PostgreSQL wiki:Language policy

From PostgreSQL wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

The PostgreSQL wiki supports posting content in several languages at the same time. In order to enable this, presuming the original version is in English, do the following:

  • Name your new page just like the English original one, except with a slash and a two letter country code from the Template:Languages list at the end. For example, if you were adding a Spanish version of a page where the English one was named Abc, your new page would be named Abc/es.
  • At the top of your new page, add something that looks like this: {{Languages|Abc}} where the second part is also the name of the English original.
  • Whenever possible, edit the original page, then copy/paste the entire thing onto the new one to get started. This assures all of the formatting will stay intact as you translate the text.
  • Save your new page after translation.
  • If the English original doesn't already have one, add to the beginning of it a simple {{Languages}} header at the beginning.
