Description

At the moment, it seems that groups that are not set as priority language for a language, are still part of an aggregate group. Example:

A. A central notice banner group does not have Dutch as priority language. See https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&language=nl&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-WLPA_alt&filter=&action=translate#msg_WLPA_alt-URL-1

B. This group is part of the aggregate group "CentralNotice Banners": https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup&language=nl&filter=!translated&action=translate

Observed:
I. A message like "http://wikilovespublicart.org/english-pages/" is part of the aggregate group in Dutch.

Expected:
II. If groups are discouraged for a language, the messages of those groups should not be part of any aggregate group for that language.

Expected:
II. If groups are discouraged for a language, the messages of those groups
should not be part of any aggregate group for that language.

Aggregate groups are not based on languages. So what do you mean by 'aggregate group for a l language'?

Siebrand, ping

We have:
I. translatable page A
II. translatable page B. B can only be translated in language 1.
III. aggregate group C consists of translatable pages A and B.

Expected behavior:
IV: On Special:LanguageStats for language 2, B is not shown as child of C if there are no translations for C.
V: On Special:LanguageStats for language 2, B is shown as child of C if there are translations for C.

Rewriting the above comment with typo fixes as Siebrand told me

We have:
I. translatable page A
II. translatable page B. B can only be translated in language 1.
III. aggregate group C consists of translatable pages A and B.

Expected behavior:
IV: On Special:LanguageStats for language 2, B is not shown as child of C if
there are no translations for B.
V: On Special:LanguageStats for language 2, B is shown as child of C if there
are translations for B.

Case V looks invalid to me, since B is not allowed to have translations in langauge 2 as per II.

In the master, because of Bug 47879 fix, case IV is passing.

If Siebrand confirms case V is invalid, then the bug can be closed

V. is possibly confusing, since we have forced limited languages and advised limited languages. With forced limited languages, the requirement is not valid. With advised limited languages, it is. Apologies for all the potential confusion, but it is a consequence of our large feature set...

Change 69639 abandoned by Santhosh:
Show stats for groups in aggregate group if there are translations

Reason:
Not the correct solution or solution need discussion

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/69639

Looking at the code, discouraged translatable pages are excluded from aggregate message groups.
