Yes. I am already doing it when you updated the translation (but if I had Translation Administrator, I would have updated it immediately and update the other translations). Thanks for leaving me feedback.

Please do not do the following edits at once:

  • change variable names
  • split a translation unit into multiple units

It breaks the existing translations and makes migration(updating translations) hard!

Note that your edits affect ALL languages other than English.

Oh sorry for that. I was practicing for the translation markup. I will be careful for that, thx.

See and . In this case, replacing "ll" with "Special:MyLanguage" makes translations hard to update.

Baris6161TURK (talkcontribs)

Aww... It's bad that the translations are being hard to update... It is so disappointing.

About Manual:Upgrading/ja. Why did you insert Japanese translation?

Sorry for inserting (actually updating) your native translations. I was fixing the translations for better experience. Not only for Japanese language, I also do that for other translations. And for the variable names, I was trying to remove red links from Special:WantedPages to prevent populating there. Adding $1, $2, $3, $4, etc. are much better to add them without a variable names. I was saw some translation that they were translating thr variable names. So yeah, I was trying to maintain this wiki for better experience.

See Special:Diff/4453829. Use the following style:

<translate>
== Heading1 ==
</translate>
<translate>Sentence1.</translate>
<translate>Sentence2.</translate>

instead of:

<translate>
== Heading 1 ==

Sentence1.</translate> <translate>Sentence2.</translate>

Alright I will do that. I was being confused which I should do for mark-ups. Thanks for giving me examples.
