Description

Not urgent but it's a bit confusing, one is used to it and assumes it does both.

Outcome

  • Implemented functionality to move talk pages along with the translatable pages, if present.
  • Talk pages that are translatable still need to be moved separately.

See screenshot below,

talk-page-output.png (686×1 px, 128 KB)

  1. User:Abijeet Patro/To Moved has a talk page that will be moved.
  2. Translations:User:Abijeet Patro/To Moved/1/en-gb has a talk page that will be moved.
  3. User talk:Abijeet Patro/To Moved/es has a translatable talk page that has to be moved separately.

This functionality is also available via the moveTranslatablePage.php script.

Documentation has been updated here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:Translate/Move_translatable_page

Just a note that this still causes lots of broken links (when moving translatable pages, via bug 60920), see e.g. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meta:Babel#Moving_Programs:Evaluation_portal .

Yes, IMHO this is not a feature request but a proper bug, per https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_delete_redirects

Came across this bug (feature request?) with the renaming of "Audiences" back to "Product" (see revision note here: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Product/New_Content_Program_Metrics_Reports&oldid=3286950; I added the redirect after encountering this)

Thanks to T168591, non-translatable sub-pages can be moved behind, but still not talk pages? What a strange behavior!

For pages that are going to be moved will have a "Has talk page" label next to them.

The user will have the option to move them which is enabled by default.

We're currently working on improving the code to reduce the number of database operations that we have to do. Once that is in place, we will re-implement (from the existing patch in review) the talk page move functionality on top of it.
