Central Notice admin comments

@Manfred Werner (WMAT): I saw that you created the campaign and everything looks good. Just checking: are there any plans for separate banner requests for specific countries? Thinking ahead in case that’s needed. Let me know if you need anything. Best, --Soylacarli (talk) 18:24, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for checking it and for the message! It is one banner design for all different language versions. There are some translations of the text in the central notice and there will be some different links to translated landing pages (I will update this until the beginning of the banner campaign). This should work with the script included with the banner; we already used this last year and it worked then. Best, Manfred Werner (WMAT) (talk) 18:45, 20 April 2026 (UTC)
