Big issue with the Nanoréseau article

Dernier commentaire : il y a 3 mois3 commentaires2 participants à la discussion

This is not an issue that affects the French Wikipedia, but at least the English one but I think I should notify here in order to start things to get moving.

The issue is that while the French Wikipedia shows the correct article, the translations don't show them. Maybe it should be better to separate the term "nano network" from "nanoréseau" in the other wikis in order to display the correct information.

Traduction rapide / quick translation

Ce n'est pas un problème qui touche Wikipédia en français, mais au moins Wikipédia en anglais, mais je pense que je devrais le signaler ici afin de faire bouger les choses.

Le problème est que, alors que Wikipédia en français affiche l'article correct, les traductions ne l'affichent pas. Il serait peut-être préférable de séparer le terme « nano network » de « nanoréseau » dans les autres wikis afin d'afficher les informations correctes. -- Hippo ^{[discutez sans frapper]} 24 août 2025 à 12:28 (CEST)Répondre

Sorry, I think I already solved it by changing a couple of things in Wikidata.

Merci!

Modèle:Infobox Personnage (fiction)

Dernier commentaire : il y a 1 mois1 commentaire1 participant à la discussion

Could someone please update this infobox to transclude image of cosplay (P13632)? On Wikidata we have been moving photographs of cosplay from image (P18) to image of cosplay (P13632). These photographs are no longer being included in French Wikipedia infoboxes due to the lack of transclusion in the infobox--Trade (discuter) 30 octobre 2025 à 16:00 (CET)Répondre

Inquiry about attaching WikiProjects to articles about aviation disasters

Dernier commentaire : il y a 1 mois2 commentaires2 participants à la discussion

Hello FRwiki!

On the English Wikipedia, in regards to aircraft accidents and incidents, I typically attach the following WikiProjects:

WikiProject Aviation and its associated task force on aircraft accidents
The country which the airline belongs to. For example, an Air France accident anywhere in the world would be attached to WikiProject France. In the case of a multinational airline like Scandinavian Airlines, this means attaching all countries which have a stake in the airline. For example, the en:Linate disaster has the WikiProjects of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, since SAS is jointly owned by entities from all three countries.
The country which the aviation disaster occurred in. For example, the Linate disaster is tagged for WikiProject Italy as it took place in Italy.
en:Air France Flight 447 occurred in international waters, but due to the involvement of Brazilian authorities in the search efforts, it is also tagged WikiProject Brazil

On FRwiki I propose that Accidents de deux DC-4 d'Air France en juin 1950 should be attached to WikiProject France and WikiProject Moyen-Orient (Middle East) because:

A. The airline was Air France
B. The incidents took place in Bahrain, which is in the Middle East

In my view I think other articles on aviation accidents on FRwiki should be tagged in a similar way.

There may be a difference in practices between English and French Wikipedias, and so I would like to have a discussion about this, if this is alright.

Thank you! WhisperToMe (discuter) 1 novembre 2025 à 05:09 (CET)Répondre

Hello WhisperToMe, This seems fine to me. You’ll find the list of air accidents in Catégorie:Liste d'accidents ou incidents aériens and subcategories. WP:BOLD! Best regards, —

Asking for translations

Dernier commentaire : il y a 1 mois3 commentaires2 participants à la discussion

I wrote several articles on the English Wikipedia that *may* meet notability standards here, and I would like to have them translated. My French is decent, but not at a high enough level where I'd feel OK doing the work myself. Where can I go to request translations?

The articles are on English Wikipedia:
