Hi,
If you are planning to introduce wiki editing to your students by translating articles, I suggest you to try out the content translation tool. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_translation.
It provides an easy interface for translations. The users need not bother about the wiki text formatting, rather can concentrate on the content and the language.
Regards
Kavya Manohar

Hello,
I am a teaching assistant in ONLINE_A, e-learning English course at Masaryk University, Czech Republic. This course is structured around students completing various English practice tasks and in that way gaining points towards credit. I came up with the idea to make writing a Wikipedia article one of those tasks. The course is relatively large, but since this is going to be one of the more difficult tasks available and only the more advanced students can actually do it, I assume there would be only about 6 to 12 students every semester doing this task. I would not be able to coach more of them anyways. The students are unlikely to have previous editor experience on WIkipedia. To accommodate for that, I plan to have them translate an article from Czech to English Wikipedia and instruct them to refer to an existing similar article on English Wikipedia to get a feel for what they need to create.
Example: Translate https://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michal_Tu%C4%8Dn%C3%BD as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michal_Tu%C4%8Dn%C3%BD referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenny_Rogers as a source of inspiration.
I am looking for an existing Wikimedia Education initiative under which this initiative of my could be put into practice. I found "Studenti píší Wikipedii" at https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/Countries/Czech_Republic. Is it the correct bunch of people to turn to, given that I target WIkipedia in English, not the Czech one?
