Metawiki or Mewiki / Tame ?
I suggest use Metawiki, Metawik, Mewiki or Tame (meTAwikiMEdia) for the project.--BoldLuis (talk) 10:07, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

- Use an unique (proper) name for the project and avoid the employ of hyphens. --BoldLuis (talk) 10:12, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

- To have an unique (proper) name, as Wikipedia. You do not need to use "Wikimedia Wikipedia". Only say "Wikipedia". Insted of this, there is a lot "metawikis". So you need to say two words to talk about the project "Wikimedia Meta-Wiki" and use a hypen ( - ). It is shorter "Tame" or "Mewiki". We can say: "you / we are in Tame" or "you are in Mewiki". --BoldLuis (talk) 10:18, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- How is "Meta-Wiki" not unique? 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 10:20, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- It is not. There are other wikis that have metawikis / meta-wikis to talk about the project. Because of this, you use "Mediawiki Meta-Wiki" instead, including an annoying hyphen (originally, the name was Meta-Wikipedia). --BoldLuis (talk) 10:22, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- Why is a hyphen annoying? Could you also point to specific wikis which are known under the name "Meta-Wiki"? 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 10:33, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Missing Special:MyLanguage
The row <li>[[Wikimedia projects|<translate><!--T:2--> Projects</translate>]]<br> should use Special:MyLanguage, ergo <li>[[Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia projects|<translate><!--T:2--> Projects</translate>]]<br> --Sabelöga (talk) 10:58, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
Done. ~~~~

Amharic Wiktionary: Admins, Templates, Counter
- I think there's a problem with the counter on the amharic version of wiktionary because I've created about 20 pages (of contents) since November 2 and I've never seen it change the number of total pages. It's a little bit frustrating.
- Is there any admin there? I ask this because I don't know where to submit some requests (E.G for bot account or to import xml from other wikt)
- Last but not least: is it possible to import or create (if yes how) Translation templates like {trans-top}? Abreham97 (talk) 08:57, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Abreham97 Probably not the right venue, but amwikt does not have sysops, and you can add translations on Translatewiki. ~~~~
User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 18:50, 11 November 2021 (UTC) - @1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) Thanks for the tips. I really appreciated. Abreham97 (talk) 21:29, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
