Project:About/fo

Translatewiki.net is a staðsetingarplatformur fyri týðingarfelagsskapir, málfelagsskapir og ókeypis og opnar verkætlanir. Tað byrjaði við staðseting fyri MediaWiki. Seinni komu nakrar verkætlanir afturat, eitt nú MediaWiki víðkanir, FreeCol og aðrar ókeypis og opnar verkætlanir. Sí fulla listan yvir stuðlaðar verkætlanir.

Translatewiki.net er ikki partur av Wikimedia Foundation verkætlanunum, heldur ikki av nøkrum grunni ella open source verkætlanum. Tað eru Nike og Siebrand, sum báðir eru mennarar og hava sera drúgvar royndir við i18n og L10n, umframt onnur starvsfólk, ið reka Translatewiki.net. Týðarafunksjónin verður rikin av MediaWiki víðkanini Translate. Henda wikiin inniheldur altíð kotur á royndarstøði, og kann av og á vera óvirkin. Vinarliga gev tol, trupulleikarnir verða sum oftast loystir skjótt. Trupulleikar kunnu fráboðast á hjálparsíðuni.

 * Teir flestu luttakararnar kenna longu til nýtsluna av wiki-ritbúnaðinum (wiki-software). Um tú ert nýggj/ur innan wiki-ritbúnað, so kanst tú læra tað mest grundleggjandi og fáa hjálp til hvussu ein rættar á MediaWiki.org.
 * Finn út av, hvussu týðarar arbeiða á hesi vegleiðingini í týðing.
 * Tøknilig kunning um ritbúnaðin (software), ið translatewiki.net nýtir í løtuni.
 * Translatewiki.net produces statistics to track progress in translating, by language and by project. Explore the statistics and other information on the general statistics page.

Aktivera tína ritbúaðaverkætlan á translatewiki.net um tað ikki longu er gjørt.
 * Tað besta týðaratólið sum er tøkt á netinum. Allar staðsetingar dagføringar fara fram á einum løttum markamóti, og tað eru fólk rundan um sum kunnu hjálpa týðarum. Meðan ein týðir, so koma uppskot so ein betri kann skilja meiningina og nýtsluna, eins og uppskot koma frá týðingarminninum/maskinu-týðaratænastum.
 * Ongir serstakir førleikar krevjast, øll kunnu luttaka. Ein og hvør ið kann kunnu luttaka á einum máli (sí niðanfyri) fær loyvi til at hjálpa til við týðingini til tað málið.
 * Keeping track of changes is easy. Untranslated messages are not the only easily found: whenever the source text changes, the affected translations are tagged for easy identification. Translators do not have to spend time digging what needs doing.

Yvirlit yvir arbeiðsháttin á translatewiki.net

 * On translatewiki.net translators translate the interface of software for products where the English text strings have been isolated from the code and have been organized into individual "messages".
 * When a new project joins, the English source messages are imported. Further new English messages are imported from time to time.
 * Translations can be made for each message in a separate subpage of the English original for each language, /xxx for language code xxx.
 * Sub-pages named /qqq are used for message documentation. The documentation is written manually and is usually of better quality where good communication exists with the original software developer team. If source code comments are part of a software project, these are also displayed in the translation interface.
 * Translators make suggestions to improve or correct an original English message, or adapt it to support localisation. If agreed, these are either implemented by translatewiki.net members who are also developers on the relevant project, or reported to the project developers.
 * Completed translations for each language are "committed" to the projects by translatewiki.net staff, as soon as the total number of translations for a project in that language has passed the threshold agreed for that project. For frequency of committing and thresholds see the project pages.
 * The software release of translations which have been committed to a project is controlled and executed by the project administrators and is out of the hands of translatewiki.net.
 * Týðarar sum arbeiða við MediaWiki týða eisini serlig síðunøvn, magisk orð og navnaøkir við at nýta síðuna Víðkað MediaWiki týðing.
 * When a new language is set up at translatewiki.net, items localised at the start include the script and its direction and a fallback language; other localised items can include date/time format, number format, and PLURAL, GRAMMAR and GENDER functions. Convergence with CLDR localisation data is being considered. At present the only data taken directly from CLDR to translatewiki.net, and on to MediaWiki, are localised language names.

