The Kiowa language, kio, is not supported. Would this be possible to fix? AevumNova (talk) 16:05, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Works for me. If you mean that the sentence "This user has a native understanding of Kiowa" should be translated, then that's phab:T173700* Pppery *it has begun... 16:16, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don’t like how the original sample languages don’t have English as the native language, and that there are some lesser known languages (Aragonese especially). As I talked about, I think this would be better:
Starting a thread here is a good move. Using it as an excuse to make this revert just one minute later is simply not on. Please see WP:BRD: you were bold, the edit was reverted, now discuss. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 19:45, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Considering that this is the English Wikipedia, overall, and the native language for the original demo is Swedish, not English, I think it would make more sense for the native language for the demo to be English.
Guaraní and Aragonese both are not as used much as other languages, but Guaraní is the more common of the two and is the native language of a country (Paraguay in this case), so Guaraní fits well.
Considering Spanish, which is shown as basic Spanish in the original demo, I think it would make more sense to use a higher level of Spanish since Spanish is the second widely spoken language in the world.
The other choices in the change from the original demo to the new demo (French instead of Norwegian, Turkish instead of Hebrew, Italian instead of Lithuanian, and Polish instead of Aragonese) were made for no particular reason; I just thought they’d be better fits. 2601:C6:D281:6710:F531:658F:3C4F:6AC6 (talk) 21:08, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We shouldn't include a level-zero example because specifying what languages you don't speak is silly. The rest of this is of no consequence at all and should be added to WP:LAME* Pppery *it has begun... 21:35, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Correct! It would be better to not have a zero-language box in a babel. For example:
It makes sense to give an example with en-0, as explained in the page: Similarly, one may usefully edit a project without speaking the language, such as adding links or images to Japanese Wikipedia without speaking Japanese. For instance es-5, ca-N, fr-4, tr-3, it-2, gn-1, en-0. (see also: Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Template:User en-0) a455bcd9 (Antoine) (talk) 07:54, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
