            Bug ID: 49712
           Summary: Add translation layer after transcription is verified
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: ProofreadPage

I've started using Extension:ProofreadPage to structure the transcription of a
body of German and Italian manuscripts from the 14th to 17th centuries, and the
project also includes translating these manuscripts to English. I initially
tried to use the Translate extension to structure this process, but it only
accepts text in the same language as the core wiki (so no translating *to*
English).

So I'd love to see a feature implemented in which a validated Page can then be
translated to English (or whatever the core language is), possibly by moving
the validated transcription into the right-side div and having the input box on
the left side accept the translation. This should probably also have two-user
verification like transcription does.

I don't need paragraph separation or translator API support or anything else
that Extension:Translate offers, just a way to enter and store a translation
with the transcription for each page.

A feature like this would not only be useful to me, but would also benefit
Wikisource I'm sure. Thanks.
