- it's probably not the best term but it's the one you officially use.

I think it may have something to do with Manual:$wgScriptPath being set to / instead of its default of /w -- might that make any sense?

I see.

Ok got it, thanks. Hope to get to the bottom of it.

Maybe not so crazy after all.

I can't replicate this now.

Well, {{gender|username}} isn't used in English either to address the user in the second person, but it's included everywhere in the system messages.

Thanks for checking. Interesting. On Teflpedia, subpages are turned OFF in main namespace, I understand with $wgNamespacesWithSubpages [NS_MAIN]=false;

It may be possible to use Regex to filter messages?

It's particularly difficult to find messages that say something simple like "watchlist", "edit" or "history".

PS I don't see how this blocks T318434. Moving the tools to a toolbox allows the sidebar to be used for 1 purpose, which is navigation links. 1 purpose is better than 2-3 that it does now. Makes things simpler.

I'd like to add my thoughts:

Thanks Izno.

Kwj2772 is right.

I think the genitive case is included in Mediawuki for languages like Polish where it's not straightforwardly formed and is important in the grammar.

Pps actually there may be some relevant code in {{DEFAULTSORT}} -- the category page fetches the {{DEFAULTSORT}} values of all its members. It will also need to fetch the {{DISPLAYCAT}} values for each of those members and then display those values in lieu of the pagename. If that makes sense.

Forget about {{DEFAULTSORT}} that's totally different.

Sorry for the duplicate bug.

Ok, yes I see. Thanks.

Mediawiki: statistics-summary is a system message that should be displayed at the top of special:Statistics.

Sorry umherrinder, but you've misunderstood the report and merged this with a totally different bug. Can I unmerge this?
