Automated news translation
There have been several discussions about implementing machine assisted
translation tools on Wikipedia. Wikinews would strongly benefit from this too,
because it would make reporting more cost effective by bringing the total
number of stories generated to a higher number. Most projects have their own
review process before publishing and their own local style guides. Some of the
localization information is available on English Wikinews. There is no
preference for the technical backend of how automated news translation is done,
nor any specific requirements for the amount of human assistance needed to
insure article publication. The community is willing to discuss any potential
experiments in implementation.
Laura Hale and pi zero, both on the provisional board of The Wikinewsie Group
would be keen to act as mentors for how to implement this from a community
perspective. Some limited technical assistance may be available. The tool may
also be useful for educational outreach programs and some Commons uploading
activities.
