Welcome to the ongoing project to translate the Minecraft Wiki into Chinese.
- 1 Ok, so what do I do?
- 2 General Guidelines
- 3 Alright, where do I sign up?
- 4 Roster
- 5 Progress
- 5.1 Pages in the process of being translated
- 5.2 Pages that need re-translation or improvement
- 5.3 Pages translated (in alphabetical order)
- 5.4 Pages that should not be translated
- 5.5 To-do List
Ok, so what do I do?
- First, go to the English version of the article's page and click "Edit". Select everything in the box and copy it.
- The Chinese version of the article Egg would be Egg/ch - just add /ch after the link to create the new page in Chinese. Paste in the original article and translate away!
- Don't forget to add the template
{{project|Chinese translation}}on the Chinese article to display a little box showing which page belongs to the project and add the article to the Chinese translation category. - Just before you start translating a page, put the link in Progress list (see section below) and make a note of the article you are translating so everyone's on the same page, to avoid redundancy or conflict in translations.
General Guidelines
- Try to preserve the same general style/syntax as original page - that'll make it easier on everyone, especially you!
- On the other hand, be reasonable when translating - don't feel too bound to the word-by-word syntax of the original article if it makes the rendered translation anything but conversationally informative.
- Whatever you do, don't copy-paste text to and from Google Translator and the wiki! Think of all the semi-fluent and native speakers who will agonize over the bad renditions of articles on their favorite game. :P
Alright, where do I sign up?
Right here. 祝你好运!
