Topic on User talk:Elitre (WMF)

Hi Elitre (WMF), I saw your recent post on the Meta:Babel discussion page and I am wondering who to contact in regards to renaming "Patois," (which isn't even the way Patois is spelling in "Jamaican Patois," it is "Patwa") to "Jumiekan Patwa."

"Patois" is far too generic, hence "Haitian Creole," (Kreyòl ayisyen) Scottish Gaelic," (Gàidhlig) etc.

This would really need to be changed. I would do it myself but I do not think I would be able, and quite frankly wouldn't know how to do so.

Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you.

:)

Hi @Savvyjack23, it's good to see your name again. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T101086 has some information related to this. It might be a useful starting point for you.

@Savvyjack23, did that help?

Hi Elitre (WMF), sorry I haven't had a chance to look at it yet; I've been swamped as of late. Thank you for such a quick reply! I will take a deeper look into it later in the day and I will get back to you. Cheers! :)
