Minecraft Wiki talk:Projects/Chinese translation

Who approved for this to be made? I don't see any discussion, or want, for a Chinese translation on the projects page. – ultradude25 ( T at 07:42, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * While I don't think projects need special approval, we should probably throw in a "get # members within # weeks and your project will be continued" rule somewhere, so we won't have projects that end up abandoned.--Quatroking -  MCWiki Administrator  15:32, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I say let them be... if they go no where, there's no real harm, if they do succeed, all the better for the wiki in general. At least with the project organization, there is a central location for people to look for things to do, and they keep the files organized and easy to find. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  14:33, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Well I'm just going on what you were talking to me about a few days ago about asking if anyone actually needs/wants this, and if anyone wants to be involved or have any suggestions for it. I don't see the point in people just starting projects that no one is interested in and their work being for nothing as the project would just die. – ultradude25 ( T at 23:54, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

Why I created this thread
There was a page on the forums about applying for wiki admin, so I wanted to be one.

Later on I found out there is no admin, so I just want to volunteer.

I got some friends and signed them up.

They said that they would translate a page every night.

I just want to know how to create a new page in this project
I wanted to translate some pages,but I could not create a page for this project.

System told me: You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason: You do not have permission to create new pages.

PS: In fact,we have translated many pages: http://mc314upbbs.w263.mydnns.com/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=67&page=1


 * This question has been asked several time (that includes me), and has been answered here. Basicly, your e-mail address have to be firstly confirmed, then you wait for 3 days and have make 10 edits. Then you will have permission. After you gained permission you can follow the instruction in the here to create a new page. Zhongguo 19:14, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
 * While you are waiting, please feel free to contribute to pages that have been started. :D -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  09:42, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

一些翻译的讨论
我建议大家统一一下一些翻译的标准并且适当调整一些翻译的内容.
 * 我建议将Coal和Charcoal分别翻译成煤炭和木炭，而不是碳和煤炭或者是碳和木炭. 因为碳的概念包含了木炭，而游戏中这是两个平等的道具.
 * 我建议将Flint and Steel 就翻译成火石，而不是火石和钢铁. 因为在汉语中说火石和钢铁是很别扭的. 而火石就可以完全表达道具的本质.
 * 火石有可能直接与Flint混淆，有些特定环境下或许可以考虑使用火镰这个词. 或者直接使用火石(工具)和火石(材料)进行区分. --ReVanTis 07:06, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
 * 我们还需要在翻译过程中确认一些东西的翻译标准:
 * 比如Item是翻译成道具好还是物品好？物品
 * 比如resource item该如何翻译（如何突出它们可以直接在地面上可拾取的特性）
 * 以及如何合理的翻译Block等游戏术语
 * 这样同时使翻译的语言优雅同时又不会丢失原文的深刻含义和暗示.
