Team Fortress Wiki is capable of handling multilingual content and providing the reader a user interface in their preferred language. Multilingual editors are encouraged to translate and maintain articles in as many different languages as possible to reach the whole TF2 global community. Maintaining up to date translated articles is very important and it should be noted that it is preferential to have an up to date English article, rather than an out of date translated one.

Как перевести страницу

Следуйте инструкциям приступить к переводу статьи.

  1. Убедитесь, что ваш язык поддерживается (см. Список поддерживаемых языков ниже). Мы поддерживаем все языки, которые имеют официальный в игре переводов.
  2. Перейти к английской версии страницы статьи и нажмите кнопку "Изменить эту страницу". Выберите все, что в окне и скопируйте его. Теперь перейдите к вашему новое название статьи и вставить его дюйма
    французский вариант статьи "Шляпы" будет Template:XT, а не {{XT | вводные}!}, {{XT | Шляпы / вводные}!} или Template:! XT
  3. Добавьте шаблон Template:TL в начало страницы. Это сохраняет все незавершенные статьи на вашем языке вместе.
    Вам не нужно добавить Template:TLX (например), только Template:TL или Template:TL не требуется.
  4. Используйте {{код | 1 = {{DisplayTitle: abcxyz}} </ Nowiki>}}, чтобы показать перевод названия. # Например: {{код | <nowiki> {{DisplayTitle: Flammenwerfer}} </ Nowiki>}}''бы показать''название "Flammenwerfer" при сохранении''''реальный заголовок статьи, как "огнемет / де ". #: дисплей название может также быть установлен инфокиоск (см. ниже). # Изменение категории в нижней части страницы. # Например: {{код | [[Категория: Списки]]}} {{становится код | [[Категория: Списки / FR ]]}}. Сделайте это для всех категорий в нижней части страницы. # Теперь Вы можете перевести остальные статьи. Обратите внимание, что текст хранится в других статьях (так называемые "шаблоны"). Чтобы перевести эти вам придется редактировать их по отдельности.~~~~ == Multilingual guidelines == * English is the main reference language, and all root pages should be named and written in English. * Other languages should be placed in an appropriately named sub-page of the English version. * Language subpages should use the appropriate ISO 639 code (as listed [[#List of supported languages|below]]) * 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. * The use of {{tl|Languages}} at the bottom of articles is now discouraged, as language links appear in the sidebar. * While in the process of translating articles, using {{tlx|Trans}} is encouraged to display to other editors that the article is a work in progress. * Please do ''not'' sign articles using the 4 tildes ("{{code|~~~~}}"). The list of people who contributed to the article is always available in the history (click the tab at the top of the page), so it is not necessary to sign. === Google Translate === Please '''do not''' use Google Translate or any other automatic or computer-based language translation service. Machine-translated pages are nowhere near the standard of pages that have been translated by a native speaker, and are unacceptable. Any user who has been found to repeatedly use any translator service for article pages or [[Help:Translation switching|translation switching]] strings will be '''blocked''' from editing any further. === On-wiki communication === * '''Talk pages''' ** It is '''vital''' that all discussion based on specific users and articles is in English. This is especially important when discussing the quality or accuracy of any article or translator. * '''Edit summaries''' ** All edit summaries should be written in English where practical. These requirements allow staff and fellow editors to keep up to date with every aspect of translation. == Articles == {{anchor|DISPLAYTITLE|displaytitle|display}} * '''Displaying a different title''' ** Displaying a title in a different language is possible with the use of the magic word {{code|{{DISPLAYTITLE:}}}}. ** For example, using {{code|{{DISPLAYTITLE:Example}}}} will display the article name as ''Example''. * '''Infoboxes''' ** To display a new name in an infobox, add a new line like this: **:<code>{{Item infobox</code> **:<code style="color:#006F00">| name = ''Name goes here''</code> **:<code>| image = ... </code> ** The infobox template for weapons and hats needs a few lines to stay in English for it to work properly. If a line is listed below, please do not translate it: **:<code>| type = ...</code> **:<code>| game = ...</code> **:<code>| slot = ...</code> **:<code>| trade, gift, craft, paint or rename = ...</code> **:<code>| quality = ...</code> **:See [[Template:Item infobox]] for further help. * '''Links''' ** You can link to translated articles and display different text for the links like this: *** {{code|1=[[Weapons/fr|Armes]]}} will create [[Weapons/fr|Armes]]. ** If using external links that are in English, you should also use the template {{tl|lang icon}} directly after the link to indicate the language of the external link. *** {{code|[http://www.google.com/ Google]}} on [[Soldier/fr]] should look like <code><nowiki>[http://www.google.com/ Google] {{lang icon|en}}, which will generate:
    • Google (English)
    • {{Main}} and {{See also}} – When using these templates you can display a different title using the parameter l1 (lowercase L1):
    {{Main|Hats/fr|l1=Chapeaux}} generates
    Main article: Chapeaux
    {{Main|Hats/fr|l1=Chapeaux|Miscellaneous items/fr|l2=Objets divers}} generates
    Main articles: Chapeaux and Objets divers
    Note: To change the "Main article:" text, see the individual template pages for {{main}} and {{see also}} as they use translation switching.
  • Categories
    • Language pages should be kept in separate categories.
    • For example on Wrench/fr, if you find at the bottom of the page, change it to .

Templates

The majority of templates should use translation switching, with the exception of some navigational boxes. Previously it was necessary to create a localized version of a template, e.g. Template:Hat infobox/ru. Now localized text is stored in one template, where text for all languages is stored. Please see Help:Translation switching for further information.

List of supported languages

Team Fortress Wiki supports language translation of articles into 21 languages, the majority of which have localization files for TF2. There are no plans to add support for any further languages at this time.

The reasoning for this is that the workload for translators who do not have support from the Steam Translation Server (in the form of word lists, nouns, etc, and proper discussion channels) is significantly higher. The amount of active translators is also less, meaning pages can quickly become out of date. Support for the translation of articles into a specific language will now only be considered if there are localization files present in the game.

The languages highlighted in the table below are exceptions to the rule. Czech and Brazilian Portuguese are being actively translated on STS and may have localization files appear in the game soon, and support for Arabic has been extended due to the amount of existing Arabic content.