Translatewiki.net started during 2006 as a test wiki, developed by Nike, in collaboration with Gangleri, as an internationalisation tool for the localisation of the MediaWiki software. It started under the name Betawiki, which became translatewiki.net at the beginning of 2009, following the site being moved to virtual server hosting under its own domain name, on 9th November 2007. By October 2007 translatewiki.net was contributing to localisation in around 70 languages, which by June 2010 had grown to 329 languages. How the number of languages has grown is visible in the table of translation milestones passed for MediaWiki. By January 2010 an upgrade was needed to the server capacity, to cope with the increase in activity. Netcup has generously hosted translatewiki.net since November 2007.

Other free and open source projects have gradually been added to translatewiki.net, starting with FreeCol in August 2007. By June 2010 the number of projects supported has grown to 16.

Contributors to translatewiki.net are all volunteers, except for one staff member who receives funding for part of his time (see funding below). Developers, administrators and translators were recruited initially from MediaWiki projects, especially Wikimedia. Most of our contributors still arrive here via MediaWiki, but with more projects arriving all the time, MediaWiki is no longer the only source of contributors. By June 2010, the number of registered translators is 1,860.

In collaboration with Stichting Open Progress and FUDforum, translatewiki.net has arranged several translation rallies with bounties for translators available, to improve the localisation of MediaWiki and FUDforum.
 * In 2008 the Dutch NGO Hivos provided funding via Stichting Open Progress. The grant was to be used to provide bounties for translations in a list of 70 to 80 languages spoken in Africa, Asia, and Latin America that had a sizable number of speakers, but insufficient support in MediaWiki.
 * At the end of 2008 an end of year translation rally open to all translators was held.
 * During August 2009 another translation rally was organized, funded by Wikimedia Nederland, the Dutch Wikimedia chapter.
 * Wikimedia Nederland stuðlaði eisini týðara-kappingina, sum varð síðst í 2009.

The aims of translatewiki.net are described on the Introduction. Technological aids to translators are described on the Technology page. These aids are continually being expanded and improved in order to make the translation work as efficient as possible. Current site needs and development are described on Issues and features.

Funding

 * Translatewiki.net is kindly hosted by Netcup – webspace and vServer, at their expense since November 2007, with upgrades in February 2008, January 2010, October 2013, and July 2015.
 * Stichting Open Progress and others have from time to time organized funding for translation rallies to improve the localisation of MediaWiki and others, as explained above.
 * Since October 2009 the Wikimedia Foundation have contracted Siebrand to work about one day a week on translatewiki.net.

Bólkar
All contributors are organized into various groups, each group having its own privileges. In common with other wikis, people who register on the wiki are called Users. Users are automatically confirmed 4 days after registering, allowing them to send e-mails to other users. Administrators have more privileges, mainly concerned with protecting the site from vandalism. Bureaucrats have some more privileges, including granting and removing normal user rights, but are granted bureaucrat status by members of the Staff group. Bots are user accounts which can perform tasks automatically. The Import right, allowing a user to import pages from other wikis, is rarely used here.

In addition to these usual groups, translatewiki.net also has user groups special to its purpose. The Translators can edit in protected namespaces, using the translate interface. Some translators can work offline on their translations. The Staff group are the overall managers of this site. They import the messages to be translated and commit completed translations to the projects which use translatewiki.net. They can amend the English source messages directly on some projects, including MediaWiki. They manage all aspects of the software used here.

The rights attached to each user group are listed on the page User Group Rights. Lists of the members of each group can be viewed on the page User list.
