Help:Translations/fr

Introduction
For numerous reasons we want to make this wiki available in as many languages as we can. For that, we are going to need the community's help to pull it off. Lots of people already said they wanted to help with translating but not everybody knows how MediaWiki or our translation system works. So here a small guide into translating.

The current progress of the translation can be viewed here.

Préparer les Pages
Before anything translating can happen the page first needs to be prepared for translating. At the moment this is done by editors or administrators. If you have a specific page that you wanted to translate but that is not prepared, you can contact us on Discord and we will review the page.

Traduire
Si vous êtes assigné dans un groupe de traducteurs, vous devriez déjà être en mesure de commencer. Le moyen le plus facile pour traduire se trouve sur la page Special:Translate.

Before translating pages, it is recommended that you translate the i18n templates first as they are used throughout the whole wiki and serve as a standard for technical phrases.

Sections
As you can see on the translation page every page is divided into sections. This helps to divide work between translators and help maintain context and consistency.

When clicking on a section you will see the original source text (in English) up top and you will be able to insert your translation on the box below it.

Modifications
Translated pages are not directly editable. If you see a mistake in the text correct it on the original English page. If you see a mistake in translating you can edit them on the Special:Translate page under the tab 'Translated'.

Si vous avez d'autres questions, vous pouvez les poser sur la page de discussion.
