Resolved, the Machine Translation works well now. Thank you for being patient.

I cannot add a translation paragraph in the 'Content Translation' tool, because I get a notification saying 'Automatic Traslation failed'. I have no way to turn off machine translation, so I can't add the paragraph either. I am trying to translate the "Dwight Hooker" page from the English wiki to the Italian wiki.

We have all the same problem. Content translation does not work anymore. What has happened? Can you repair it? (well, it ist not very important, because the tool could not do very much.)--~~~~

Hello all,

Sorry about this problem, it is being worked on and you can track progress in this ticket. Thank you for your patience.

One strange thing is, that it still works from de to fr - but where in the fr version on the right hand side the automated translated French text appears. "Anything to de" does not work, either. Can it be a problem that the problem occurs only on those wikipediae where not automated translation available, but only copy and paste of the original language with adjusting the links and templates?

I just tested a translation to en via the tool, which seems to work, although no automated translation is available there. It seems to have no influence on the problem. De to en works in paragraphs even with links.
