Hi
Everybody can contribute to the wiki. We don't have any special
So how is the consistency kept then? I don't wont to drive the discussion to the Wiki solely, but this is obvious question to emerge...
Wiki maintainers can subscribe special pages in the English wiki they want to translate to their own language. So they receive update notifications that they have to update their own page.
Look at https://languages.opensuse.org/Help:Translation#Portals The list seems to be outdated. Obviously it is. Yes, I can edit it, but I don't know how this process (creation and maintenance of multilingual oS Wiki) is organized and the page then seems to be abandoned. I.e. if I'd edit it, it might be useless as nobody could care, as seen by non-existing maintenance of the Wiki page...
That isn't outdated, because you can see only examples there. We have so many Portals that you can't list all there. If you want to have changes there, that would be a topic for the Wiki mailing list. Let's discuss it there not here.
Yes. As one-time task it can work. But as far as I know, there are no traces of changes regarding state of translations. If something is changed in the English original, how to easily see which corresponding translated section needs to be updated in other languages?
Every wiki page has a change log. You can watch it with clicking above on History. Additional to that you can receive change mails, if you subscribe the wiki page after adding anything to the English wiki. You'll receive more support on the wiki mailinglist...
It is very difficult. Wiki needs special mode for translators, where we can see the page we translated with the modified sections in red, say, since the last time we translated it. Not a list (log) of all changes. The result is that wiki translations are done once, then left alone for years. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
