In Arabic Wikipedia, in type="number" elements (see Main Page history for instance) and the 'N more languages' line of the Compact Language Links feature are displayed Eastern numerals (٠ ١ ٢) instead of conventional Western numerals (0 1 2).
Thanks for taking the time to report this! Confirming: On https://ar.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=الصفحة_الرئيسية&action=history this can be seen in the (من سنة (وأقدم field. > and the 'N more languages' line of the Compact Language Links Might be a separate issue; not sure. Also not sure which codebase this falls into; bug 62725 feels related.
My quick guess that it would in core, rather than in ULS. It looks like the JavaScript implementation of number conversion ( mw.language.convertNumber() ) indeed doesn't check for $wgTranslateNumerals, so this affects not only ULS. Niklas, Santhosh - you are more familiar with this JS code, am I correct or am I missing something?
