Translating talk:How to start

Why is point three If I wanted to change preference language I would have done so before I created a user page etc. By "working on" I would (at this project) understand the language(s) I would translate to (or from), but I really can't see what this has to do with "my prefences".

 * set your user interface to the language you will be working on
 * You'd be surprised how many people we have that try to edit 'their' language in the standard English language UI. Hence it is part of the steps that lead to succesfully localising. The UI of Special:Translate automagically uses your UI language to sort out which language you will be working on... Cheers! Siebrand 19:15, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Copy that. Should have known there was some automagic involved. Finnrind 22:23, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

How terrible. Hardwiring the two together. I can work 1000 time better in the other language but you force me to use the first. I can't. Don't assume everybody is like yourselves. See also /en. Jidanni 03:03, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
