The text on http://wikia.com/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&action=edit is currently in the wrong language for some reason. Lcarsdata (Talk) 16:35, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Could you say more specificially what's wrong (or what was wrong -- maybe it's not wrong anymore)? I looked but didn't notice anything odd. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 17:33, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
It could be your language is set to something else in preferences? Btw, you don't need Wikia:User talk:Lcarsdata as a redirect if you use w: instead of wikia: in your signature (same alias, but without breaking on central, also wikicities: but that is deprecated). --Splarka (talk) 22:02, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
Something's definately wrong. I'll explain in a bit more detail. If you want to edit a protected page, and your not an admin, you normally get the following text:
This page has been locked to prevent editing; there are a number of reasons why this may be so, please see protection.
You can view and copy the source of this page:
But when you try to edit a system message such as this one (which is protected by default), it shows the following text in German:
Diese Seite enthält Text für die Sprachoberfläche der Software. Systemnachrichten sind grundsätzlich gesperrt, um groben Unfug zu verhindern. Sie können jedoch von Administratoren bearbeitet werden.
According to Google, this translates to:
This side contains text for the language surface of the software. System messages are in principle closed, in order to prevent rough mischief. They can be worked on however by administrators. 
Please could someone fix this. --Leon2323 19:45, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

The translated version of MediaWiki:Protectedinterface accidentally was put in the english default, instead of in MediaWiki:Protectedinterface/de. Fixed. --Splarka (talk) 01:53, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
