Welcome!
Welcome! Before you get started I must instruct you in the way that this wiki works. First, please read either (or both) of the following:
- The English wiki Welcome tutorial - much more beginner-friendly, gets you started with wikitext syntax, has stuff specifically related to the Scratch Wikis. (Recommended if you can read this sentence without Google Translate)
- MediaWiki help pages - translated into many languages, probably including yours, and describes how wikis work in general. (Recommended if you need something in your own language)
Next, heed the following instructions:
Your focus for now will be translating pages from English to Hindi. You should not worry about creating any pages specific to the Hindi wiki yet; instead, focus on translating.
When creating a page to be translated, you must follow the steps below. Let's say you want to translate the page Eng:Blocks. According to Google Translate, "blocks" in Hindi is "ब्लाकों".
- Create the page Hin:ब्लाकों.
- The contents of the page must be copied from the Eng: page.
- Make sure that the page has
{{:Eng:Blocks/translate}}
at the top.
- Edit the page Eng:Blocks/translate
- If there is already a line that looks like
|Hin=
, change it to|Hin=ब्लाकों
- If not, add the line
|Hin=ब्लाकों
just before the line that looks like}}
- If there is already a line that looks like
- Start translating any English text into Hindi.
- When linking to other pages, always link with
Hin:
before the page name - When using translated templates, always transclude with
Hin/
before the template name - When categorizing pages, always categorize with
Hin/
before the category name
- When linking to other pages, always link with
While you are doing all this, start looking on Scratch for more people to help you - editing a wiki is not a one-man job.
Good luck editing!
