[[User:RobLa]], what are the options for translating various articles into other languages, so that more readers can access them? I'm somewhat familiar with Spanish, and would be interested in translating several articles if the interface is simple enough.

:The typical way to do this on a wiki of this size is to append the ISO language code (see https://wiki.secondlife.com for an example). However, I don't think that the content and structure of this wiki is yet mature enough to do a competent job with translation. I could be wrong though. Have you made any edits to the articles on [https://es.wikipedia.org Spanish Wikipedia] yet? I would feel more comfortable branching out into Spanish if we had the help of a seasoned editor from Spanish Wikipedia (and you could become that editor, even if you aren't a seasoned editor ''yet''). -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 05:08, 30 March 2020 (UTC) |

:: I can start building experience in doing work on Condorcet articles on Spanish Wikipedia and then report back after some time, sure. Also, I've uploaded several images here that have English text, and can easily change them to other languages if desired, but what would you suggest as the best way to link the various images together? Can an image have different language-versions, or should the modified image be uploaded under a separate title?
