@Donarius: Formatele sunt recunoscute de script la fel ca acel span. Atenție însă, asta înseamnă doar că textul din interior e ignorat, diacriticele nu sunt convertite de la virgulă la sedila. N-ar fi o idee rea asta, însă sunt și multe formate unde nu știi care e forma corectă și s-ar complica mult codul. Strainu (دسستي) 6 aprilie 2020 03:50 (EEST)Răspunde

You can rename them before this if you wish and the new title can be different from the one the script would rename it to. [10]

Hi, sorry I don't speak Romaninan. Please update your MediaWiki:Common.css page to fix bug in your contribution pages. If you open Special:Contribuții, there's an arrow on the leftmost side that's not displaying properly. You should delete this block

And replace it with this:
