Topic on User talk:Yurik/Flow

Greetings! We plan to ask to create a private wiki for the Arbitration Committee of the Russian Wikipedia, but then we don’t want to fork all the templates we need into it. User:Amire80 said you can suggest some solutions for this problem. Since adding some extensions during creation is probably easier than adding them later, it would be important for us, if such a solution exists, to find it now.

Best regards, Dmitry

Приветствую! Мы планируем попросить сделать приватную вики для арбитражного комитета русской Википедии, но не хочется потом тащить в неё все необходимые для оформления шаблоны. User:Amire80 сказал что вы можете подсказать какие-то решения. Так как добавлять какие-то расширения при создании наверное проще, чем добавлять их потом, то для нас было бы важно, если такое решение существует, узнать о нём заранее.

Hi @Carn, the dibabel tool at the moment can only work with the public wikis -- those that can be linked from Wikidata. It would require substantial rework to support other wikis.

Thank you very much, I was thinking more about the {{:ru:Template:u}} mechanism, templates are easier to copy manually.

Yeah, those you will just have to copy/paste manually. One day I do hope that private wikis will be able to use Help:Tabular Data (actually they might be already?). Having access to the data namespace on commons would allow single place translation for all of the wikis.

We already can do this through lua modules, but I don't personally have an examples of i18n that modules keep on Commons.
