Content translation/Machine Translation/Google Translate/fr

Le support de la traduction automatique pour la traduction de contenu a été élargi. En plus de Apertium, LingoCloud, Matxin, Yandex et Youdao, nous sommmes en train d'ajouter Google Translate à la liste des systèmes de traduction automatique (machine translation - MT) disponibles pour les utilisateurs de la traduction de contennu. Ceci rajoutera un support de traduction automatique pour plus de 100 langues, comprenant plusieurs nouvelles langues qui n'étaient pas présentes antérieurement sur les systèmes.

Google Translate est fourni par Google – une compagnie de technologie multinationale basée aux Etats Unis. Various teams inside Wikimedia Foundation and Google have collaborated to work out an agreement that will allow the use of Google Translate without compromising Wikipedia's policy of attribution of rights, privacy of our users, and brand representation. Veuillez trouver les détails complémentaires de l'accord ; nous serions heureux de recevoir vos questions à propos de ce service.

Caractéristiques principales

 * Aucune information personnelle est transmise à Google Translate. L'accès au service de traduction automatique se fera via les services de Google cloud. Le contenu des articles (sous licence libre) est envoyé vers les serveurs Google à partir des serveurs de la Fondation Wikimedia. Il n'y a pas de communication directe entre l'utilisateur et les services externes et aucune information personnelle (adresse IP, nom d'utilisateur) n'est envoyée aux serveurs Google. Le client qui contacte les serveurs Google est de source libre (open source) et vous pouvez le vérifier ici. Aucune partie du service ou du code Google ne feront partie de l'infrastructure Wikimedia ni de la base de code de la traduction de contenu. Pour plus de détails, voir le diagramme de la configuration technique, à la fin de la section.
 * L'information renvoyée par Google Translate est sous licence libre. Lorsque Google Translate est utilisé, une version traduite du contenu Wikipedia sous licence libre, est obtenue. Les utilisateurs peuvent la modifier et la publier comme partie de Wikipedia sans enfreindre les polices existantes. The resulting content translated by Google Translate and the user modifications will be available under the same license that is used for the rest of the articles in Wikipedia.
 * Profite à la plus large communauté de traduction des sources libres. Translations obtained from Google Translate and user modifications will be publicly available. The post-edited translations are of special interest for the translation research community who can use this resource to create new translation services to support languages for which open source machine translation is not available yet. This will help developers create and improve machine translation systems.
 *  Users can disable it. Automatic translation is an optional tool in Content Translation.  Users have an option to disable it if they don't find it useful for some reason. Although many Content Translation users have requested for this translation service, each individual user may decide whether they would like to use it or not.

Obligations de Google

 * Use of their Translation API key at no cost to the Wikimedia Foundation to allow volunteers on Wikimedia sites to translate articles and as many characters as needed.

Obligations de la Fondation Wikimedia
Ces APIs seront développées de manière incrémentale, et les résultats seront disponibles librement pour tous et pas seulement pour Google.
 * To provide the volunteer-edited versions of the text translated by the translation tool so that Google can improve their tool
 * No personal data of translators will be shared.
 * Just the original content to translate, its language, and translation target language will be sent in the request to Google.
 * The translations published by translators, with or without the help of machine translation services, will be provided in the form of parallel corpora by the Content Translation APIs.

Notes importantes

 * Tout le contenu restera sous licence CC BY-SA 3.0
 * Google ne requiert aucune « publicité » sur les sites Wikimedia en dehors de l'indication que Google Translate est une option de l'outil de traduction dans le menu déroulant de l'interface de traduction
 * Il n'y a aucun échange d'informations personnelles concernant les bénévoles
 * L'accord est valable une année à l'issue de laquelle nos besoins seront réévalués
 * Nous sommes libres de mettre fin à l'accord pour n'importe quelle raison et à n'importe quel moment
 * L'accord est régi par la loi des USA

Questions relatives à ce service
Nous avons évoqué dans cette section quelques questions immédiates à propos de Google. Ceci est également disponible sur la page de la FAQ de la traduction de contenu.

