I added a new feature for JOSM webpages: The TranslatedPages macro now
suports a parameter "revision" (used e.g. in De:WikiStart). This should be
set to the revision of the base page for the time of last translating the
page. Whenever the base page is changed, the languages menu then contains
a link to the differences as last entry. This should help to keep
translations in sync and also make keeping translations up-to-date easier.
What I forgot:
It would be fine when some of the translators of the Wiki add the
(revision=xxx) parameter to their pages (I can't verify what revision a page
really refers too except for German :-) When this is used one more pages,
than probably the remaining ones will be updated step-by-step.
Best would be to check and update page to current revision and the set
"revison=" to the current revision. In case you don't know the number:
* You find it in Page history of english page,
* Or set it to 1 and do a page "Preview", then you get the newest one
displayed with the diffs :-)
The second method can also be used to find the correct older revision in case
you don't have time to adapt to changes in English original. Simply increase
revision and do preview until there are only changes not yet integrated in
the current text.
Suggestions and improvements welcome.
I created the new page https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Translations,
which describes the whole issue a bit more in detail. Except Russian and
French I updated all translated pages to support the revision parameter.
Happy New Year to all of you
