Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Fwd: [Wikimedia-l] Looking for Wikipedians to add already translated articles

Hi Srikanth - I was thinking about specialized medical glossaries which can
totally be translated using translatewiki.net.

Best,
Alolita

 Correct me if I'm wrong.

 How about we kickstart a translation rally of sorts for not only

 We at WikiProject Medicine are working on a collaborative effort with
 Translators Without Borders (TWB), a group which includes 2,000 or so
 volunteer translators. We are working to translate key medical articles
 into as many other languages as possible. Currently we have translated
 content into 50 or so languages amounting to 2.3 million words of text.

 The process involves first bringing articles to either GA or FA status
 in
 English. They are then delivered, with MediaWiki markup in place, to the
 TWB website where the text is sent out to the translators. Once
 translated
 we at Wikipedia are notified via orange links on this page here:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:MED/Progress

 This issue currently is that we are missing Wikipedians in some
 languages
 to add / combine the translated content into the respective Wikipedia.
 Some
 of the article created through this process have reached feature article
 status including translations into Hungarian of anaphylaxis and
 hypertension. We currently have translated content in the following
 languages waiting to be integrated:

 Hindi

 Chinese

 Persian

 Tagalog

 Indonesian

 Macedonian

 Greek

 Bulgarian

 Danish

 Polish

 Swedish

 Arabic

 Ukrainian

 Dutch

 Czech

 Serbian

 Slovenian

 Spanish

 Telugu

 Tamil

 Punjabi

 Turkish

 Kurdish

 Thai

 Swahili

 Yoruba

 Kinyarwanda

 An overview of the efforts can be found here:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:TTF

 If you are interested in getting involved in adding translated articles
 instructions are here:

 If you have further question or comments I would welcome the feedback.