Quelles langues sont gérées par Google Translate ? Est-il prévu d'en ajouter de nouvelles ?
Google Translate can be used to translate into all available languages except English, which is currently not enabled to use machine translation of any kind.

En quoi l'utilisation de Google Translate est elle différente de celle d'Apertium ?
As a user of Content Translation, you will not feel any difference on the translation interface as Google Translate will display the translated content in the same way Apertium currently does for the supported language pairs.

Comment est réalisée la traduction automatique si je choisis Google Translate ?
Google Translate provides an API key that allows websites and other services to use their translation system. La traduction de contenu utilise également cette unique clé d'API pour accéder aux services de Google Cloud pour Google Translate. When a user starts translating an article, the HTML content of each section of the source article is sent to Google Translate and a translated version is obtained and displayed on the respective translation column of Content Translation. Links and references are adapted as usual and users can modify the content as required.

This process continues for all the sections of the article being translated. For better performance, the translations for consecutive sections are pre-fetched. L'utilisateur peut sauvegarder la traduction non publiée (pour la reprendre plus tard) ou publier l'article de manière habituelle. L'article est publié sur Wikipedia comme tout autre article normal, avec sa paternité et les licences associées.

Google Translate n'est pas basé sur un logiciel libre. Pourquoi l'utiliser ?
Content Translation evolved from a long-standing need to bridge the gap in the amount of content between Wikipedias in different languages. Like all other software used on Wikimedia sites, Content Translation is also open source. In this particular case as well, we are using an open source client to interact with the external service and import freely licensed content in order to help users expand our free knowledge.

To use Google Translate we are not adding any proprietary software in the Content Translation code, or on the Wikimedia websites and servers. The service is free of charge as part of Google’s offering to the Wikimedia Foundation.

Only the freely available Wikipedia article content (in segments) is sent to the Google Translate and the obtained translated content is freely usable on Wikipedia pages. The translated content can be modified by users and this data is also available publicly under a free license through the Content Translation API. This is a valuable resource made available for the community to develop open source translation services for those languages where they don't exist yet.

After studying the implications carefully, we found the fact that the content was stored previously in a closed source service does not limit the freedom of our knowledge or our software in the present or the future. We have taken special care to make sure that the content provided is freely licensed to make sure it complies with Wikipedia policies. This includes a long process for legal and technical evaluation and compliance. The summary of our agreement is also available above.

From user feedback, we have seen that machine translation support is really helpful for users and we want to support all languages in the best way. Guided by the principles of Wikimedia Foundation's resolution to support free and open source software, we will prioritize the integration of open source services whenever they are available for a language. Apertium has been a critical part of Content Translation since its inception, but currently, it only provides machine translations for about 30 of the numerous possible language combination that Wikipedia can support.

Devrais-je m'inquiéter au sujet de mes données personnelles en utilisant Google Translate ?
Irrespective of the service being used, you can be sure that only Wikipedia content from existing articles is sent and only freely licensed content will be added back to the translation. No personal information is sent and communication with those services happen at the server side, so they are isolated from the user device. Please refer to this diagram for more details.

Que faire si Google Translate est le seul outil de traduction automatique disponible et que je ne veux pas l'utiliser ?
Machine Translation is an optional feature in Content Translation that you can easily disable at will. If more machine translation systems are added for your languages, you can choose to enable MT again and select the MT service of your choice.

Le texte traduit avec Google Translate sera-t-il libre d'utilisation dans Wikipédia ?
Yes. The content received from Google Translate is otherwise freely available on the web translation platform. Content Translation receives it via an API key to make it seamlessly available on the translation interface. This content can be modified by the users (if necessary) and used in Wikipedia articles under free licenses.

Est-ce que ce contenu peut être utilisé pour améliorer les systèmes de traduction automatique en général ?
Yes. Translations made in Content Translation are saved in our database. This information will be made publicly available for anyone to use as translation examples to improve their translation services (from University research groups, open source projects to commercial companies, anyone!). The content can be accessed via the Content Translation API. Please note, only information related to translated text is publicly available. This includes – source and translated text, source, and target language information and an identifier for the segment of text.
