Localizing DokuWiki (the engine)
DokuWiki's user interface can be configured to use a lot of languages.
A list of available interface translations is available at the DokuWiki Localization Hub.
To translate DokuWiki to your own language, visit http://translate.dokuwiki.org/, choose or add your language and use the web based translation editor to create a new or updated language pack.
If you did a translation just send it to andi@splitbrain.org and it will be included in the next release.
Translators should join the Mailing List to be informed when new strings are added and need to be translated.
Translating OLPH Wiki (the documentation)
Translating the OLPH Wiki documentation here at olphgdium.gdium.com is encouraged. Translated pages are to be named like their English counterparts and stored in a separate namespace based on their ISO code. To make this easier the translation plugin adds links to existing and missing translations in the upper right corner of every page.
Only languages manually configured by the administrator are shown in the selector. If you want to add translations for a language currently not shown, just manually create the pages in the appropriate language subnamespace and send a mail to the the current wiki administrator asking for your language to be added.
Translation Guidelines
- Feel free to create any missing translation
- translated pages need to have the same (English) name as the original page
- translated pages have to be stored in a sub namespace of the
wikispace named by the ISO language code - Please don't add stubs saying the page does not exist, yet.
Disabling translation feature for certain pages
Where translation is not sensible the ~~NOTRANS~~ macro should be inserted into the page.
