I have a peculiar problem. Someone has started translating an article from English to Kannada. But that user has stopped the translations after doing almost 50% of the work. If I try to translate the same article, it does not allow me to do so. I don't get the half done article so that I can continue from there. I want an option where multiple users (editors) will be able to translate simultaneously, ie, different editors translating different parts of the article AND/OR an option where another user (editor) can continue from where the other user has left.
Topic on Talk:Content translation
I demand to same things. Thanks Pavanaja.
Hello Pavanaja !!!
Could you please tell me which article you tried to translate because I would like to follow up for learning.

私も学習のため追試をしてみたいのでどの記事を翻訳しようとしたのか教えていただけませんか。

This one - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Severe_acute_respiratory_syndrome_coronavirus_2. I am trying to translate into Kannada. It says it is being translated by Dhanalakshmi K T. It seems I can translate only if the other user deletes the half done translation.
Hello Pavanaja !!!
Thank you for your answer to my question. I will try it too and report later. By the way, I may make mislead. I am just a general user interested in this tool.
Thank you !!!

Hello Pavanaja !!!
Sorry for the late reply.
I also tried the extra test. Certainly the same symptoms occurred.
As a matter of fact, I thought you are a beginner like me, and you were in trouble with this situation, so I tried to propose a workaround and reply.
However, you are a veteran editor, who is not particularly worried and seems to have been written as a bug report.
Therefore, I will suggest no workaround.
However, I am wondering if this symptom is an error or a specification, so I will ask user:Pginer-WMF.
Thank you !!!

Hello Pavanaja !!!
お返事が遅くなってすみません。
私も追試をしてみました。確かに同じ症状が起きました。
実は、あなたも私同様の初心者で、今回の事態にお困りのようなので、回避策を提案しようと思って、replyしました。
しかし、あなたはベテランの編集者で、特にお困りというわけではなく、あくまでバグレポートとして書かれたようです。
したがって、回避策の提案はしません。
ただ、この症状がエラーなのか仕様なのかは気になるので、user:Pginer-WMFに質問するつもりです。
Thank you !!!
