welcomebot notices sometimes not linkified
welcomebot notices sometimes not linkified
| Issue ID: | 3131 |
| Issue Category: | bug |
| Component: | translation |
| Priority: | normal |
| Status: | fixed |
| Assigned: | march |
| Version: | 0.9 |
| Milestone: | 1.0 |
| Keywords: | chinese, Language, linkify, reply, welcomebot |
When welcomebot greets someone in Chinese, the username is not linkified (see first screenshot) and the users doesn't receive the notice either (see second screenshot).
It's possible this happens in other (non-latin?) languages, but the recent ones in Chinese stuck out.

I knew I'd reported this before... actually it was about 7 months ago, here:

About time to fix this!

as stated 7 months ago in @marjoleink's linked thread, this seems to be caused by something in the translated phrase.
there was a sign looking like a comma but was no comma and the following @ was without a space before. see http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=StatusNet:1d2bbd445c37ab22a6eff895b9dadcee723072cb-Welcome_to_1$s,_@_2$s!/zh-hans&oldid=2917541
@siebrand please check this.

All current (non-fuzzied) translations have "@%2$s" with a leading space or are at the beginning of the sentence[1]. If this can still be reproduced, it must be something in the i18n (not L10n) or "linkification" of non-Latin script usernames. Unfortunately, I am not able to be of help in that area. See code[2]
