Translation Guide

How to Translate a Page

  • Create a new page. Use the same title, but with a language prefix at the start of the page.

For example:

  • French: `fr:Contribute/Translate`
  • Japanese: `ja:Contribute/Translate`
  • Indonesian: `id:Contribute/Translate`
 See the list of ISO 639-1 language codes that MediaWiki uses for language prefixes.
  • Add a notice at the top of the new translation page and link back to the original page.

For example:


This is a translation of [[Contribute/Translate]] from English to French.

  • Translate the page using clear, consistent terms.
  • Annotate if needed to reflect cultural or linguistic context.

For instance, if a term carries a different meaning in your region, or your language shifts the concept in translation, feel free to add a footnote, or include a short translator’s note to briefly explain the nuance.

  • At the bottom of the page, add this tag to include it in the translation category:
