It's still ongoing, but I'm not sure what workboard to put it on.

Some Lua basics [[T227557]] from Wikimania.

For later on, quite a few of this user's edits are on the list since they were unsourced.

I think the point was to have the list in an etherpad, where it's easier to avoid edit conflicts. The list also loads really slowly (I have a crappy internet connection).

@Okhjon : I've created an etherpad for this: https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/P91

Could we use an etherpad-based list or similar? The Wikidata userpage takes a looonng time to load and even more to save, making edits prone to conflicts. You can avoid that by editing only a subsection but when you move Q items from a section to another (e.g. Google Books -sourcing) you must edit the whole page. I’m losing a lot of time making one edit per item to avoid edit conflicts.

I'm adding 3 tables where it is easy to see what language versions the person has an article in. I think this should make it easier to check if the article already has references that can be used in Wikidata.

Etherpad for the hackathon

Other anomalies: the Sámi or Sami?

Note: The tables for this ticket need to be updated.

Where do you mean? In labels in items like https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2320

This link @Susannaanas found is also great: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Identify_problems_with_adding_new_languages_into_Wikidata

Here's an example of the Wikimedia Commons category page language selectors above for languages that have already been added elsewhere, but are still showing ISO codes in Commons:

A minor nitpicky issue with the Ume Saami version; the autonym has been split into two different words, when it should all be one word like it has been when entering the word in this screenshot (and like it's written in the table in the ticket description):

@Nikki : that's Finnish, yes. And I'm not sure how I managed to confuse autonyms with the name in Finnish (or in Northern Saami, which is what I usually use the UI in). I'll have to look into what's in CLDR again in these languages (and the other Saami languages too). Thanks!

Funnily enough they show up correctly in the caption box in Commons.

Oh I will so be using this this weekend!

@Urbanecm : thanks!

UI translations are done at Translatewiki.net. There's some information at https://translatewiki.net/wiki/FAQ#How_to_add_a_new_language but I'm not sure exactly which languages they allow.

It's not a technical requirement. It's a process requirement by the Language committee. So this particular thing doesn't require any technical work, but a policy change.

For Wikidata, since labels form part of the UI,

Any idea when this is going to start working? It'd be really nice to be able to use these languages in Wikidata right now for the Wikimania Menu Challenge that's going on.

These points are still relevant halfway through 2019.

Thanks, @Lea_Lacroix_WMDE !

I've removed sju, sjd, and rmf out of this task as redundant. Thanks!

This shouldn't be time-consuming to do, since this has been done recently for other Saami languages, for example, part of T222309.

@Urbanecm : they could be divided up into separate tickets if need be.

@Tulsi_Bhagat : I would appreciate it if you did it. Thanks.

I've added the templates for all of the Saami languages except for Kemi.

It was already possibly to use Southern and Northern Saami for captions, and now Inari and Skolt Saami can be too. The remaining Saami languages still cannot be used for captions as of today.

This is wonderful, thank you all so much! This opens up so many new possibilities for us!
