<span class="mw-headline" id="Introduction"> Introduction </span></h2> <p>As the word "international" in IMSLP suggests, IMSLP strives to be international, and not purely English-oriented. Therefore, IMSLP is looking for people who are willing to translate some of the basic pages into other languages. We also need people to help us update existing translations as the English pages change. </p><p>Translations should be done <b>from the English version only</b>. This is to prevent translation errors to spread across multiple translations, and to make sure that at the time of translation the page is up-to-date. (In particular, there is no need to translate this page, as translators will need a good understanding of English anyway.) </p> <h2> <span class="mw-headline" id="Languages"> Languages </span></h2> <p>Below is a list of translations-in-progress and their respective translators. For some languages, a subpage has been created to better coordinate the work of multiple translators. Feel free to create subpages for the other languages whenever the need arises. For some languages, an IMSLP discussion forum is also available. </p><p><b>Note:</b> </p> <ul><li> Automatic tagging of outdated translations is not yet implemented for all pages. </li><li> The <a href="/wiki/Category:Outdated_translations" title="Category:Outdated translations">lists of outdated translations</a> may sometimes not work correctly. There may be tagged outdated translations which don't show up in the lists. </li><li> The lists of existing translations in the table below may be <b>incomplete</b>. (Only pages with version control implemented will show up in the lists.) </li></ul> <table class="prettytable plainlinks"> <tr> <th>Code </th> <th>Language </th> <th>Translator(s) </th> <th>Translated

title="IMSLP:Babel">IMSLP:Babel</a> to find other speakers of your language! </p> <h2> <span class="mw-headline" id="How_to_start_a_new_translation"> How to start a new translation </span></h2> <p>To start a new translation, first translate the Main Page as explained below. When you're done, contact an <a href="/wiki/IMSLP:Staff_contact_list" title="IMSLP:Staff contact list">administrator</a> who will make it appear in the language list. You can then proceed translating the other important pages listed below. </p> <h2> <span class="mw-headline" id="How_to_translate_a_page"> How to translate a page </span></h2> <p>There are two basic methods to translate a page: if the entire page needs to be translated, then the translation should be put on a separate page. If on the other hand only part of a larger page needs to be translated (for example, the introductory section of a category listing), then the translation will be added on the same page, along with a special code which causes the right language version to be displayed depending on the user's preferences. </p> <h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="Complete_translation_of_a_page"> Complete translation of a page </span></h3> <p>This method is preferred, especially for large complex pages that are not updated too frequently. The languages of the available translations will appear in the bottom of the left pane (just like on Wikipedia). </p> <ol><li> First, create a new page with translated title and carefully translate the contents. </li><li> Go to or create a page with the prefix <code>Template:OtherLangs:</code> followed by the English name of the page (ex. <a href="/wiki/Template:OtherLangs:Score_submission_guidelines" title="Template:OtherLangs:Score submission guidelines">Template:OtherLangs:Score submission guidelines</a>). </li><li> Add links to the available translations of the source page to this OtherLangs page. The format is [[LanguageCode:TranslatedPageName]]. </li><li> Add {{OtherLangs:EnglishPageName}} to the top of your translation, to the source page, and every other translation, unless it's already done. </li></ol> <h4> <span class="mw-headline" id="Page_titles"> Page titles </span></h4> <p>Some page titles have a prefix like <code>IMSLP:</code> or <code>Help:</code>. These are needed for the software to distinguish between different groups of pages, which can be searched separately with the search engine. Please do <b>not</b> translate these prefixes or they will not be recognized by the software. E.g. if you translate a help page, make sure that the title still starts with <code>Help:</code>, and translate only the part of the title after the prefix. </p> <h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="Inline_translation"> Inline translation </span></h3> <p>This method is intended for translating short text in complex pages, and in templates. It is also the preferred method for the <a href="/wiki/IMSLP:News" title="IMSLP:News">News</a> section. The following code is to be inserted in the section that is translated: </p> <pre>{{#iflang:en=english translation |xx=translation in xx |yy=translation in yy }} </pre> <p>The pipe symbol "|" , and hence tables and templates, do NOT work inside the #iflang. See also <a href="/wiki/IMSLP:Internationalization/Old_IFLANG" title="IMSLP:Internationalization/Old IFLANG">IMSLP:Internationalization/Old IFLANG</a>, <a href="/wiki/IFLANG_testpage" title="IFLANG testpage" class="mw-redirect">IFLANG testpage</a>. </p> <h2> <span class="mw-headline" id="Version_Control">Version Control</span></h2> <p>It is important that the translations keep track of the original version of the page. Therefore, <b>each translated page needs <a href="/wiki/Template:AutoOldtrans" title="Template:AutoOldtrans">Template:AutoOldtrans</a> on top of it.</b> Outdated translations will automatically enter <a href="/wiki/Category:Outdated_translations" title="Category:Outdated translations">Category:Outdated translations</a>. </p> <h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="Status">Status</span></h3> <p>Version control is on all main pages and now being added to other pages. </p> <h2> <span class="mw-headline" id="What_to_Translate"> What to Translate </span></h2> <h3> <span class="mw-headline" id="Basic.2FEssential_Pages"> Basic/Essential Pages </span></h3> <p>The essential pages are as listed below, in descending order of importance.
