Translation requestWysig
Hello.
Can you translate and upload the article en:List of mammals of Azerbaijan in Afrikaans Wikipedia? Or is there a specific translation request page in Afrikaans Wikipedia where I can add it?

Valse vriendeWysig
Goeie dag, waarvoor hierdie wysiging? Is daardie terme nie valse vriende nie? – K175 (skil 'n appeltjie) 16:52, 19 Augustus 2020 (UTC)
- Het nie gedink dat hulle voorbeelde daarvan is nie. "Dutch" is bv. 'n valse vriend van wat? Van Duits? Ons het ook "Nederduits" en "Diets" in Afrikaans, wat albei Nederlands (of iets in dier voege) beteken, en dit beteken nie dat enige van die twee, of drie, valse vriende is nie. Hulle is eerder sinonieme, of verwante begrippe. En "Germany" is 'n valse vriend van Germanië? Ek voel hulle is effektief dieselde woord vir nouverwante onderwerpe. Wie se Germanië is in elk geval ter sprake, dié van die Romeine of dié van Hitler, of dalk nog iemand anders se idee daarvan? Sal versigtig wees om valse vriende toe te pas waar landsgrense of volksgroepe van toepassing is, want dis subjektiewe onderwerpe. JMK (kontak) 18:28, 19 Augustus 2020 (UTC)
Ontkiemingskompetisie is oopWysig
Hi JMK, die Wikipedia:Ontkiemingskompetisie/2020 is nou oop. Sal bly wees indien jy ook deelneem! Groete, -- Aliwal2012 07:14, 23 Desember 2020 (UTC)
Ek sien ek het in my TV onderhoud verkeerdelik na bogenoemde as SAS President Steyn verwys. Ouderdom... Groete! Oesjaar (kontak) 05:38, 4 Maart 2022 (UTC)
Die vygies!Wysig
Dankie vir hulp die afgelope paar jaar! Sien vygies op Plants of the World Online. Ek gaan hulle lys van genera (geslagte) oordra na ons artikel oor vygies. Laasgenoemde is jare agter... Enige beswaar? Groete! Oesjaar (kontak) 14:16, 26 Julie 2022 (UTC)
- Dit lyk reg, ons moet hulle net siteer. Ek het 'n paar fotos by die botaniese tuin geneem van een van die Beesvygies, Ruschia maxima, wat nuttig mag wees om daardie spesie of genus te beskryf.
Language switchingWysig
Hello! When you pinged me about the issue with the order of the language links, I was not at work. But I'm back now.
Thanks for pointing at this problem. Personally, I'm not the subject matter expert but I know something based on what my colleagues have already posted.
Our team (Web) has only moved the language switcher from the sidebar to a separate menu. So we've only changed the location to increase the discoverability of any language(s). How the language switching works exactly (how relevant languages are suggested to a user) is within the area of the Language team. And what I know from them is this (this is a quote from this discussion):
- The language selector uses different clues to figure out which are the recommended languages. For example, top priority is based on the previous selections. That is, a user that frequently reads in French, Japanese and Igbo would get those always in their suggestions for pages available in those languages. Similarly, the browser languages are considered next if it was not possible to fill the suggestions with the previous criteria. Additional criteria can be considered in cases where it is hard to fill the suggestions because of the languages in which content is available (something which will vary significantly from page to page).
- Some of the criteria based on location or relation to content may need some polishing in some cases (data is based on CLDR [perhaps this is about Extension:CLDR? - SG] and can be improved). In any case, as mentioned above, for a user that speaks and uses a given set of languages, in practical terms the suggestions are going to surface those (even if some of the additional suggestions are sub-optimal at times). In contrast, with the classical approach of a flat list, a speaker of a language with low Wikipedia coverage would have to scan long lists of languages to find whether the content is available in theirs (which may not be in mosts cases), and they would have to do that every single time without the system making it easier after the first try.
- More detail about the criteria for suggested languages is described here. We also have some mockups of a more expanded feature.
Does this help you understand our thought process and how the software works? Please let me know what you think and if you have additional questions. Thanks, SGrabarczuk (WMF) (kontak) 22:38, 23 Januarie 2023 (UTC)
