Mentor Linguist Scribe Translation Project
Project: Mentor Linguist Scribe Translation Project
Second Life is an international platform and volunteers need to have clear, translated information in all languages! This project will create sub-pages in other languages for the main English pages. The language template used will create automatic language links at the top of the pages, such as the one on this project page. Language Template Information
Mentor Linguists/Scribes can participate in this project by choosing a wiki page from the list below and translating it into the language(s) they speak fluently. This suggestion list will be updated periodically with new pages.
Second Life Mentor Linguists who are not familiar with wiki, if needed please contact a Scribe whose name is listed on this page, for assistance in adding the newly translated page to wiki.
Second Life Mentor Scribes please feel free to help do any translations and also list your name here if you are willing to assist Linguists using the wiki for this project.
Scribes Offering Wiki Assistance:
SubPage Help
- If you have listed your name as someone willing to help create a subpage and receive a request: Please mark the language line of that page after it is set up with Empty subpage ready for "requesters name" and notify the requester.
- If you are translating a page and need assistance to make the subpage: Please contact someone from the above list of names. Let them know what page and what language.

Step by Step Procedure to Create a Translation Page

- Example: English: Nov 21 2007, Lexie Linden, In Progress.
- Click Show Preview. If you think it looks good, click Save Page.
- Click the link of the page you have chosen to translate. Click the edit tab on that page. Type these 14 characters just as you see them: {{Multi-lang}} on the top line and add a blank line below it if it is not already on the page.
- Now copy everything on the edit page except the bottom of the page tags. Tags will have a set of brackets around words. Click on
Save Page.
- In the Search box on the left side of the wiki page, type the exact name of the page you have chosen and add a /your language code. This is how you create the language subpage. Example: Tao of Volunteers/fr then Press Go.
