Hallo!

Please take a look at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:SiteMatrix#ps
and compare how the translation of "Pashto" is rendered there compared with
http://nike.users.idler.fi/betawiki/project:LanguagePs.php_and_MessagesPs.php
where <span style="font-size: 16px;" > is used.

Some time ago I made some tests trying to find suitable font-family, font-size
for the different languages. I used conditional templates to write these texts
and longer texts in differnt variants. As far as I know this work is lost.

Before posting a feature request at MediaZIlla to include such informations
either in Names.php (eventualy inLanguageXx.php or MessagesXx.php) I would like
to know your opinion and what additional information is rerquired.

I am not familiar with HTML, X..., CSS . What information would be required in
such tags?

best regards [[user:gangleri]]
