      • and as always the english wikipedia blurb and not any more RELEVANT language

        "Skepsisen var til stede også i forkant av den internasjonale finalen i Dublin 13. mai 1995, blant annet mente svenskene at «Nocturne» ikke var noen sang. Den fikk heller ingen poeng fra den svenske juryen, men vant likevel konkurransen med 148 poeng."
      • "scepticalism was there during the beginnning of the international contest also, among other things, the swedes meant it was "no song". it got no votes from them either. but still won with 148 points"
      • HAH
      • Oskar_ has quit
      • SothoTalKer: it's a general annoyance of mine that the english wikipedia trumps every other language wikipedia, even if : 1. the other wikipedias have better, long article. 2. the actual artist/song/whathave you is of a diff nationality and especially 3. if the en wiki is literally two sentences and the f.ex nowiki or dewiki are several paragraps or even starred article
      • SothoTalKer
        ah you mean for wikidata links?
      • KassOtsimine
        also if there *is* no english wikipedia artice the run down is ridiculous, for eample it will pick german before jugoslavian (i belive) which might be alphabetical (de before j) but it will. graviously puck svedish wiki before norwegina, which makes NO sense if it's a norwegian artist!
      • Oskar_ joined the channel
      • SothoTalKer: yes, but alos, if i f.ex link a norwwgian wikipage, it will *still* show the nglish wikiblurb
      • and that's just.. insulting
      • my hope is that chhaviredesign will fix these things
      • imho the blurb's language should be set by editors, but then can be owerwritten by useroptions. ie "show me the set wikipedia blurb / always show the language ____"
      • what do you think of that idea?
      • Oskar_ has quit
      • oh and also, to remain peace with the engloish spaikers. make sure that "only set to a diff language than eng if the eng wikipedia is inferior to the other language AND that the other language makes sense (ie not indonesian article for eg mozart)
      • is a guideline

      • Oskar has quit
      • KassOtsimine
        it situiations where it is obvious
      • SothoTalKer
        dunno, people should set their 3 preferred wiki languages in the options and we should list all available entries on the respective page somewhere.
      • KassOtsimine
        oohh nice! that's not a bad idea

      • SothoTalKer
        KassOtsimine: that requires a little bit deeper integration with wikidata itself, but i think it is doable :)
      • we could also add to cover more data from wikidata directly (:
      • KassOtsimine
        yes. i'd deff like to have things like other databases linked to wikidata auto-populated once a wikidata item was linked to an mb one
      • and then also changed ifthey were changed at wikidata (but utilising an edit in our system and not done automatically)
      • always good with a aper trail
      • paper*
      • hello any people out there ,especially gci students and such, any one can read Bangla?
      • i want to find out if https://bn.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A6%AC%E0%A7%8... is about the Bass violin explisitly or about things like bass(contrabass/double bass)
      • hmm ahh. the image onfused me, it seemd much too large to g\be the cello predecessor. but the person in the image is a child :D
      • also perspective
      • hmm! til: cello (violoncello)s are way bigger than i though
      • hibiscuskazeneko has quit
      • echarlie
        KassOtsimine: about a 1 meter long body. you've never seen cellos before?
      • KassOtsimine
        actually, no
      • :(
      • it's very good to learn these things
      • if i'm to be a proer instrument inserter imust endeavour to know as much as possible
      • echarlie
        I grew up playing viola in school, so I just can't fathom *not* knowing what western strings are like.
      • KassOtsimine
        heh
      • I kinda went to a "special" school and my education has been.. messe dup. i'd have loved to leanr more aobut instruments
      • echarlie
        on the other hand, eastern strings and traditional "quarter-tone" still confuse me a lot. Perspective
      • KassOtsimine
        also, not english. it took much to long until i learned "viola" = "bratsj"
      • echarlie
        that's very similar to the german word for viola, "brastche" I believe
      • KassOtsimine
        indeed
      • SothoTalKer
        Bratsche*
      • echarlie
        SothoTalKer: thanks.

        why does 'three-second rule' edits not automatically apply to recordings?
      • is it intentional?
      • https://musicbrainz.org/release/7040d317-4f96-4... i had the wrong title here but fixed it quickly so it was automatically applied to everything, except the recording

      • Usually in the States it involves alcohol
      • Leftmost
        It's not commonly used that way in the US, though I find that most people don't bat an eye at it. (I've picked up the habit.)
