Version: CVS (using KDE KDE 3.4.0) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc-Version 3.4.3-20050110 OS: Linux I would like to have a locale choice like the different Amazon locales (International, German, ...) for the new Wikipedia tab. Thank you and keep up your excellent work!
Yep, this will be integrated, don't worry. The feature is only a couple of days old :)
I think current solution isn't what we want. You see, you have alwasy fetch the pages from en.wikipedia.org. But for those artists whose name are not in English (CJK), en.wikipedia returns nothing. A better solution would be fetching from locale-dependent sub-sites according to the settings in Klocale. Say, I've selected Chinese and English in klocale as my preferred languages. amaroK should fetch pages in zh.wikipedia.org, then en.wikipedia.org if failed.

There could also be a setting in Amarok, so as to choose to use the KDE locales (from Accessibility) for wikipedia or to set other ones.
It would be even better to allow to search on many wikipedias: I'm usually listening a mix between US/en and fr music... And the search should preferably be limited to the 'music' article... For the french band 'Tarmac', the search actually returns an english article explaining the interest of the 'tarmac' for roads, when an article for the right band exists in the french wikipedia, in the 'music' section.

I think the more preferable solution is analyse the Unicode range of the combination of Artist, Album and Song title. The content must could be represented in some certain language. Then search the wikipedia in that language.
BTW, is there an easy way to know that there is no such wikipedia page when trying a lookup? Wikipedia just returns a valid html page. As to guessing the language: this is quite impossible. E.g. German and English have many characters in common and many absolutely correct German titles only use characters that are also valid for English.
Created attachment 14114 [details] Patch for amarok 1.3.7 for localization of Wikipedia fetching It is only consisting in using the i18n() function in contextbrowser.cpp and update the po files
Oh, we forgot to close, this. Sorry :) It's already implemented in 1.4.
