Welcome to Wikimedia Incubator!

At the right there are some important links, and here are some tips and info:

• If you haven't created a user page yet, please create one with for example Babel templates on it.
• You can select your interface language in your preferences.
• If you make articles, templates or categories, don't forget to add a prefix!
• If your knowledge of English is good, you can help with translating pages to other languages you know, so more people can understand it!
• If you want to translate the interface, please go to Translatewiki.net and follow the instructions.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them on Incubator:Community Portal.

Unfortunately, Mediawiki currently imposes a limit of 255 bytes to a page title, resulting in the last symbol of the title of the above linked page being cut off when you moved it, leaving a "S1dc2" at the end. Until this issue can be fixed, one way to go around it is to remove the sorting prefix of some blocks until it's shorter than 255 characters. --Yair rand (talk) 22:00, 26 November 2013 (UTC)

• I was just thinking that was the case. I just noticed that was how that original page title was accepted in the first place when I noticed your message. Thanks for verifying what I need to do.

A few things

• Re your posts on Translatewiki's Support page: Neither the brackets around edit section buttons nor those around the table of contents' show/hide buttons are localizable at the moment. These issues are bug 57818 and bug 57518 on Bugzilla.
• I see that you changed the translations of "Main page" on Translatewiki. Should the page Wp/ase/AS18517S20500S2ff00M529x544S2ff00482x483S20500519x504S18517503x517 also be moved?
• In the translations you just added for messages including the word "log(s)", are you using the same ASL terms for "log" as you used in other messages for "history"? If so, that could be problematic. The uses of the words in Mediawiki have very different connotations. For example, at the top of every "View history" ("M525x524S2ff00482x483S10e00507x494S26500511x474 M514x523S11541487x478S22f04489x509") page, there's a link to that page's "logs" (protection logs, deletion logs, patrol logs, move logs, etc.) with the text "View logs for this page" (per your current translation, "M525x524S2ff00482x483S10e00507x494S26500511x474 M531x512S15a37501x488S1f550507x495S20e00487x499S26502469x498 M514x523S11541487x478S22f04489x509"), and if those are using the same word to refer to them, the reader is likely to be confused.
  • I think I have changed all of the terms with "log" now. M534x526S26504512x474S26514474x474S15050508x495S15058467x495 M538x545S2ff00482x483S14c20515x472S22b03508x510S20500495x534 M539x532S20500495x521S10011518x499S2ff00482x483 (talk) 23:17, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

• It was worth a try to see if I could find it.
• Yeah, it probably should be moved, but I think it will need to have the Spelling Sequence in it. Should the page be moved, or should we first try to do the Spelling Sequence? It might take a while for it.
• That's right. I didn't remember there was a View History already. Hmm... I will have to think of something else for logs.

I don't actually know what a Spelling Sequence is, unfortunately... :/ --Yair rand (talk) 23:02, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

It's just some information that say what symbols come first for "alphabetical" orderings. Many of the pages do not have it yet either, so it is something that needs to be done with them as well. M534x526S26504512x474S26514474x474S15050508x495S15058467x495 M538x545S2ff00482x483S14c20515x472S22b03508x510S20500495x534 M539x532S20500495x521S10011518x499S2ff00482x483 (talk) 23:09, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

• Your two most recent translations, translatewiki:MediaWiki:Metadata/ase and translatewiki:MediaWiki:Vector-action-addsection/ase, seem to have the same content as each other... --Yair rand (talk) 21:45, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

• You are right. I think I didn't copy the next coding when I thought I had. It should be correct now. M534x526S26504512x474S26514474x474S15050508x495S15058467x495 M538x545S2ff00482x483S14c20515x472S22b03508x510S20500495x534 M539x532S20500495x521S10011518x499S2ff00482x483 (talk) 23:51, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

  Thanks. :) --Yair rand (talk) 00:01, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

(I don't have an account at translatewiki, so I can't fix it myself, sorry.) --Yair rand (talk) 14:31, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

• Thanks for catching that. You are right that it should have been $1 rather than &1. M534x526S26504512x474S26514474x474S15050508x495S15058467x495 M538x545S2ff00482x483S14c20515x472S22b03508x510S20500495x534 M539x532S20500495x521S10011518x499S2ff00482x483 (talk) 14:47, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

Written ASL Wikibook

Hi! Based off of your involvement with the ASL wikipedia, I was hoping you might be interested in contributing to the SignWriting section on the wikibook on ASL writing systems.[1] If we had a wikibook that taught people how to use SignWriting, we might get a lot more contributors to the ASL wikipedia project! :)
