[wiki] russian entries on english wiki

Examples:
http://textpattern.net/wiki/index.php?title=feed_link
http://textpattern.net/wiki/index.php?title=link_feed_link

contain russian entries on subheadings of the section “Attributes”
All tag pages seem to be affected.
Probably a problem with internationalisation files.

i thought i’d say that here, as i have no idea, who maintains this.
(that info would help for the future, too, thanx!)

A hole turned upside down is a dome, when there’s also gravity.

Re: [wiki] russian entries on english wiki

Fixed. Someone (Fu-tai?) had changed a template.

Btw, it’s a wiki, so the community maintains it ;)

@Destry, can you look into this as well, because I think Fu-Tai is working on Russian translations and I suspect that’s the reason he changed that “common presentational attributes” template (my knowledge of mediawiki is rather limited)

Re: [wiki] russian entries on english wiki

Erm… Well, for one thing, there is a whole heck of a lot more templates created since I last looked at them. It seems they are being used now to serve up various kinds or combinations of tag attributes. That makes sense, I guess, but on the downside, the more templates there are, the more difficult it becomes for people to translate, most likely.

Actually, I think this is one of those instances where it doesn’t pay to make every page in the wiki open to anyone to edit. E.g., language translations are supposed to mimic the wiki’s pages, templates, and categories structure, rather than edit English versions. I think the English lang templates, at least, should be controlled by a given, and informed, few. (Jsoo looks to have really ran with the templates, so he’s a good candidate for maintaining the tag attribute templates, actually. But anyone with a front-side admin account could do so (share the load), while templates are locked to everyone else.)
