RationalWiki:Languages

From RationalWiki
Jump to: navigation, search

While most of its editors share English as a common language, RationalWiki is fully supportive of articles in languages besides English.

Each project has its own template indicating that an article in the English RationalWiki has a counterpart in another language. For example, this page has a Spanish version, and {{Es}} is used on the right corner.

[edit] How to work on a language project

If you want to create an article in a language that currently has a project, follow these steps:

[edit] How to create a new language project

If you wish to create articles in a language that does not have an already existing project, we welcome it.

  1. Create a template in the style of Template:Es or Template:Fr to let readers know.
  2. Create a new article from scratch, or translate an existing article. If you wish to do the latter, follow these steps:
    1. Make a page in your userspace to work in. This looks like: [[User:USER/Página]].
    2. Copy and paste the wikitext of the article you want to translate into this page, OR have the wikitext in front of you.
    3. Translate bit by bit. When you're done, you can move what you've written in your userspace to the mainspace. For example, move [[User:USER/Page]] to [[Page]].
  3. Remember to put your language's template on the English language version of the page, and Template:En on the non-English page.
  4. You may also want to create a category for people who also speak your language, such as Category:Hablantes de español.
