[TUX] Blacklisted languages are not shown as blacklisted when language was selected using the language selector
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Original bug title:
When entering the URL generated by the Translate extension into my browser's address bar it says: "Translate in zh please."

But when I choose zh-hant from ULS, it allows translating into Traditional Chinese (zh-hant) and it creates the URL, I later tried to enter in my browser's address bar (which fails with "Translate in zh please.").

Here is the URL: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Commons%3AVandalism&filter=&action=translate&language=zh-hant

Expected: Consistent behaviour.

Note that I use that ULS that appears after clicking the dropdown in Special:Translate

You can easily reproduce this:

On the other hand, go to https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Commons%3AVandalism&filter=&action=translate&language=zh-hant directly and you can't

zh-hant is blacklisted, so the warning is correct. However, I was able to save a translation in zh-hant...

I guess the solution should be to hide disabled languages in Extension:Translate's ULS dialog.

btw. bug 49907 spotted just now.

I have to invite shinjiman because he said this sentense on Portal talk:Zh of TWN which is very confusing:

By the way MediaWiki never disabled the zh-CN/zh-TW interface so those languages can be translated if the translations are different to their parent language.

I'm afraid, his so-called "can be translated" is also because of this bug
