This project deals with converting articles from the '''Battlestar Wiki''' into other languages.
 
== 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.
 
The same goes for [[:de:Hauptseite|the German Battlestar Wiki]]. Do not use sub-pages, create or modify articles there.
 
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:
 
* In the search box, type in:
*: The Fleet/es:La Flota
* Press "Go".  Select "create this article" option.
* Begin translating the article.  Once done, list the article on this page under Articles Translated.
 
Once there are a growing number of articles, Joe will then set up an invidiual BSG Wiki for that language. (i.e. de.battlestarwiki.org for German BSG Wiki, et al.).
 
== Contributors ==

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 ==
