presentation: Main page in french holds News in english
Hi all , Although the template::Main page /fr is correctly rendered, the main page as called from the upper left logo of user interface in FRench still holds the News section in ENglish. Seems the FR translated template is not called correctly around:
{{dir|{{#invoke:Caller title|lang|base=Template:Main_page}}|2=ltr|3=rtl}}.svg|20px|middle|link=|class=skin-invert-image]]</span><span>Learn and contribute</span></h3>
Deeper analysis is requested.Thank you. -- Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 17:09, 22 January 2026 (UTC)
- This is also true for any other language. If I select Deutsch in my local preferences, then the main page appears in DE as expected but the News section called "Neuigkeiten" remains in english; lack of consistency. -- Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 17:41, 22 January 2026 (UTC)
- Page https://www.wikifunctions.org/wiki/Template:Main_page/fr is correct and contains the translated news. So it seems the main page is generated another way (...?) -- Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 11:01, 5 February 2026 (UTC)
- @Christian you're right, I caught that a while back. I thought it was just a caching issue then, but it’s actually from how the template is included.
- Hi @Sannita (WMF), looks like we made a slip-up here. Maybe we should have used the localized syntax for the template like this:
{{Main page/News/{{int:lang}}}}or any other appropriate way. --Mdktb (talk) 05:04, 18 February 2026 (UTC)- @Mdktb Can I ask you for the precise syntax to include, so that I can edit accordingly? Thanks. Sannita (WMF) (talk) 16:01, 18 February 2026 (UTC)
Remove link to Special:RunFunction from "Get started" section
This gives no affordances to new users. There are already suggested functions and a link to the Catalogue. YoshiRulz (talk) 19:03, 22 January 2026 (UTC)
sitenotice: the translated version must be displayed in the language set in UI preferences
Hi all I have defined in preferences FR as the language of my user interface. Although the french version of the site notice exists under -> https://www.wikifunctions.org/wiki/Template:Sitenotice/Wikifunctions_is_a_new_project/fr, when I open the Main page of Wikifunctions for example, the sitenotice remains in EN while this main page correctly displays FR (and all further pages keep the EN sitenotice also). For coherence how do we call the FR sitenotice in this case ? Thanks. -- Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 22:47, 3 February 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks. I have commented too. After making several tests I deduced that calling -> {{MediaWiki:Sitenotice}} provides the right translation results but calling -> {{Sitenotice/Wikifunctions is a new project}} shows me the EN version. May be investigation should be on where the call to Sitenotice is done for Wikifunctions. Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 19:24, 7 February 2026 (UTC)
