Here's a list of various RTL-related issues and suggestions (at least those that are worth mentioning).
TL;DR : The website may require a rewrite to properly support RTL languages

  1. Search boxes
  • Punctuation marks (like these three trailing dots) appears on the wrong side of the sentence.
  • Image
  • Should be the following:
    • "چاري کاندوڠن ويکي..."
    • "چاري ڤروجيک..."
    • "ڤناڤيس چارين..."
  1. "Heads up!" boxes
  • Exclamation mark appears on the wrong side of the word.
  • Image
  • Should be:
    • "ڤرهاتين!"
  1. The "About us" box
  • The order of the sentence gets messed up whenever there is a non-RTL word inside a RTL sentence.
  • Image
  • The first row of the paragraph should be:
    • "ويکي اين دبينا دان دسلڠݢارا اوليه Sinytra⹁ سبواه ڤاسوقن ڤمباڠون"
  1. Header, footer and sidebar orientation
  • Not an issue necessarily, but I think when you choose a RTL language (like Jawi Malay, Arabic or Hebrew), the header and footer should go from right to left, and the sidebar inside wikis should swap places ("Documentation" sidebar should be on the right, while the "Project Information" sidebar should be on the left).
  1. Text anchoring
  • Also not an issue, but texts on the website should also be anchored to the right instead of to the left when a RTL language is used. Although, unless the wiki contents are contained in their own separate space within the website page (which I'm assuming it is), this would cause even LTR texts to be also anchored to the right, which would be weird.

Will add more in the comments as more strings gets added...
