problems editing articles

i have problems editing some articles ... is this a local or a server problem? f. e. changing in FAQ 5.18 cat from [[Category:FAQ|5.1]] to [[Category:FAQ|5.18]] i get a blank page after a long waiting time. --Sebastian Mendel 21:25, 17 August 2006 (CEST)

I get this from time to time, usually a reload or waiting a few minutes clears it up. I'm not sure what the problem could be because other wiki pages continue to load in other browser tabs while the other page timeouts. It only happens once in a while, though, so who knows what it could be? Ibennetch 14:04, 19 August 2006 (CEST)

Maybe some caching in media wiki might be involved, it's running with memcached -- Nijel

Which releases to list?

should we list all minor sub-releases, alphas, rc's ...., and if so, shall we replace them when the full version is released? --windkiel 11:55, 26 August 2008 (CEST)

In "News" on the main page or as individual articles? If you mean the individual articles, then I say alphas and rcs get moved to the stable release when appropriate (with redirects from the old pages). --Ibennetch 04:44, 1 September 2008 (CEST)

I meant in "News" : replace alphas and rcs with stable or leave them on the list and just add the stable version?

Can I use any other languages to write ?

Can I use any other languages such as Chinese?

我是否可以使用中文来写作或讨论？

Well personally I'm split on the idea -- I like the idea of having the wiki available in other languages, but worry about the wiki becoming stale if the person doing the translation wanders away from the project. While on the topic, Documentation.html is in English only right now, too, and I wonder if there's interest in a translation of that page.

My vote: Go for it, and if/when it takes off we can work out the page structure to make it more wikipedia-like. --Ibennetch 03:35, 24 March 2009 (CET)
