Same content translated vs. different page entirely — a question we minimally investigated: do people understand the relationship between an article in one language and another? Despite the fact that the Bread article on English Wikipedia is quite different from the Pain (Bread) article on French Wikipedia about half the participants guessed that it was the same article that had just been translated into French. What are the implications of this lack of understanding? How might we help people better understand what is happening when they switch languages?
