Topic on Talk:Content translation

Content translation has been already used to create some articles in Portuguese Wikipedia.

We want to hear more about your experience translating articles into Portuguese: the features you find more useful, issues you found or even specific articles you had problems with.

Feel free to share your feedback.

Issues about translating Alpinia conchigera from es-wiki to pt-wiki:

Clicking on categories, left pannel, top, inserts categores on the bottom; the right pannel only shows the categories tha exists on both wikis; it would be useful to have the possibility to add on the right pannel also those that do not exist on pt-wiki

Could not find a way to add links to not existant articles on pt-wiki

The content of the ref section was blank

The overall translation accuracy is good, say, 80% of the content was fine, although the article was very short

Thanks.

I miss a CTRL+Z feature to undo the accidental click in the "insert source text", which made me loose the text I already had translated.

The Portuguese article should be linked to the English article (through Wikidata) automatically. I had to edit the language links manually.

It adds some unwanted formatting, such as ids, classes, data- attributes, br tags, nowiki tags,

I just remembered that after I moved the page from my user space to the main namespace, it displayed a Guided Tour which I think should have been displayed before the page was moved.

My first test (John Barrowman from en to pt) was partially successful; the tool created the page as an article in the mainspace instead of creating it in my userspace, even though I got numerous notifications saying otherwise.
