Article_feedback/status
Moin Fabrice, thank you for the updat. May I suggest that you address the oversight and legal issues raised in relation to the planned deployment on de.wp before you roll it out on the project. Your contribution from February 21 does not elaborate the point sufficienty - as both the reply to it on the feedback page (where I also summed up a point I came across off wiki) and the state of the Germans Adminnotice discussion since then indicate. Thanks & best regards, --Jan eissfeldt (talk) 16:49, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

International projects
Hello, I read you plan to "Deploy Echo on international projects this summer".[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3ANotifications&diff=559464858&oldid=559349702] I often read you saying "international projects" or even "foreign projects", but I don't find this term in our glossaries; it would be helpful if you defined it, or chose another term, because I have absolutely 0.0 idea what it means. Cheers, Nemo 09:27, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Nemo! I really appreciate your bringing this up. Sorry if I'm using the wrong terms. What I meant to say was 'Wikipedia projects that use languages other than English' -- such as the French or German Wikipedias. What would be a good term to use to describe these projects, in your opinion? Thanks again for helping me with this, I'm still getting up to speed on the many Wikipedia practices and policies ... : ) Fabrice Florin (WMF) (talk) 17:22, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi, usually we talk either of "language editions" of a project (e.g. en.wiki) or of "multilingual projects" (e.g. Commons, Meta; sometimes also "global"); "international" is not used because most of our projects are, ideally all of them.
 * "Wikipedia projects that use languages other than English" are not a thing, so they'd just be "non-English Wikipedias" or "[all/whole] Wikipedia". Other examples: "All non-Wikipedia sites", "non-English projects" (everything but en.wiki, en.quote, en.wikt, en.*) etc. --Nemo 18:35, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Nemo! I will use the terms you propose above going forward: it was really helpful to get your clarifications on the differences between "language editions", "multilingual projects" or "non-English Wikipedias", for example. Much appreciated! Fabrice Florin (WMF) (talk) 19:11, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

AFT5 for en:Wikivoyage
Hi Fabrice, To what extent can AFT5 be customized for a project such as Wikivoyage? Pbsouthwood (talk) 10:14, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi, Pbsouthwood, it should be fairly easy to set up Article Feedback v5 in its current form on Wikivoyage -- and we'd be happy to install this experimental tool for you, if you like. Before we do, check out this release plan for more info on what's involved. As for custom features, we can't develop them for you because we've moved on to other projects. But if you have a good developer that's familiar with MediaWiki, it should be possible to customize the tool. If you can give us an idea of what you have in mind, developer Matthias Mullie and I can give you a sense of what it would take. Cheers! Fabrice Florin (WMF) (talk) 22:56, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Does this mean it is also deployed on German Wikipedia on the 22nd or not. Greetings --Saehrimnir (talk) 10:42, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
