Please check what should be translate at the section Configuration changes for system administrators.

It is very likely some tags are missing.

I'm trying to add the description of an attribute under the section BarData on the page Extension:EasyTimeline/syntax. However, when I try to publish my edit, it says that I've added an external link, and that that is not allowed. I did not add an external link. The only link I added was to another section of the article itself (PlotData). But even when I remove that link and try to publish, it still gives that same error. Why is this occuring?

The filter was matching more than it should... I've fixed it. Try again

It works now. Thanks!

Hi,

There are only 4 days left to vote in the WMF Board election. This is an incredibly important election, quoting bawolff's wikitech-l post: "The Wikimedia Foundation is the largest contributor to MediaWiki core, and the trustees control the direction of the Wikimedia Foundation. Hence your vote (indirectly) determines the direction of MediaWiki software!"

I encourage you to:

• Review the list of candidates
• Watch/read answers to community questions
• Vote!

Thanks for the note!
