Manual:$wgPageLanguageUseDB can be used to change page source language.

Hi, we have an English Wiki but a German article to be translated. By default the extension marks the article as English and consequently we get

Translations to this language in this group have been disabled. Reason:

English is the source language of this page.

Any ideas how to mark this article as German and how to allow translations in the source language?

Thanks

Tristan

Hopefully you have recent enough MediaWiki to enable Manual:$wgPageLanguageUseDB in LocalSettings.php. Then you can use this feature to change the page content language to German. But you should do that before marking the page for translation.
