روش‌های متفاوتی وجود دارد برای اینکه شما بتوانید یک ترجمه را شروع کنید. One way may be preferred over another depending on whether you already have an article to translate in mind, you want to discover new possibilities for translation, or you just want to continue an existing translation that you started earlier.

Note that Content translation is still in beta, and the entry points described below are only available when you enable this beta feature and are logged-in.

Contributions page entry points

Your contributions page is extended to incorporate the possibility to translate in a menu to start a new contribution. This is only visible for your own contributions page when Content translation is enabled.

Your contributions page is a main entry point to start a translation. You can access this page from the "Contributions" link that appears next to your user name on top. The page includes quick access to frequent ways to contribute, including the access to translation.

This is a persistent access point to the translation dashboard where you can start a translation anytime.

Contributions menu

The menu that appears when you hover your mouse pointer over the Contributions link.

For a quick convenient access, the options provided to start a translation on your contributions page are also surfaced on a menu when you hover over the "Contributions" link. In this way, the number of steps to access your translations are reduced for devices with pointing devices supporting hover.

Grey language links

When you read content in one language, you may wonder whether such content is available in other languages you know in order to create it if it's missing. For those cases, surfacing the languages in which the content is missing and you can contribute to can be convenient.

Grey interlanguage links are shown in the usual list of languages that you can find on the sidebar of a Wikipedia page when it is available in multiple languages. Unlike the regular language links, the grey links represent missing content that you can help create.

Grey links are only shown for languages you have accessed before, to avoid crowding the list of languages with missing languages that you may not be able to translate into.

Accessing a grey language will show a dialog where you can provide the title for your translation and start it right away.

Translation dashboard

Content translation dashboard, showing suggestions.

The translation dashboard can be accessed directly, or by using some of the entry points described above. It is the central place where you can manage your translations, start new ones, explore suggestions for articles to translate, and check your translation progress.

Suggestions

The translations dashboard includes a suggestions tab where you can access a list of suggestions. This is convenient when you don't have a clear idea of what to translate and you want to look for an interesting topic that is missing in your language.

The suggestions provided combine personalised suggestions based on previous translations you have made as well as general suggestions based on the languages you selected. The option to refresh the suggestion allows to get suggestions based on a different criteria.

Invites to translate

The option to translate is also provided at different points where it may be relevant to editors as they participate in other contribution activities. The table below extracts from the Entry Point catalog the different opportunities specifically about translation. The notes include links to the Phabricator tickets and notes on the instrumentation identifiers.
