You keep editing Memory Alpha:Introduction and translating it to another language. Is there a valid reason for such? If so, what is it, and why do you continue to alter the text? -- Sulfur 11:26, 1 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, I'm sorry :-( I just thought that I might translate it into my native language. I saw that here is a possibility to make a contribution in your own language too, for example in german, french, russian, polish and so on. Maybe I misunderstood something because the menu is somewhat in estonian and I thought than nobody hasn't got to translating the text yet. Artzz 15:53, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

You're always welcome to translate pages into a new language... just make a copy of the page to a sub-page under your user page, and translate the copy, not the original. If you get enough translated, and can round up some help, you've got a good start on a new language version of MA. That's more or less how the other versions started out. For more information on internationalization, including lists of speakers of various languages, see Memory Alpha:Babel. I'd suggest starting by creating a user page and adding a Babel language sidebar to list the languages you speak. -- Renegade54 18:09, 1 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the tip :-) Artzz 10:01, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

You're welcome. :) I added the Estonian userbox templates for you, btw. -- Renegade54 17:55, 2 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I saw. Thank you! I was just figuring out how to do that. I've got a lot to learn how the things are done here, but I'm eager to learn how too. Artzz 18:01, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
