[Mediawiki-l] Multiple languages

[Sylvain Machefert]

Hello,

if it's only on the main page, you can write, in [[Main Page]] :

[[Main Page in Afrikaans]]

your english main page text, with links to [[one english page]] and
[[another one]].


and in the page Main Page in Afrikaans, you write your text in afrikaans
with links to afrikaans pages.


If on EVERY page you want a link to the page in the other language
you can use this extension :
http://www.art122-5.net/index.php/MediaWiki_multi-Language_management_with_the_extension_MultiLanguageManager

it adds a tab on top of your page where you define what is the translated
page name.
With this you can manage several languages (on one of my wiki, I have 3).


*BUT* these solutions don't change the "interface" words, like "my
preferences", "upload file", "recent changes"...
