Extension:Translate/id

The Translate extension makes MediaWiki a powerful tool to translate every kind of text. It's used especially to translate software and to manage multilingual wikis in a sensible way.

Features
The Translate extension has many features specifically targeted to translators, while making back-end integration with actual source code as easy as possible. Meanwhile, everything runs inside MediaWiki, which allows users an almost endless degree of freedom for communication and self-organization.

At the same time a translator can make adjustments so you're not creating lots of pages with inaccurate translations.‎That's ok if they are on different continents.‎That is actually a plus because work is getting done 24 hours a day.‎What they need is a support group chat for each other.‎They would all be able to read English if they are translating right? Teach a few simple wiki markup such as links and what to do with categories.‎Then they help others who in turn help others.‎We have over 40 in a chat who help each other and have fun at the same time.‎And they were all scared of the wiki but couldn't believe how easy it was once they started.‎They are actually waiting on me for more translations to do because I can't keep up with them.‎I know there is only 1 translating this language or that language.‎We have that too.‎One person is doing Swahili while another one is working on Japanese.‎Also, you mark pages for translation.‎You control whether to include templates or exclude variables in template calls.‎== See also ==‎* Extension:TranslationNotifications — an extension to facilitate communication with translators.‎Not to be confused with:‎used for one-off translation of wiki pages from one language to another.‎== How to contribute ==‎* [$twn Translate this extension at translatewiki.net]‎* [$bugs Open bugs and feature requests]‎* [$twn More open bugs and feature requests at translatewiki.net]‎* Proofread and translate the documentation of Translate extension‎Hide translatedListPageMediaWikiContent is available under CC BY-SA 3.0unless otherwise noted.PrivacyDesktopSpecial:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:Translate/File format support
