Extension talk:Translate/Mass migration tools/Requirements

Some thoughts
Step 1: Step 2: I can't wait! :P -- Ricordi  samoa  18:25, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
 * special attention on Wikimedia projects is given to internationalization and localization: please be sure to make strings like "TNT" configurable in your code, even if your tool will be probably used at first on Meta and Commons only;
 * insert "Special:MyLanguage/" before links only when needed (e.g. for help and project pages that could be potentially marked for translation, but not for user pages: smart AI!), and translated to the language of the wiki;
 * ll could also serve the same purpose.
 * drag-and-drop is a must-have feature, but also more advanced controls should be provided (if a paragraph has to be split before matching with the original text);
 * please consider designing a system so that users can help TAs migrating old translations in languages they speak (I often went to pieces while migrating texts in non-Latin alphabets!): very detailed user language preferences are already used by the Translate extension;
 * I don't get the last item: what do you mean with "language navigation template"?
 * Thanks for your feedback! Yes, I would try my best to make "Special:MyLanguage/" prefix work smartly! We will consider your suggestions for step 2 for sure. And my bad, I used the wrong terminology. I meant the language bar at the top (as seen in the image), useful for switching between the languages in which the translations are present.
