About this board

Alex Mashin (talkcontribs)

This extension seems to be uninstallable with Composer. After composer require, its directory cannot be found either in extensions or in vendor/mediawiki.

As I said on your other thread, this indeed isn't a thing generally, and a bad idea. Can you not use the normal extension installation process?

Alex Mashin (talkcontribs)

I can indeed. But can the extension developers not create fake Composer packages?

MediaWiki - CLDR language codes problem for Konkani

2
The Discoverer (talkcontribs)

There is a mismatch between the language codes for Konkani in MediaWiki and CLDR; due to this, the localised text for Konkani is not appearing in Topic Containers and other places. I have created a ticket to correct this in CLDR. I would be grateful if the Wikimedia community could support this situation in any way.

A clarification. This only supports the ISO 639-1 codes right? Not the three-letter ISO 639-2 codes which exist for a wider array of languages. Or is that a limitation in how {{#language}} is implemented?

Nemo bis (talkcontribs)

No, this supports (aspirationally) any ISO 639-3 locale. The best overview is probably .

André Costa (WMSE) (talkcontribs)

Thanks. That list seems to be using a mixture between ISO 639-1 codes and ISO 639-3 codes. Looks specifically like it only uses the 639-3 code if there is no 639-1 code.

Meanwhile our implementation through {{#language:}} only seems to support the 639-1 codes.

Example:

Language 639-1 639-3 CLDR {{#language:<639-1>}} {{#language:<639-3>}}
Afar aa aar aa Qafár af aar
Acoli - ach ach - ach
Nemo bis (talkcontribs)

That's an unwarranted conclusion; we simply don't have that language name yet. There's plenty of ISO 639-3 codes.

André Costa (WMSE) (talkcontribs)

Ok. Just found a 639-3 example which works (粵語). Still would a clarification for Usage and parameters saying something which boils down to "ISO 639 = ISO 639-1 if exists otherwise ISO 639-3" be correct?

Nemo bis (talkcontribs)

Should be in general, as it's the policy described in and we follow the same (as most software in the world, I believe). You may just link Manual:Language#Language code.

André Costa (WMSE) (talkcontribs)

That was teh one I was looking for =). Added a comment now. Thanks

Yug (talkcontribs)

I created a converter iso 639-3 to iso 639-2 and another iso 639-2 to iso 639-3, see Template:To_iso_639-3 and Template:To_iso_639-2 sur la base de en:List_of_ISO_639-1_codes. This pose several issues since there is more 639-3 than 639-2. It's not perfect, but it helps us to convert iso 639-3 "mar" into "mr" thanks to {To_iso_639-2} then into "Bangla" thanks to {{#language:mr|en}}.

Mapping country names to ISO codes

1
أحمد (talkcontribs)

The return value of CountryNames::getNames seems to be an array of country names in the desired language, i.e the language whose code is passed in the call. Is the array an indexed array of codes and names? Otherwise, how can one use this to map codes to names? My use case is an extension that provides a parser function {{#country:countrycode [, languagecode]}} to return a country name in the preferred language, or if no language is specified, in the content language. much like

tank for you

Wargo (talkcontribs)

As you see in section "Updating data", you download file core.zip and then unpack to extensions directory. You can run commands under "example" when you are in "extensions/cldr" directory.

Sokote zaman (talkcontribs)

I did according to the "Updating data" section but to no avail

Wargo (talkcontribs)

Move files extracted from "core.zip" to "core" subdirectory of "extensions/cidr".

Sokote zaman (talkcontribs)

He had done this before:Move files extracted from "core.zip" to "core" subdirectory of "extensions/cidr".

It is useless

Wargo (talkcontribs)

Whay you have in "extensions/cidr/core"?
