::{{ping|Maro21}} "I don't see any reason to force someone or suggest moving" - main reason is that we are incapable of even reviewing images for copyright violations, osm-related images on Commons will be more widely reusable (for example on Wikipedia), we have major trouble with setting up upload interface and so on [[User:Mateusz Konieczny|Mateusz Konieczny]] ([[User talk:Mateusz Konieczny|talk]]) 12:46, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

== Per language feeds of wiki edits? ==
 
Hi, I am very new to OSM community and looked for RSS feeds of the activities written in my language on this wiki. It seems some languages have their namespace (ex <code>ES</code>) but my language(<code>KO</code>) is treated as a plain suffix of the title of the page. So technically it is possible to subscribe to the Spanish feed from <code>https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/api.php?action=feedrecentchanges&namespace=204</code>, but not for Korean. I see adding a new namespace is not the good solution based on some articles. But because [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:Feedrecentchanges|the API]] supports tag filtering, I would subscribe a tag if there is a certain tag. It will be good if someone creates new AbuseFilters and manage them to automatically add the tags to edits when the articles start with '<LANGUAGE_CODE>:'.

:{{ping|Megumi2103}} A few languages have their own namespaces for historical reasons, but language namespaces aren't being created anymore; instead, pages are being created in the main namespace with prefixes that look like namespaces. It is possible to create tags and assign them using abuse filters, similar to the one we created one to track [[Special:AbuseFilter/10|edits to data item descriptions]], but it gets throttled too easily to be useful. We'd also have to create one per language, which could be a performance issue. For now, one alternative is to search for pages containing the language code and sort by freshness, like [{{fullurle:Special:Search|search=intitle:ko&ns0=1&sort=last_edit_desc}} this search for Korean]. However, I don't think MediaWiki offers an RSS feed of Special:Search. Translatewiki.net uses the [[mw:Extension:CleanChanges|CleanChanges]] extension to provide an option to filter Special:RecentChanges by language code; the operations team is responsible for deciding which extensions to install.

Any idea what causes https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Pages_unavailable_in_highway&action=edit&redlink=1 to be filled and how to stop this?

::{{ping|Mateusz Konieczny}} These pages date to the days when some users thought all wiki pages are supposed to be namespaced using colons, just like tags in the database. This is how we got pages like [[Canada:British Columbia:Cowichan Valley Regional District]] and [[Canada:Ontario:Burlington/Public Transport/Analysis/Burlington Transit-Routes]]. But MediaWiki uses a slash for delimiting the parts of a subpage's name, so I've been renaming these pages as I come across them. Plus, categories mean that we usually don't even need to use subpages like in a file system. &ndash;&nbsp;[[User:Minh Nguyen|Minh <span style="font-variant: small-caps;">Nguyễn</span>]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User talk:Minh Nguyen|<span style="display: inline-block;">&#x1f4ac;</span>]]</sup> 22:16, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
:::I am thinking about moving [[Highway:International equivalence]] to [[Highway - International equivalence]] or [[Highway/International equivalence]]. Is anyone opposed to such change?

::::{{ping|Mateusz Konieczny}} I'd suggest either "[[Highways/International equivalence]]" (as a subpage of "[[Highways]]") or "[[International highway classification equivalence]]" (which reads more naturally). While we're at it, {{tl|Map Features:highway}} is another example of that mistaken colon namespacing, though it isn't breaking anything at the moment. &ndash;&nbsp;[[User:Minh Nguyen|Minh <span style="font-variant: small-caps;">Nguyễn</span>]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User talk:Minh Nguyen|<span style="display: inline-block;">&#x1f4ac;</span>]]</sup> 01:46, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

:::: Yes, I am against it. No spaces are used between hyphens. And "International equivalence" is not a subpage of "Highway" (because there is no such page). [[User:Maro21|maro21]] 20:12, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

: On this Wiki, we have such a system that what comes before the colon is a language code that creates an additional namespace. So in the names of these templates there should be no colon. [[User:Maro21|maro21]] 20:12, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
::{{ping|Maro21}} do you want mark this page as not resolved or would it be fine to archive it as resolved? (it seems that you are not protesting the move but I want to confirm) [[User:Mateusz Konieczny|Mateusz Konieczny]] ([[User talk:Mateusz Konieczny|talk]]) 12:49, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
