== Overview == | == Overview == | ||
Presently, all of the content on this wiki is in [[Wikipedia:English language|english]] -- American english, to be specific. We have people who view this Wiki from other countries, as far away as Europe. And likely further. | |||
Therefore, this is a formal effort to recruit mutli-lingual contributors and organize these contributors to translate our documents in other languages. | |||
== How to Begin == | |||
For the Spanish-language Battlestar Wiki, post or begin your Spanish translated articles on [[:es:Portada|the Spanish Battlestar Wiki]]. Do not use sub-pages any longer. | |||
For all others, please follow the translation guide below. | |||
=== For those that don't have wikis of their own === | |||
Since we don't have a setup similar to Wikipedia (where Wikipedia has individal German, Italian, and Portuguese editions of Wikipedia), here is how translated articles can be added. | |||
To begin, create a subpage of the article you wish to translate. For instance, let's say you were going to tackle the article on [[The Fleet (RDM)|The Fleet]] and translate it into Spanish. Here's how you would begin: | To begin, create a subpage of the article you wish to translate.

== Articles Needing Translation == | |||
Obviously our eventual goal is to have just about everything translated. Rather than listing every page here, this can be used to request critical pages for translators to focus on. | |||
*[[Battlestar Wiki:Spoiler Policy]] - All languages, but particularly German (to go with the spoiler templates below), and French. | |||
*[[Battlestar Wiki:Standards and Conventions]] - All languages (to give new contributors a common reference to work from). | |||
== Language Specific Spoiler Checkpoints == | |||
''Feel free to adjust the title of this section.'' <BR/> | |||
This section is intended to be a handy place to keep track of how far the series has progressed in the particular languages, in order to avoid translating spoiler content over from the English side. | |||
* German | |||
**[[You Can't Go Home Again]] - Airs 08 March, 2006. | |||
* French | |||
**[[Pegasus (episode)|Pegasus]] - 26 February, 2006. | |||

**[[Litmus/es:Bajo la Mira]] - (almost done, only the synopsis is left) | |||
**[[Scattered/es:Dispersos]] - If anyone knows how to add the Contents to the page please do, I'm having a hard time getting it to work. Gracias | |||

**[[Battlestar Wiki:Standards and Conventions/jp:バ ツスタ-ヰキ:標準及び大会]] - Just started and my translation is a bit rough but I think it will be ok for just beginning. I should be able to refine it a little more later. Leobon I can use any help you can give me, thanks. | |||
**[[Battlestar Wiki:Standards and Conventions/jp:バ ツスタ-ヰキ:標準及び大会]] | ***I have noticed that I can translate a lot of these articles into Japanese. I have the vocabulary, what I don't know I can look up, but my grammar isn't there. Is this a project that I should be pursuing if my grammar isn't 100%? I feel like even if I wasn't on completely, I could still save whoever comes (maybe no one) after me. If I had the articles mostly translated they'll have to fix parts of an article rather than translating and writing entire articles. Before I continue on with anything else I wanted to see what my fellow bsg wikipedians think. please respond on my talk page [[User Talk:Zarek Rocks]], I'll be posting this there as well. Thank you all for your advice, it's really appreciated. | ||
