Hi, I'm Giorgx12 and I like translating in all the Wikimedia's projects. I just made a request on MediaWiki that is still open... I'd like to have translation admin rights to help the community and mark pages as translatable. I think that you'll think about my request, thank you.

Please prepare a page for translation according to Meta:Internationalization guidelines --Ameisenigel (talk) 21:03, 24 September 2025 (UTC)reply
Thanks, I'll do tomorrow Giorgx12 (talk) 16:59, 25 September 2025 (UTC)reply
@Ameisenigel Can I prepare a template too? Giorgx12 (talk) 16:59, 25 September 2025 (UTC)reply
Sure. --Ameisenigel (talk) 20:06, 25 September 2025 (UTC)reply
@Ameisenigel Hi I've prepared the page but I can't login because of 2FA now, tomorrow I'll publish. [TA address —DerHexer (Talk) 07:11, 2 October 2025 (UTC)] 16:22, 26 September 2025 (UTC)reply
@Ameisenigel I prepared this page... See if it's right or I have to fix it. Giorgx12 (talk) 07:44, 27 September 2025 (UTC)reply
And also my user page. Giorgx12 (talk) 07:52, 27 September 2025 (UTC)reply
Please note that we usually do not mark user pages for translation. --Ameisenigel (talk) 07:52, 28 September 2025 (UTC)reply
Thanks. Please insert an empty line after each header to automatically split the header and the text of the section into seperate translation units. Please also add "Special:MyLanguage" to links to other pages and split the items of lists into seperate translation units. --Ameisenigel (talk) 07:51, 28 September 2025 (UTC)reply
@Ameisenigel How can I make a LL to another project (something like w:Mylanguage:WP:babel? Giorgx12 (talk) 09:16, 28 September 2025 (UTC)reply
Are you looking for something like Template:Localized Wikipedia page? --Ameisenigel (talk) 09:39, 28 September 2025 (UTC)reply
@Ameisenigel Is there a way to link automatically the user language? Giorgx12 (talk) 10:02, 28 September 2025 (UTC)reply
At least I am not aware of it. --Ameisenigel (talk) 13:06, 28 September 2025 (UTC)reply
@Ameisenigel I've done Giorgx12 (talk) 16:34, 28 September 2025 (UTC)reply
I think I can Support Support now. Just two notes: tvars do not need to be unique for the whole page, just for the translation unit; the text "Workflows" should be translatable as well. --Ameisenigel (talk) 18:35, 28 September 2025 (UTC)reply
@Ameisenigel Thank you very much for your support!!! Giorgx12 (talk) 19:23, 28 September 2025 (UTC)reply
Please fix the placement of the <tvar> tags at the bottom of the page. --Min☠︎rax«¦talk¦» 09:47, 29 September 2025 (UTC)reply
  • Support SupportTranslation look fine, with only needing some correction. Changed to Weak oppose for now, block on itwiki is concerning. Plutus 💬 🎃 Fortune favors the curious 09:23, 29 September 2025 (UTC)reply
  • I'm sorry but I have to Oppose Oppose the request. While I appreciate your help, and overlooking the mistakes in translations (since we all make them), I've noticed your requests for flags on multiple projects though. I don't like this "hat collection" at all. I also noticed other issues (here the details, nothing too unsolvable, just a little more experience is needed):
    1. You asked how to become autopatrolled on itwiki after a few edits;
    2. You requested the AP flag on itwikivoyage with 0 edits on that project (and with a "self-candidacies are not allowed" notice on top of the page);
    3. You also requested the TA flag on mediawiki, as you already pointed out, and asked how to become TA on commons;
    4. You attempted to subscribe to the itwiki sysops private mailing list;
    5. You added yourself to the itwiki tutor list, and you were told you didn't have enough experience for that, and you also provided some contradictory advices to new users just 2 weeks ago;
    6. You received an indefinite block on 6 namespaces for your repeated behavior against the guidelines on itwiki (often due to inexperience) and after several warnings of various kinds on your user talk page (and another partial block);
For all these reasons, I don't feel confident seeing you with a flag like the TA on metawiki. Don't take this as a failure, I repeat, I always appreciate help and good will, but I believe that everything has its time, and imho you need more experience in projects before thinking about advanced rights. I hope to see you always active on many projects and to grow with a great Wikimedian spirit! Best regards --Superpes15 (talk) 12:16, 29 September 2025 (UTC)reply

Comment Comment I suppose that @Giorgx12: is quite young, therefore I prefer to avoid opposition comments piling up. I'd really just suggest him to keep editing but to avoid "advanced" user requests for at least another couple of years. Thanks, --M/ (talk) 13:50, 30 September 2025 (UTC)reply

Not done, closed for Meta:Snowball (last comma).
