Problem: When I'm translating an article in the wikipedia translation page and I save my work and close the page before publishing, all my references get lost and the page only displays a message that says something like "the content is in another source", then when I look into the "references" section, it's all blank, so I have to errase all the citations and write them again.
Who would benefit: Translators and editors
Proposed solution: Save the references in the same format that the article is written so they don't get lost when saving before publishing. I don't know much about programming so excuse me if I don´t give a better proposal.
More comments: It's a problem that only arises if the translation is saved and the page closed before publishing. When publishing the article before saving and closing, references stay fine.
@Pginer:, I think this will interest you. Braulio, there are a lot of different issues with references in the ContentTranslation tool (see tracker in [1]). It will be helpful if you can give specific examples to identify when is still causing trouble.--FAR (talk) 11:16, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support A translation of the citation template (not of the text of the reference itself which has to be preserved in its original language) to the destination language would be highly appreciated. Shinkolobwe (talk) 16:44, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
