Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Joy and Amir discuss translating the software that powers Wikipedia. The software is called "MediaWiki" and it's translated on a website called translatewiki.net. Twi, Ewe, and Ga languages are used as examples, but the information is applicable to all languages of the world.

Topics discussed:

  • Creating a translatewiki.net account.
  • The importance of translating the software user interface and not just the articles.
  • Choosing what to translate.
  • Correcting existing translations.
  • Choosing the terminology and building the surrounding community.
