Leaving a translation unpublished and coming back to it after a while sometimes causes some sections to have the "100% of the text is unchanged" warning.
It might have to do with the original article being edited.
I am using Firefox, and I was translating "X11 color names" to Arabic.
For the past couple of days I have noticed that the translated sections (en -> bs) are not saved for when I open them later to progress further in the article. It happened a few times before I resorted to copying the newly translated text and saving it on an external desktop file. This, in the end, failed to function as well because the paste command seems to be skewed as well.
Every time I translate wikipedia send me to a looping box. Ffs.
Everything is in the title : the references section can't be modified, but when it's very long the robot will never allow publishing while I have modified every paragraph.
(sorry i was not logged it. The page is Ontological turn, from english to french.)
The translation module is laggy with long articles and I prefer working on my own user page. If I machine translate an entire article I cannot move it to my page because there's too much unchanged text. Could this be made possible?
I have WIP translation for the Europa 2, but unfortunately I can not publish the site, because of some "Lack of permission."

Hi, Roman Tička!
Every Wiki have some rules - English Wiki too. Read this rules

Hello Roman Tička,
You can only publish a translation on the English Wikipedia if you are an extended confirmed editor. You can learn more about this restriction on this page.
Thank you!
Oh, so I need to edit english posts to gain this access? I have been registered here for quite some time now, but I have only translated mostly mine locall stuff :D
You can still publish your translation as a draft and request a review of it at en:WP:AFC.
The Chechen language has been added to Google Translator, and it translates very well. Could you add to "Content translation"?
I support. This will greatly help the translation, since Wikipedia has very precise definitions.
Thank you all, for your feedback. Google has not updated these new languages in the Google translate API.
@UOzurumba (WMF), Thank you for your answer! Please tell me where and how can I find out when Google will update?
Unfortunately, there is no accessible and easy way for you to find out when Google will update their API. However, there is a ticket already for this work.
When reading articles and clicking the drop down menu for language selection, the "missing in x language and more" option always pops up at the top of the list after 1 second, this makes the list shift downwards and I always misclick when I wish to read in a different language. Please change it so that it doesn't pop up at the top. Pop at the bottom, always save space at the top and put a placeholder, move to the side, I don't care, just don't make the list shift.
Turns out this was reported almost a year ago, Phab:T344028, a proper fix is quite necessary.
@Sohryu Asuka Langley Not Shikinami @Baronedimare Hello, you can use this css on your global.css to mitigate this problem.
