Extension:Translate

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-organisation.

Features include:
 * In-wiki localisation, proofreading and exporting of software interface messages (or just about anything)
 * AJAX enabled web-based translation in supported browsers, as well as gettext based export and import for off-line translation.
 * Structured content page translation using the same system as interface translation.
 * Various aids to make the job of translators easier:
 * Display of translations in globally defined other languages, optionally expanded with user defined languages
 * Collaborative editing of documentation of the use and context of messages
 * Translation memory and machine translation with external tools (tmserver, Google Translate, Apertium)
 * Display of the latest change in the source message
 * Warnings about common mistakes like parameters that are not used.
 * Pre-made modules for various open source products you can use as an example.
 * A versatile plug-in system to make it easy to add new projects as a message group.
 * Various statistics (requires PHPlot for graphics)
 * Translation completion percentages for all message groups in all supported languages
 * Daily updates of completion percentages in all supported languages for any supported message group (if configured).
 * Tool for making activity graphs for spans of time. Can display either number of edits or active users daily or hourly and includes many filters.

Installation and configuration
Translate extension is using continuous development model, which means we are not doing any releases. You should get the latest version from svn and update from time to time to get new features and bug fixes. The core functionality is pretty stable, but there may be bigger changes from time to time. We might start doing actual releases if there is enough interest.
