Hi. I'm currently translating the System messages at is:Special:Allmessages . But as you know, they don't get changed on any other Wiki or Wikipedia. Is there any way to get access to the main System message list so that I can translate the once that have yet to be translated to Icelandic. Thank you --Steinninn 06:13, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, but they say I shouldn't edit it. So where do I go to edit all of them. Is it possible or not? --Steinninn 06:30, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
- Those files are the main defaults for the MediaWiki code, at the wikimedia svn repository, they are the current defaults. That note at the top is just a warning to people who have installed it and are viewing those files on their own system, they are meant to be edited on svn.wikimedia.org (where those copies are). Although, you can't directly. You can submit changes to people with access there. Mostly I linked you to see what needed translating.
- But if you want to go all the way, you may wish to coordinate with the icelandic projects on wikimedia: wikipedia wiktionary wikibooks wikiquote wikisource. ^_^ --Splarka (talk) 07:06, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks. I've contacted one of the persons listed and waiting for a reply. Thanks for the help. --Steinninn 07:30, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
