2007-09-28: This month Betawiki users have contributed to the localisation of almost 50 languages. Thank you!

Policy change: we deleted messages that were equal to those in fallback languages up to now. We will commit them from now on.

Translating:Intro

From Betawiki

Translation and localization is important in general, because it allows people who do not have knowledge of English to use computer software. MediaWiki is used for example to run Wikipedia in various languages, and therefore translating MediaWiki directly helps people to access free knowledge in their own language.

Here at Betawiki we're trying to build infrastructure for easy localization of MediaWiki. You don't need to know PHP programming language and its syntax, which may be hard to understand. If you are familiar with MediaWiki, you will have no problems with translating.

MediaWiki is currently used in more than 250 languages, but only handful of those languages are maintained. See current status of translations.
