Confusing language in dashboard toolbars

I have checked interface and blog language settings before I write this. They are all set to Turkish, my blogging language. However, some random links on dashboard appear in a different language, which looks like of South Asian origin. Examples: Tulisan Baru instead of news post/yeni yazı, bantuan instead of support/yardım.

I do not understand why this happened. Most other links are still in Turkish, but this worries me about potential hacking (individual or general).

Thanks!

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I had this issue and was stumped but it seemed that WP somehow changed my language..I was only able to fix it by logging into the WP site here and changing the language in the settings..It was set to some crazy stuff that I couldn’t even guess what it was. It didn’t change all my language just some of it in my dashboard and a lot of it was changed in my jetpack…stats and such. Hope that helps, Worked for me

I also have the same problems. And did the same ways to get rid of that foreign language but could’nt succeed. And also there are some advertisements that I have’nt authorised. I assume it is a common problem for Turkish users. Are we all hacked? Will you please fix the common problem?

Hi everyone,

Sorry about that! Some Indonesian translations were accidentally added to the Turkish translation of WordPress.com. I reported the issue to our team, and we will fix that as soon as possible. Thanks for letting us know about it. :)

Please let me know if I can help with anything else in the meantime.
