Wiki Translations
Wiki translations are sorely needed. We want to make Plex as accessible as possible to all users. To translate a wiki page follow these steps:
- Find a page that needs translating. We suggest you start with the main page or one if it's direct links
- Click edit and copy the source of that page
- Create a new page appending /code to the page name URL (i.e. http://wiki.plexapp.com/index.php/Main_Page/se)
- Translate a portion or all of the page.
- Also translate the links so they point to corresponding translated pages. The links will show as red (bad), this will encourage others to help translate them.
Some things to note
- Links - For example [[Getting Started]] would be linked like the following [[Getting Started/sv|Kom-igång-guide]] This way the link is called the translation but it points to the /sv version. Also by default the link will point to an invalid page. This will help others find pages which they can translate.
- Language Template - At the bottom of each page you should find {{Languages}} This gets changed to reference the page you are translating like so {{Languages|Main_Page}}
- Language codes - Language codes can be found here make sure you use the appropriate one so the wiki can identify them.
- The English part of the wiki may change at any time. If you have time and can setup an RSS feed of Special:RecentChanges this would be very helpful. This feed tracks all changes and can help you easily keep your translations up to date.
You can use http://wiki.plexapp.com/index.php/Main_Page/de as a reference.
