Hello, I would like to importo this module to it.wiki, but currently there are not localization options like for [[Module:Convert]]. I could try to move error message and some formatting options (like the decimal separator) to an external module ([[Module:Val/locale]]). Do you think this could be useful or they are reasons (performance maybe?) not to do this?[[User:Moroboshi|Moroboshi]] ([[User talk:Moroboshi|talk]]) 07:53, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
:Hi, we talked two years ago about convert. I never got around to providing l10n for val. I like simple stuff—see what I did to [[Module:Age]] on 31 March 2019. That was in response to a request I think at my talk which ended up at [[:bn:মডিউল আলাপ:বয়স|bnwiki]]. The point is that there is very little to localize and I don't really want an extra module to fuss with here. However, give it a go if you like. I'm not sure that "locale" is the right name. I temporarily forget what some modules use here, perhaps [[l10n]]? [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 09:37, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
::I just remembered a related issue for dewiki, see [[Template talk:Val/Archive 6#Comma as decimal separator]]. I found a local file on my computer where I apparently started work on localization but probably stopped when there was no feedback. I uploaded the file (patched with some recent changes to the main module) to the sandbox, see permalink at [[Special:PermanentLink/900088425|10:34, 3 June 2019]]. That is '''not tested'''. It was to handle numdot + numsep. Perhaps I abandoned it when I realized what a mess converting the wikitext would be. In the discussion at the archive link I pointed out that the example given used an en number for val's input (2.44) but they wanted a de number for the output (2,44). That would quickly cause immense confusion. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 10:43, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
