Enable the TemplateData GUI editor on Norwegian Bokmål Wikipedia
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Just discovered this tool, and since it makes it so much easier to add TemplateData, it would be a huge improvement for us template editors, and consequently for the VisualEditor users out there. Can't see any reason it should be controversial, but if requested I'll bring it up in our village pump.

Enable TemplateData GUI on Norwegian Bokmål (nowiki)

Currently scheduled for 15:00 UTC on Tuesday 2 September; we can postpone it if there are an issues.

There is no consensus at WP:Tinget, and that would usually take at least a week. There is a notice about this at WP:Torget, but this page is not used for project wide decisions at nowiki.

Before final consensus is reached all system messages should be translated and necessary help pages created. Only then should this be scheduled.

In short, this request is invalid.

This isn't really seeking a "decision", in the same way that most of the hundreds of improvements which are rolled out every week.

Your input on https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translate&action=proofread&group=ext-templatedata&language=nb&filter=translated%7C%21reviewer%3A8576%7C%21last-translator%3A8576 is of course welcome in ensuring that. :-)

and necessary help pages created.

Obviously you're not suggesting that WMF should interfere with a project and re-write their help pages here, I assume. :-)

Start to involve the projects in the decision process, or at least don't try to override existing processes. This request does _NOT_ follow due process and will interfere with the project own decision.

Why does it seem like I always repeat myself.. ;/
