====== Translation of DokuWiki documentation ======

To ease the translation of the DokuWiki documentation pages, the [[doku>plugin:translation]] plugin was installed at wiki.splitbrain.org. The plugin displays a language selector on all pages inside the wiki [[doku>namespace]]. Existing translations are shown in blue, missing translations are gray.

Only languages manually configured by the administrator are shown in the selector. If you want to add translations for a language currently not shown, just manually create the pages in the appropriate language subnamespace and send a mail to the [[doku>wiki:mailinglist#i18n_mailing_list|I18N mailing list]] asking for your language to be added.

For info about translating DokuWiki's interface language files, see the [[doku>wiki:multilanguage]] page.

===== Translation Guidelines =====

  * Feel free to create any missing translation
  * Only pages in the ''wiki'' namespace should be translated
  * translated pages need to have the same (english) name as the original page
  * translated pages have to be stored in a sub namespace of the ''wiki'' space named by the ISO language code
  * Please don't add stubs saying the page does not exist, yet.
  * A good starting point for translations is the [[doku>wiki:manual]]


===== Disabling translation feature for certain pages =====

Where translation is not sensible the %%~~NOTRANS~~%% macro should be inserted into the page.
