Wikipedia is a multilingual project; as such, we may have articles on one subject available in many languages. The various languages each appear in semi-separate wikis, linked by interlanguage links.
Articles on the same subject in separate languages are independently editable and edited; they are not required to be translations of one another or to strictly maintain a correspondence in form, style, content, or attitude (so long as they all accord with the NPOV policy), though it is hoped that polyglots who work in multiple languages will help spread new information around between the articles in different languages. This page exists in support of that work.
Translating entire articles into another language can be helpful when getting started, but there are some caveats:
- Translation is hard. Amateur translators tend to produce prose that is unnatural, and perhaps incorrect when it comes to specialized terminology.
- Machine translation is much much worse. Never use machine translation to create an article! (This doesn't mean you can't use machine translation as a tool, but it does mean that machine-translated material dumped into the English-language Wikipedia is worse than nothing.)
This page exists as a place to request and to coordinate translations of articles from foreign-language Wikipedias into English. Creation of a similar page in any foreign-language Wikipedia is encouraged, but this page is not intended as a place to request translations in the opposite direction (i.e. from English to another language). That would belong on a meta-page of the appropriate Wikipedia.
Please note that for copyright reasons, this page is not for requesting translation of sources external to any Wikipedia. The exception to this is if you can also show that the license conditions of the source page would permit its redistribution under the GFDL, e.g. if the page is public domain or itself GFDL-ed, or if permission has been obtained from the author. In that case you should state the copying terms clearly with your request, including if relevant a link to a "terms and conditions" page of the source website.
See Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English for pages on the English Wikipedia that will shortly be deleted unless translated.
This page has two major sections:
Due to its length the list of translators has been moved to a separate page:
- Translators available. If you are interested, please sign up there.
There are also Instructions on how to deal with pages needing translation.
This project was started on February 10, 2004.
Instructions
To request an article please add a level-3 heading and indicate:
- Article
- link to foreign-language article in the form [[:xx:Title]]. Remember the initial colon before the language code. Without it the link will point to the equivalent of this translation page in the specified language.
- Corresponding English-language article
- <article name> (or None); should be filled in if article already exists or if someone does a partial translation.
- Worth doing because (Typically one or more of)
- No corresponding English article
- Material to incorporate into English-language article
- Seems to contradict English-language article
- Specialized local knowledge
- Originally Requested by
- <user> <date> (use ~~~~)
- Status
- (originally) "Unclaimed".
To take responsibility for the work, indicate "In progress <user> <date>".
If you're finished with what you can handle, but there is more to do: "Partially translated by <user> <date>".
One step past that might be "Translated, but review requested by <user> <date>".
If it's finished, mark it "Complete <user> <date>" and move it (as described below). - Other notes
- Anything else you want to add.
- Supported
- Other users can sign here to support the request.
Follow the last line with an HTML <br /> to keep the software happy: it does not preserve the presence of a blank line in a bullet list.
When writing a request on this page, you can also add {{translation request|LANGUAGE}} on the talk page of the equivalent English article, if one exists. Replace LANGUAGE with the language in which the original article is written. This produces the following message:
[[{{{pg}}}]]
The original article is in .
Please do indicate in the references section of the newly created article that an article in a foreign-language Wikipedia was among your sources. For example, the references section of the article "Paragraph 175" begins, "Much of the content of this article comes from the equivalent German-language wikipedia article (retrieved September 30, 2004). The following references are cited by that German-language article..." Note that something like this (without that last sentence) would be in order even if the German-language article did not cite any references of its own.
Also, please don't forget to add interwiki links all around.
When you complete work on an article, it would be polite to inform the original requester on his/her talk page, move this request to the talk page of the relevant article, and add an entry to Completed Translations.
After about 30 days, even that can be moved to Wikipedia:Translation archive

- I believe the official name of the church is Santi Cosma e Damiano, not sure what the best English article title would be. Some nice GFDL pictures there too that should probably be uploaded to commons if someone descide to translate the article. Only use the images used in the Wikipedia article though, one of the linked sites is obviously the source of the images and contain many more, however that site is lisensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 wich is incompatable with the Wikipedia. The person who run that site contributed those images to the Wikipedia article and released them under GFDL, but that only apply to those images, not the entire site. --Sherool 00:07, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

- I'm willing to undertake measures to translate the much more expansive and informative Swedish article into English, but no doubt, I will require immense community help from other fluent Swedophones. Once we get enough volunteers, I think we can start work. Eric June 30, 2005 16:36 (UTC)

- I have made a first translation - if you have the time and inclanation, and have a good grasp of english, then please proofread. I am especially concerned about the political/governmental terminology - translating swedish political terms from the early 1900's is quite difficult. -Di92jn
