Description ranjitsh 2012-05-05 17:47:03 UTC 
Tested as a part of #WTA72 / #weekendtesting;

While trying out the Sandbox page (https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Ranjitsh&action=edit), I notice that there are only a limited few international languages available to the user.

I was trying to play around with page containing many different languages (Indic) and noticed that there was Gujarati but no Hindi. Considering there are over 100K articles in Hindi and about 22K in Gujarati, it was a bit odd to find Hindi not being offered as a language; Also considering Hindi is India's official / national language, I also found it a bit upsetting/insulting!

What language do you mean? MediaWiki supports about 350 languages. Hindi is one of those. You can change it in your preferences. Without additional details, I'd say this bug report is invalid.

Also: What is WTA?
