The MediaWiki namespace pages are stored in the database. If there is a problem
connecting to the database, then the namespace is inaccessible. I hope you see
where I'm coming from. Perhaps you could tell us what the incorrect text and the
replacement text are?

The exactly problem was the verb hacer. It was conjugated as has (2nd person),
but it should be haz (imperative)

It should be

"Wikipedia es ahora uno de los sitios más visitados en la Internet, y la
Fundación Wikimedia debe constantemente comprar hardware nuevo. Si deseas
ayudarnos, por favor haz una donación."

Thanks

Misspelling in the spanish version of our multilingual error message is
still present. Please just change the word "has" before the donation link
in the last sentence to "haz" as requested above and on Meta before.

Is this already FIXED?

Can't know as i don't know how to make an error so i can check what the current
message is. ;)

But as far as nobody changed the bug status i guess nobody noticed/tried to fix it.

As today's failure, the error message hasn't changed a bit since the bug was opened.

Someone changed it. Now it has a new text. It's not the proposed here, but it's
ok. :-)

Hem... What about translating the donation form too? It may be a bit tricky, as
we're not using real translation but a CSS hack, but is an improvement we should
made.

I also see some HTML commented text at the form. Probably should be removed.

Marking as fixed since the message changed.

For the donation form open a new bug or discuss about it in
the mailing lists.
