For most Wikipedia projects, you can embed the file normally (without a lang parameter). The Wikipedia will use its language if the SVG file supports that language. For example, the German Wikipedia will use German if the SVG file has German. To embed this file in a particular language use the lang parameter with the appropriate language code, e.g. [[File:US States by Incarceration Rate.svg|lang=en]] for the English version. Do not specify a lang parameter if it is not needed. The parameter may prevent the use of a subsequent translation.
To translate the text into your language, you can use the SVG Translate tool. Alternatively, you can download the file to your computer, add your translations using whatever software you're familiar with, and re-upload it with the same name. You will find help in Graphics Lab if you're not sure how to do this.
Summary
DescriptionUS States by Incarceration Rate.svg
English: A visual representation of states in the United States by the rate of incarceration per 100,000 U.S. residents (all ages) under the jurisdiction of state prison correctional authorities on December 31, 2014. The data used for the map does not include inmates in jails or federal prisons. Data is from Prisoners in 2014 NCJ 248955 p14t06.csv and p14t02.csv. See table 6 on page 8 of the PDF. It lists the rates by state. It also lists the federal imprisonment rate of 60 per 100,000 U.S. residents of all ages. That federal rate can be added to the state rate to get the combined state and federal prison rate. Table 6 also lists the number of state prison inmates for each state. Table 1 on page 2 of the PDF has the total number of federal inmates (210,567). See also: List of U.S. states by incarceration rate.
