Project pages Bearbeiten
All languages Bearbeiten

Translation of a project page Bearbeiten
Under ~sk/checkwiki on the Toolserver, you will find for every project a translation text (dewiki/dewiki_translation.txt). Please copy this file at your page of translation (for example in de: Wikipedia:WikiProjekt Syntaxkorrektur/Übersetzung). Then you can translate the text in that file. With the next run of the script, that page will be used for the automatic translation of the project site. If I insert a new error and the script doesn't find the translation at your page of translation, then the new error appears in English.
# Example for frwiki error_005_prio_script=1 END error_005_head_script=Comment not currect end END error_005_desc_script=Found a comment "<!--" with no "-->" end. END error_005_prio_frwiki=-1 END error_005_head_frwiki=Commentaire non fermé END error_005_desc_frwiki=Un commentaire "<!--" sans la balise "-->" a été trouvé. END
Thanks, to all translators.
