Salve, Bonicolli!

Gratus aut grata in Vicipaediam Latinam acciperis! Ob contributa tua gratias agimus speramusque te delectari posse et manere velle.

Cum Vicipaedia nostra parva humilisque sit, paucae et exiguae sunt paginae auxilii, a quibus hortamur te ut incipias:

Si plura de moribus et institutis Vicipaedianis scire vis, tibi suademus, roges in nostra Taberna, vel roges unum ex magistratibus directe.

In paginis encyclopaedicis mos noster non est nomen dare, sed in paginis disputationis memento editis tuis nomen subscribere, litteris impressis --~~~~, quibus insertis nomen tuum et dies apparebit. Quamquam vero in paginis ipsis nisi lingua Latina uti non licet, in paginis disputationum qualibet lingua scribi solet. Quodsi quid interrogare velis, vel Taberna vel pagina disputationis mea tibi patebit. Ave! Spero te "Vicipaedianum" aut "Vicipaedianam" fieri velle! --Xaverius 21:30, 10 Novembris 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted your changes to the Babel formula because they made a mess of existing userpages. Of course, your work isn't lost -- if you want to perfect it --: it's saved in the history. Perhaps you'd like to explain what you want to do? The words "This user cannot read or write any languages. Assistance is required." sound like a joke in poor taste, unless you also have a suggestion for how we are to help those people.

[Added later:] You need to know also that existing formula {{Babel-X}} depends on formula {{Babel}}. So, if you change anything on Babel, you must afterwards check userpages linked to Babel and to Babel-X to make sure your changes haven't had a bad effect.

I am endeavoring to add, from the instructions included on the English Babel set, the complete set of Babel forms, as they did not exist in the Latin version, and did not (seem to?) conform to the international standard. I cannot see a way of adding them in one complete go, alas... perhaps I should have started with a bottom-up instead of a top-down approach? The "user cannot read... etc", is the literal copy of the english Babel form, as described in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Babel . I am just following the instructions found there under "How to get Babel boxes to work on other Wikipedias"... Bonicolli 11:37, 11 Novembris 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the explanation. That sounds like a good idea (though personally I don't think the English message is very amusing!) The real problem is that we already have a Babel box which works in a certain way ... Maybe you could give yours a different name (e.g. Formula:Babel-Y) or maybe you should ask UV for help. He understands formulae much better than I do. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 14:44, 11 Novembris 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your kind answer. Perhaps we could just make this just a simple redirect? It would be ideal if the Babel boxes behaved the same in every Wikipedia. Bonicolli 14:51, 11 Novembris 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I guess whoever wrote that instruction on the English Wikipedia did not consider the case that other Wikipedias may have a Babel template already!
I agree with the principle of unifying them. But it seems you still have to copy all the boxes over from one Wikipedia to another, so the advantage is not very striking ... The main thing, after any changes, is just to make sure (by using the link "Nexus ad paginam") that existing userpages still work properly. Andrew Dalby (disputatio) 15:17, 11 Novembris 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The template en:Template:Babel corresponds to our Formula:Babel-X. It would be a good idea to move our Formula:Babel-X to Formula:Babel for consistency with the other wikipedias. However, we need to make sure beforehand that no user page still links to our current Formula:Babel, or we will break the appearance of those user pages. The current list at Special:Whatlinkshere/Formula:Babel is not up to date, so we will need to wait until tomorrow or so when the list will have been refreshed, then fix the remaining items on that list. Only then, we can safely move Formula:Babel-X to Formula:Babel. Greetings, --UV 17:05, 11 Novembris 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All done! --UV 00:27, 12 Novembris 2007 (UTC)[reply]
