The list is finalized (see arwiki sheet), please @MMiller_WMF and @Trizek-WMF can you review it?

Working on this document.

Thanks @Cntlsn my design is just a rough suggestion, fully of design errors. But I hope you understand my point of view.

Thanks, everything is working fine.

It is working fine now, thanks.

How to test this translation ?

Thanks @Catrope I will make some changes right now on TWN, and see if it works.

• The examples are correct except for the last ligne on the second image, but I think it was fixed since >>
• I did a deep review for gender translations last Friday, checked the results this morning (Monday) on betalabs arwiki and they look correct. Waiting for next train to see the results on arwiki .

@kostajh done. Thanks for the tip, that's really cool and helpful for me (sorry, I am just a civil engineer :) ). I tried with some Mentors IDs and the Homepage looks fine!

@kostajh Great, thanks for your help! Do you still need to add back the old mentor description text?

@kostajh Okay, back to the original, I reverted my edits on Wikidata. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14339834

@Etonkovidova Yes, this is the mentor description (mine), not the default text.

@kostajh nothing changed (from a purged cache navigator)

Hmm, I'm wondering if this something with a cached value persisting longer than it should, because if I copy/paste the contents of the mentors page into my local wiki, I see the correct override in the mentorship module.

The default description is displayed, see Task T228991

Let's wait until the train finishes to sync the translated strings.

@Dyolf77_WMF -- I know it's annoying to do, but could you please create a separate task for that correction so that we can track it? Please tag me in the task.

Please can any one correct a typo on the label (ID: ''newarticle'') from: انشاء مقالة جديدة to the correct one: إنشاء مقالة جديدة

Yes, parentheses in RTL are a known bug. If you want know more about them, ask Moriel (book a couple of hours though 😄).

Desktop version, for the new account created:

@Cntlsn that's really weird! The icon shouldn't be mirrored even for RTL search, but it's correct to put it in the end of the search line. Something more, I found that if you change in your preferences the default language to Arabic and visit any Wiki you will have the same icon mirrored in the search bar:

@Dyolf77_WMF -- unfortunately, we weren't able to get this tested in time to deploy the help panel on tomorrow's planned date. My new estimate is Monday (June 22) or Tuesday (June 23). That said, you are encouraged to test the help panel and homepage on Arabic Beta on both desktop and mobile. Please point out any issues on this task. We expect everything to be working correctly in both features.

@Trizek-WMF done. ( Talk page)

Arabic Wikipedia community informed by the deployment.

Yes, the IDs sound good for me. Thanks.

Note that the first link (contents) is the same as the link to the main help page, and so this page will be linked to twice from the help panel (once from the first link in the bullet list, once from the link right below the bullet list). Is that desired/expected?

Yes it's expected.

When were the updates to the translations made? They probably did not make it into wmf.13 and so won't be in production until Thursday when wmf.14 is deployed.

Okay, it was on July 10th.

Testing both desktop and mobile with 4 new accounts.
Getting the survey for 2 of them.
I noticed that I got the older version of the translation for the survey not the updated one. It was working fine on beta wiki.

In the last paragraph, the email address of Benoît should be in the end not in the beginning of the sentence. If not possible, it would be better to show it in a separate line.

Please review the recommendation page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Growth/Communities/How_to_introduce_yourself_as_a_mentor
When ready, I'll mark it for translations.

@Dyolf77_WMF -- the welcome survey is ready for you to test in Beta wiki. You can try out the survey with these links:

• Desktop
• Mobile

Please let us know whether the translations all look okay, whether the links go to the right places, and if you find any issues with the interface.

• Desktop: (Privacy box) The link for "New User Welcome Survey Privacy Statement" goes to the English page. I think, we have an Arabic translation of it. (Did it here > https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Dyolf77_(WMF)/بيان_خصوصية_المستخدم_الجديد )

@MMiller_WMF no problem with these modifications. That's perfect, I already informed the community about possible slight changes.

@revi and @Dyolf77_WMF, is it correct?

• Define a date for the deployment with @Dyolf77_WMF

@Trizek-WMF I think we've discussed the schedule with @MMiller_WMF and have had these dates for the deployments:

+1 @Trizek-WMF and @revi too!

Can we activate the Flow on the help desk in beta?

Some feedback for the Help panel:

• While testing the help panel on beta, I see
  
  . Is it possible to move the question mark to the end of the sentence (to the left)?
• The translation I made for the interface was out of its context, now in the help panel I understand some ambiguous words, so I did a review of the translation on translatewiki.net. Is it possible to update the tool with the new translations?

Thanks.

Question about https://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/مساعدة:مقدمة_عن_الوصلات/1. What is the purpose of that /1/?

It seems that the مساعدة:مقدمة_عن_الوصلات page contains a redirect to مساعدة:مقدمة_عن_الوصلات/1

Also, concerning the help panel, we need to have the labels that would be displayed to users.

See the description

Thanks!

Thanks

Confirmed with @alanajjar , Namespaces in Arabic Wikipedia should be 0, 1, 6, 7. No additional namespaces.
