Wiki Translation

We have installed the Translation Extension for MediaWiki. This will allow for 'Translators' to translate pages into other languages. This is a complicated task (however pretty easy to learn!) so if you have never used this extension before please take a few minutes to understand it before you just jump in.

NOTE: You may now add external links.

Pages marked for translation are listed HERE.

Basic Tutorial

 * Click on Edit and put and tags at the beginning and the end of the page you would like to translate.
 * When a Translater Administrator has marked the page for translation, go ahead and click "Translate this page".
 * Choose your Language and click on Fetch (Ignore the other options)
 * Now you may begin translating. Click the link on the left side of the English translation to bring up a pop-up window. Click on this symbol (↓) to copy and paste the English translation into the translation box. It's not required, but you are advised to do this as there may be important formatting information.
 * When translating PAGE links make sure you add the language tag at the end of the English word, add a |, and then the translated phrase.
 * E.g. Armor => Armure
 * Note that this is for PAGE links only. For the remaining ones, use create a REDIRECT. Like charbon (coal in French) goes to #REDIRECT Raw_Materials/fr
 * With the case of Categories, just add the language tag. There is no need to translate the word Category. E.g. =>
 * Translate what you can and click on Save. It is a good idea to leave a summary to let others know what is happening although if your action is the same as the previous summary, there is no need for another one.

Editing translations

 * To edit a translated page, click on "translated version" on top of the page.
 * Make sure you delete the "!!FUZZY!!" tag before saving.
