Srikanth,

For Mobile Wiki, you need to translate messages listed on this page:
http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special%3ATranslate&task=view&group=out-wikimediamobile&language=hi&limit=250

But I found that User Vsrawat
<http://translatewiki.net/wiki/User:Vsrawat>from Hindi Wikipedia has
already started translating it.


It is better to consult the veteran Marathi/Hindi wikipedians
Mahitgar<http://translatewiki.net/wiki/User:Mahitgar>
/Kaustub <http://translatewiki.net/wiki/User:Kaustubh> before translating
messgaes to Hindi. They are translating the system messages (to
Hindi/Marathi) through translate wiki for more than 2 years now.

Always consult the local language wiki community regarding localization of
system messages.

Shiju
