<div>Hi, Casey.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>This is my first time to work on Wikimedia, and I have a question for you...</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Am I the only&nbsp;one who is working on translating this message into Japanese, or are there a group of volunteers who are translating this message into the same language at that same time? </div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Does&nbsp;this make sense? &nbsp;I am a bit confused with what I am supposed to do. </div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Thank you!<br>Ikuko<br>&nbsp;</div></blockquote><div><br>Hey Ikuko! <br></div></div><br>Short answer: it can be either.&nbsp; Normally, one person looks at the page and translates it (or as much as they can).&nbsp; Then we find some other Japanese speakers to copyedit the translation.&nbsp; However, if you have another user who also speaks Japanese, you guys can work on translating it together.<br>
<br>Basically, you can start now (by clicking the &quot;missing&quot; link next to &quot;ja&quot;) and more people might come along to help you later. :-)&nbsp; Does that make sense?<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Casey Brown<br>Cbrown1023<br>
