Hi,
we would appreciate some volunteer help, if available, in translating the documentation for the new PDF export / book creation feature that we've rolled out in the German Wikipedia, in all Wikibooks languages, and in some Wikisources. Frank Schulenburg developed some documentation for us in German, but it would be great to have a good baseline translation.
The German documentation is here: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilfe:Buchfunktion
Please also see the "for experts" link. The screenshots would need to be localized. The version run on http://en.labs.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page can be hacked as needed to make it look as it should.
Let me know if you want to help and I can provide further information.
Thanks, Erik
ill make a start on it tomorrow unless someone else has already done it by then.
regards
mark

I have translated the basic landing page (DE: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilfe:Buchfunktion to EN: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Markie/PPTrans) and also the experts page (DE: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilfe:Buchfunktion/f%C3%BCr_Experten to EN: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Markie/PPTrans/Expert). these will both need proofreading and checking please. the screen shots have also not yet been done and some of the categories used in the original document may need to be changed in the translation, as their translations may not match that used by the system.
if the FAQ page ( http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilfe:Buchfunktion/Fragen_und_Antworten) needs to be translated then this will take longer to do if it is needed.
thanks in advance, and apologies for any mistakes :p

it was cc-ed to the translators list with the aim of getting people to check/proofread what had already been done, this is why you received the message as well.

Markie, a belated big _thank you_ for helping with this. :-)
I note that the pages have now been moved here:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Book_tool/Help/Books http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Book_tool/Help/Books/for_experts http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Book_tool/Help/Books/Frequently_Asked_Questio...
Any help with localizing the screenshots from http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilfe:Buchfunktion
is still appreciated!
All the best, Erik
