Recommended process for translating MediaWiki

Hi Kizito. I see you're taking a fairly, as leat from my perspective, random approach at making translations at the moment. Please find below some recommended steps. I hope they are of help. If you don't like them, please feel free to make your contributions in whichever way you like; each contribution is valuable to us.

• first translate the most often used messages
• complete the core messages
• check if you should translate any optional messages
• do a consistency check (terminology, formal/informal) on your localisation
• translate special page names, magic words and namespaces on Special:AdvancedTranslate
• translate the extension messages used in Wikimedia wikis
• translate the remaining extension messages
• do a consistency check (terminology, formal/informal) on your localisation between core messages and extension messages
• start maintaining your language's localisation on a regular basis. At least once per month is recommended.

Hope this helps. :)
