Congrats on the beta launch! :)

Main Page probably needs a redirect to Abstract Wikipedia:Main Page (I landed on it by accident clicking "Random page"). Eloquence (talk) 17:28, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

Hi, MediaWiki:Lang or {{int:lang}} isn’t setup yet. Tanbiruzzaman (talk) 22:53, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

@Tanbiruzzaman: Ah, that's apparently something that @Lucas Werkmeister set up on Wikifunctions.org via a script — https://github.com/lucaswerkmeister/setup-int-lang, not a feature of the software itself. I don't know if he'd be interested in doing that here, or if you can run that code yourself? Jdforrester (WMF) (talk) 23:03, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

@Tanbiruzzaman, @Jdforrester (WMF): AFAIK the int:lang hack shouldn’t be necessary anymore – rather, enable $wgParserEnableUserLanguage to turn on the {{USERLANGUAGE}} magic word. (Compare e.g. T405830.) Lucas Werkmeister (talk) 23:06, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

Aha, awesome. I'll push a production config patch to enable that, once gerrit is back up. Thanks! Jdforrester (WMF) (talk) 23:08, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

@Tanbiruzzaman: Thanks to Lucas, {{USERLANGUAGE}} is now available here ("en"). Let's use that? Jdforrester (WMF) (talk) 13:59, 13 April 2026 (UTC)

Thanks.<3 Tanbiruzzaman (talk) 14:20, 13 April 2026 (UTC)
