Welcome to the Localization Project's Noticeboard.

This space is for anyone who wants to request, suggest improvements, or have questions about translations and localizations of specific words and phrases on Wikispecies. Please start a new conversation if this applies to you.
If instead you need to reach a Translation administrator for more general questions about the translation of Wikispecies, please use the standard Translation Administrators' Noticeboard. For general conversation not related to translation or localization, see the Village Pump.


Epitype, Types, Eponym, ichnologue [fr], chiropterologist, and capitalization of scientific disciplines (at least in French)

[edit]

Several new entries could be created:


Please create the French entry for ichnologist: ichnologue.

MediaWiki:Ichnologist - MediaWiki:Ichnologist/fr

The English term "Ichnologist" is capitalized, whereas this is not the case for other scientific disciplines—the capitalization was removed several years ago: [1]. It should probably be removed in MediaWiki:Ichnologist as well.


As per Category talk:Chiropterists, the term chiropterologist is preferred over chiropterist. Should MediaWiki:Chiropterist be kept, and MediaWiki:Chiropterologist created? Or should MediaWiki:Chiropterist be redirected/moved to MediaWiki:Chiropterologist, then updated with the new term?

If MediaWiki:Chiropterist/fr is kept, the word "Chiroptériste" shouldn't be capitalized. If it is redirected/moved to MediaWiki:Chiropterologist/fr, the new term is "chiroptérologue".

Please see Special:PrefixIndex/MediaWiki:Chiropterist for other translations.


Also, please remove the capitalization of scientific disciplines in French, from MediaWiki:Acarologist/fr to MediaWiki:Zoologist/fr, listed at Wikispecies:Localization/fr.

List for convenience:
