Hi all,
I don't know if this is a place to request for localizing one of functions. If not, please let me know where I can request it.
When the automatic cite function is used to add a reference, it does not automatically include its original date of publication.
It will also include the language tag automatically when the source is written in the language of the local Wikipedia. E.g. a Japanese reference in jawiki does not need to display that it is written in Japanese.
Apparently, those would irritate old-time users, and newbies have been criticized for them. I thought that the Visual Editors is for encouraging newbies to participate in editing Wikipedia articles and it would defeat the purpose when they are criticized for utilizing one of its functions.
Are there ways to add the original date of publication when the automatic cite function is used? Also, are there ways to exclude a language tag when the source is written in the language of the local Wikipedia?
Thanks,
