User:TiagoLubiana/Beginners guide to translation
This is a introduction to using the templates for translation!
They are super cool, and the doc page has lots of information (Help:Extension:Translate/Page_translation_administration), but it has too much information.
This is a guide to get started with translations on Wiki projects.
The Extension:Translate is a tool to standardize wiki content accross languages. It can be used on wikiproject pages, documentation pages and so on.
Who can add translations?
[edit]Anyone can mark pages with translation tags, but they can only be really be made a translation-enabled page by administrators.
Adding tags
[edit]Text for translation is marked with <translate> and </translate> tags.
These are added around the chunks of text that will be translated by translators.
There are a few rules about how to best use those tags, but generally, just keep the chunks of text between the tags small.
