Nikerabbit added a comment to T401175: Improve selection of messages in Special:TranslationStash.

I think some mark-up might be interesting to keep, to see how the translators handle it. Then again, this is just check if they can choose a correct language and provide reasonable looking translations.

Nikerabbit closed T334419: Set up translatewiki.net exports to push (and merge) to Wikimedia GitLab as Resolved.

I'm going to be bold and close this. I've seen people confused whether translatewiki.net supports GitLab (we do). The context for this task when there were plans to migrate everything to Gitlab. The current process works for adding one repository at a time without too much overhead. Only thing missing that could still be added is mediawiki-i18n-check with possibility of using to automatically merge pull requests.

The case of #FORMAL illustrates why the rules should be able to consider the MW version and the message content, but it’s not language-dependent. Could you add an example highlighting the need for restricting certain rules to certain languages? I can’t think of any.
