Pls add Malayalam Translation too

Hi ,

Kindly addd Malayalam Translation with these languages. It will help lots of malayalees to read and understand about many things. Can you please help me to include my language to this list.

Regards, One of the fan of Wikipedia.

Candidates page

I've reverted all "done" flags for the page "Candidates" because nobody provided a complete translation of candidates' statements. Please check the English page --FollowTheMedia 09:43, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank you! The candidates page can't really be "done" until all candidates are translated. As someone suggested it might also be a good idea to list the candidate translation separately to better reflect the work that needs to be done there. Jon Harald Søby 16:13, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Translation help

I wished to translate this page to Marathi and so also many other pages in wiki. But I somehow do to understand/know how to do the same. Please help to translate this article and many others to come in Marathi.

Italian Canadidates Page/Pagina Candidati Italiana

The Italian candidates page is completely translated, could someone please mark it as such? La pagina italiana dei cnadidati è completamente tradotta, qualcuno potrebbe per favore marcarla come done?

There will probably be more candidates, so it is probably better to wait with that until the candidacy period is over. Jon Harald Søby 08:29, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Editing Procedure (for bangali editors)

এটা কি প্রয়োজনীয়, wiki তে সম্পূর্ন বাংলা ব্যবহার করা? কারণ ক্ষেত্র বিশেষে, কিছু কিছু বাংলা শব্দ অধিকাংশ মানুষের কাছে একেবারেই অপরিচিত। আমরা যেমন আজ অভ্র দিয়ে সহজে বাংলা লিখতে পারি, তেমনি কি বাংলাতে মিশ্র ভাষা থাকলে খুব খারাপ হবে। মতামত জানাবেন... why are there so many boxs?????? What are ypu even saying

Edit permissions on translatewiki

Hi - the Chinese versions of voting messages needs to be translated, but I don't have the permissions to edit anything on translatewiki. My username there is the same as here (Deryck Chan). Or if an admin there would prefer to edit directly, my translations are as follows:

securepoll-too-new

• en: Sorry, you cannot vote. Your account needs to have been registered before $1 to vote in this election, you registered on $2.
• zh-hant: 對不起，您不能投票。$1 之前登記的帳戶才能在這次選舉中投票，而你登記的日期是 $2 。
• zh-hans: 对不起，您不能投票。$1 之前登记的帐户才能在这次选举中投票，而你登记的日期是 $2 。

securepoll-round

• en: Round $1
• zh-hant: 第$1輪
• zh-hans: 第$1轮

securepoll-spoilt

• en: (Spoilt)
• zh-hant: (廢票)
• zh-hans: (废票)

securepoll-exhausted

• en: (Exhausted)
• zh-hant: (用盡)
• zh-hans: (用尽)

Thanks. Deryck Chan 23:06, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

Please request translator rights on translatewiki.net. You need these in order to translate. This process should be quick, but if you have problems, either with the rights or with learning how to translate, you are welcome to leave a message on my talk page at translatewiki.net (same user name) or on support. Lloffiwr 16:21, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Requested. Fingers crossed :S Deryck Chan 13:10, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

Permission granted and edited! Deryck Chan 13:10, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Create pages which won't be translated?

On the Welsh translation we will not be translating the candidates' statements, since we prefer to read these in the original English. Do we need to create the page anyway and save it unamended as /cy? If we didn't do this for the candidates' statements, or any other of the pages in this collection, would Welsh users clicking on links to pages not set up for Welsh be directed away from the Welsh language collection of pages, and be unable to return to the Welsh language interface? Lloffiwr 21:25, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

Have created all pages in set, in case needed. All pages now ready to be posted. Lloffiwr 11:29, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

I believe this should be Done. Let me know if you have any problems. Ral315 (talk) 00:59, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

I have voted using the Welsh interface, and would like to thank Ral315 for uploading these pages. Lloffiwr 18:20, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Update Japanese inferface-m

Board elections/2011/Vote interface/ja had very serious errors. Now it's corrected so please update the interface messages asap. Thank you.--aokomoriuta 15:14, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi. The page on SPI server was updated, but w:ja:Special:SecurePoll/vote/200 and commons:Special:SecurePoll/vote/200 (when lang is ja) has not been updated yet. Could you please update those introduction pages too? Thanks. --Penn Station 11:55, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

Yiddish interface

The Yiddish interface is using an intermediate partially translated version. Please update to the most recent version. --Redaktor 06:30, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Adding the Kyrgyz-language part

Dear all, We need to add the Kyrgyz-language section (ky). See:

{{be11-translation
 |code               = ky
 |intro and rules    = Алгы сөз жана эрежелер
 |warning            = Эскертүү
 |warning2           = Эскертүү2
 |warning3           = Эскертүү3
 |warning4           = Эскертүү4
 |warning5           = Эскертүү5
 |candidates         = Талапкерлер
 |results            = Жыйынтыгы
 |committee          = Комитет
 |vote interface-m   = Добуш интерфейси-m
 |vote interface     = Добуш интерфейси
 |navigation menu    = Издөө аргалары
 |candidate template = Талапкер үчүн калып
 |email              = Э-кат дареги 
}}

Best, TchT.

Add Gujarati

We need to add the Gujarati(gu) Language.

"In other languages" template

The "In other languages" template on top of the election pages aren't showing Chinese (simplified nor traditional). I clicked the "edit" button there but it doesn't point me to the right page to edit. Can someone get that fixed? Deryck Chan 16:43, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

One of the meta users who has the right permissions needs to "publish" the Chinese pages. We translators cannot do this ourselves. You might try to request publication of the Chinese translation on the translators-l list; that sometimes gets a quicker response. Lloffiwr 18:39, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

The problem is that the Template:Other languages can only handle up to 60 languages. Markus Schulze 19:44, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Is there any way to fix this? Chinese will always be the one left out then... --Bencmq 23:05, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

This problem can easily be fixed, but only by someone who has the right to edit this template. He simply has to add the following text:

-->{{#if:{{{61|}}}|{{Other languages/link|{{{61|}}}|page={{{page|}}}}}}} <!--
-->{{#if:{{{62|}}}|{{Other languages/link|{{{62|}}}|page={{{page|}}}}}}} <!--
-->{{#if:{{{63|}}}|{{Other languages/link|{{{63|}}}|page={{{page|}}}}}}} <!--
-->{{#if:{{{64|}}}|{{Other languages/link|{{{64|}}}|page={{{page|}}}}}}} <!--
-->{{#if:{{{65|}}}|{{Other languages/link|{{{65|}}}|page={{{page|}}}}}}} <!--
-->{{#if:{{{66|}}}|{{Other languages/link|{{{66|}}}|page={{{page|}}}}}}} <!--

Tracking publication of pages

In the table recording the status of translations of the 2011 board elections, the status "done" is not being changed to "published" when a page is published. This is leaving us translators uncertain as to whether a language has been published or not. Lloffiwr 18:43, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Scots

Would someone add "Scots" to the list of languages? I could make the translation.--Rabbie Barns 12:06, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

I have added "gd" (for "Scottish Gaelic") and "sco" (for "Scots"). Markus Schulze 12:27, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

Subject of email send to wp-nl is wrong

Can somebody change the subject of the email send to members of wp-nl from Wikimedia Foundation Elections 2009 to Wikimedia Foundation Elections 2011? MrBlueSky 12:18, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

The email in zh-hans/zh-hant are also titled 2009. May be a issue across all languages? --Bencmq 14:30, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
