Universal Language Selector/FAQ/ru

Что такое универсальный переключатель языков?
Универсальный переключатель языков — это расширение MediaWiki, которое позволяет пользователям сменить настройки языка и конфигурацию в соответствии с их предпочтениями. Оно использует библиотеки jQuery libraries из Проекта Milkshake.

Какие языковые настройки я могу менять, используя переключатель?
Универсальный переключатель языков предлагает следующие особенности на сайтах Викимедиа:


 * 1) Интерфейс выбора языка для пользователей, вошедших в систему
 * 2) Веб-шрифты
 * 3) Методы ввода

Как универсальный переключатель языков определяет, какие языки я могу понимать?
ULS queries a service that determines your originating country based on your IP address. This is inaccurate in some cases. Based on the country code, most often spoken languages are suggested for you.

Где найти универсальный переключатель языков
The current planning is to make Universal Language Selector available on all Wikimedia wikis as soon as possible. Check the deployment planning for details.

Как мне использовать униварсальный переключатель языков?
On projects with language versions (Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikiversity, Wiktionary, Wikiquote, Wikivoyage, Wikinews, Wikisource) Universal Language Selector is visible as a cog icon in the menu area for interlanguage links. In Wikimedia projects without language versions (for example Wikimedia Commons, Meta-Wiki, Wikispecies and this wiki mediawiki.org), ULS is available as an icon in the personal toolbar at the top of the page.

Click the icon, make settings and confirm them to have the settings remain active.

A small keyboard icon will appear for all fields that allow text input. Select it to make changes to the settings.

See "Location for the Selector" to learn more about the choice of the location.

Как мне изменить язык отображения?
The language used to display the MediaWiki interface messages can be changed using the Language Settings panel of ULS.

Эта особенность доступна только для участников, вошедших в систему.

After logging-in, you can open the Language Settings panel [on the sidebar or at the top] and navigate to the Language tab of the Display settings.

For quick selection, ULS will display a list of possible languages based on your location. You can click to select the language of your choice.

If the language you are looking for is not on the panel, you can click on the '...' button to open the longer list of languages to search and select.

Должен ли я представиться системе, чтобы изменить мой язык отображения?
Да. Отображаемый язык может быть сменён только пользователями, вошедшими в систему.

If I change the Display language, will this change the language of the content on the page I am viewing
No. ULS does not change the language of the content on the page. It can be used to only change the interface language of MediaWiki.

I see boxes in the text when I select my language
We call these boxes 'tofu' and this occurs when there are no fonts for the language that has been selected.

You can install a local font on your system to correct this situation.

But to prevent a similar in future we would like to ensure that our web-fonts library has fonts for your language.

Пожалуйста, дайте нам знать, предпочтительно через http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org

Могу ли я изменить шрифт для языка?
Шрифт для языка может быть изменён пользователем на вкладке «Шрифт» в настройках отображения.

Анонимные пользователи могут изменять шрифт только для того языка, который сейчас используют.

Вошедшие в систему пользователи могут изменять шрифты для всех языков.

There does not seem to be a font for my language. How can I request for a new font to be included in ULS
You can file a bug on Bugzilla requesting for a font to be added for your language.

It is expected that you will also provide suggestions about the fonts and point us to where we can find them.

It is advisable to also seek consensus from other members of your language community about inclusion of the new font.

What information will be necessary for a new font to be included into ULS

 * 1) The name of the font
 * 2) URL to the source of the font
 * 3) License for the font that allows it to be freely used, distributed and modified.

This information can be mentioned in Bugzilla when requesting for a font to be included.

I would like to write in a different language. How can I change the settings to do so

 * 1) Sidebar: You can go to the 'Input Settings' section in the Language Settings panel and select a language displayed on the buttons or from the 'Language Selection' popup.
 * 2) Keyboard menu: The languages are displayed as a list and a selection can be made from here.

I have chosen a language, but I still cannot write in that language. What could be wrong
When you select a language, you will be presented with a list of input methods for that language. If no input methods exist within ULS for that language the native keyboard on your local computer will be used for input. If input methods are not available through either of the two options, then you will not be able to write in the selected language.

I would like to change the keyboard for the language that I have chosen. How can I do that
The input method/keyboard options within ULS for a language are displayed as a list in both the Language Settings panel as well as in the keyboard menu from a text input box.

A default keyboard is selected for each language. To use a different keyboard, you can make a selection from this list.

I have a keyboard on my computer and I do not want to use the keyboard in ULS. Can I disable the ULS keyboard completely
The ULS input methods can be disabled in 2 ways:


 * 1) From the sidebar: by clicking on the 'Disable input methods' button within the input settings option in the Language Settings panel
 * 2) From the Keyboard menu: by clicking on 'Disable input methods' from the keyboard menu that is displayed when the user clicks on the keyboard icon from an input field (like the search field)

Can I disable the ULS keyboard for only 1 language, without disabling the ULS keyboard completely
Yes. To do so, please select 'Use Native Keyboard' from the drop-down menu that is displayed in the list of keyboards available for that language.

Can I set all the Language Settings from within my user preference page
Yes. To configure the language settings, navigate to you user preference page and click on the 'More language settings' option in the 'Internationalisation' section under the 'User Profile' tab.

Why can anonymous users not use Universal Language Selector to change their interface language
This option is disabled on Wikimedia wikis, because the Wikimedia cache infrastructure currently does not support this. We are looking into making this possible in the future. There is no timeline for this.

Как мне отключить универсальный переключатель языков?
Только часть функций может быть отключена.

Input methods can be completely disabled by clicking the keyboard icon and clicking "Disable input tools".

Web fonts can only be disabled per language in the settings.

Can I translate the interface of Universal Language Selector in my language
Yes! You can do this at translatewiki.net. Complete translation of the following two message groups once you are a registered translator:
 * Расширение MediaWiki
 * Плагин jQuery

Где я могу сообщить о проблеме?
Please report problems and suggestions in Bugzilla. Please ensure to report as much detail as you can.
