Since we use بحث_کاربر on fawiki, I don't think this needs consensus, does it?

Which wiki(s)?

zhwikisource

Default set to chinese, with english aliases?

What about the talk namespace?

Hmm about talk namespace name it's not easy.

"作者" is written the same in simplified and traditional Chinese while the Chinese word for "talk" is not...

Currently, author pages are written in Main namespace starting with "作者:" and author talk pages are "Talk:作者:*". What do you suggest?

zhwiki is set as english default and chinese aliases. so i suggest it to be english default in zhwikisource.

so it will be:

'作者' -> 'Author'
'作者讨论' -> 'Author talk'
'作者討論' -> 'Author talk'

'作者' -> 'Author'
'作者讨论' -> 'Author talk'
'作者討論' -> 'Author talk'

This would be fine too. Sysops should set [[MediaWiki:Conversion-ns102]] and [[MediaWiki:Conversion-ns103]] afterwards.

'zhwikisource' => array(  // Added on 2009-03-19 per bug 15722
        102 => 'Author',
        103 => 'Author_talk',
        104 => 'Page',
        105 => 'Page_talk',
        106 => 'Index',
        107 => 'Index_talk',
),

Done
