<p><b>New page</b></p><div>This page describes the current multi-lingual policy on MediaWiki.org.<br />
<br />
== Help: namespace ==<br />
<br />
Within the <code>Help:</code> namespace we are building a set of public domain help pages. The aim is to provide a basic set of help pages that may be imported into new wikis covering the basic editing and usage instructions. These should be translated into as many languages as possible.<br />
<br />
* English is the main reference language, and all root pages should be named and written in English.<br />
* Other languages should be placed in an appropriately named sub-page of the English version. E.g. the French version of [[Help:Contents]] should be at [[Help:Contents/fr]] (not Help:Sommaire, Aide:Sommaire or Help:Sommaire/fr).<br />
* Language sub-pages should be named using the appropriate language code for that language (see [[#Language codes|below]]).<br />
* Sub-pages should ''only'' be used for translations into other languages, not for English content (e.g. you shouldn't use <code>Table editing/example</code> - use <code>Table editing example</code> or <code>Example of page editing</code> instead).<br />
* If an international version of a page exists but an English version does not, then please create a stub article for the English version as this aids navigation.<br />
* All pages in the help namespace should be tagged with the <code>{{[[template:Languages|Languages]]}}</code> template, which automatically creates links to all available translations.<br />
<br />
This system will be compatible with the [[Automating help page export|automated import/export of Help pages]], but may need a bit of working around to export/import non-English pages in the interim.<br />
<br />
== The main page ==<br />
<br />
The English version of our front page is located at [[MediaWiki]]. Translated versions are located at MediaWiki/code, where code is the language code (e.g. [[MediaWiki/fr]]. Please see [[Project:Main page templates]] for more details about creating or editing this content.<br />
<br />
Importantly, the rules about language codes (see [[#Language codes|below]]) should be followed here as well.<br />

<br />
== Other namespaces ==<br />
<br />
Apart from the Main Page, no policy has yet been decided about other namespaces. For the time being, if you would like to create translations for pages in other namespaces then please do so as described for the Help: namespace, however content may be moved or deleted depending on the policy that is eventually adopted.<br />
<br />
Discussion is ongoing at [[Project:Current issues#Localisation outside the Help: namespace|Project:Current issues]].<br />
<br />
''Note that the rule that English content should not be placed in sub-pages does not apply to other namespaces. This is one of the issues that needs resolving.''<br />
<br />
== Language codes ==<br />
<br />
Throughout MediaWiki.org you should use the language codes specified by the MediaWiki software when creating language-specific content (see [http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/languages/Names.php Names.php] for the full and up-to-date list).<br />
<br />
Please also bear the following in mind:<br />
* If the language code is not found in Names.php then we should not host help pages in that language. <br />
* If you want to add a language that is not present, first get it added to the software (by making a request at [[Bugzilla]]) and only add pages here once the changes have been accepted.<br />
* If MediaWiki uses the 'incorrect' code for a language then you should also (for consistency) use that incorrect code here. If you think a code is incorrect you should discuss it on [[Bugzilla]], and if this results in it being changed we will move the pages to match.<br />
* Note that some language codes in Names.php are now deprecated (e.g. <tt>zh-yue</tt> has been replaced with <tt>yue</tt>). In these cases only the most recent code should be used.<br />
