Hi everyone! As an editor of the Serbo-Croatian Wikipedia, I just wanted to point out that it is displayed in two scripts—Latin and Cyrillic—using the LanguageConverter. Therefore, I believe the label "Srpskohrvatski" should be changed to "Srpskohrvatski/Српскохрватски," with both words capitalized and no spaces before and after the slash. Thank you for considering my request! – Aca (talk) 11:23, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We do seem to have a wiki with two scripts (:nan:) currently in this list. That feels a bit like it shouldn't be like that however as it gives a bit of undue attention to the one specific wiki.... Izno (talk) 21:55, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Izno: If so, I would support standardizing the label in the primary/prevalent script of the Wikimedia project. That would mean the Uzbek Wikipedia label should be changed to "Oʻzbekcha" to not give undue attention. – Aca (talk) 08:45, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bug in the link for the Egyptian Arabic wikipedia

I believe that this is the template that is what causes the bug, but for some reason the link to Egyptian Arabic Wikipedia has a really small area that you can actually click on, just a few pixels tall as far as I can tell. In case it helps, I am using a chromebook and I am on desktop view.
PS: I also mentioned this on the main page talk page
PSS: I have brought this issue up before but nothing was done. Gaismagorm (talk) 22:24, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I cannot reproduce this issue just eyeballing things with my own cursor on Firefox recent. What browser are you using and what version? Izno (talk) 21:57, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

im using Google chrome, idk what version probably the most recent version. Gaismagorm (talk) 21:58, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
