Hi,
I just switched from AppleWorks to NeoOffice and I'm already a great fan. That's why I'd like to help. Since I'm not a programmer, I'd like to write the German translation for the NeoWiki. Where do I start?

Here 
If you have any questions, just post; it should be a fairly comprehensive guide, but I think it hasn't been updated to reflect that the Main Pages are now template-driven instead of a single page....
Edit: I've now updated the above-linked Guide to include info about the templatized Main Page, our "new" system for naming translated templates (the one val1984 used makes more sense), and the deprecated system which will remain in use for some templates until we have time to update every page using those templates 
We've been wanting a German translation of the wiki for some time, but no one's ever followed through once contacting us....

Yessica has been busy lately, and I'm happy to say we now have a German translation of the wiki (at least the initial parts of it)!
Danke!

Danke schön! This sort of work is very important to the usability of Neooffice, even if it does not make the front page (literally, other than a tiny link).

| as we get more languages we should get the wiki links for appropriate languages set up on the planamesa site. (and if you submit to any specific language sites, then use those too...) |

Yessica, well done! Something I should have got involved in myself but you did it!
Thanks for that,

Done. I just changed the links in the German and French pages at www.planamesa.com/neojava to point to the German and French NeoWiki pages.

Aye, natürlich, although a bit out of practice. I have no strong view on this. I am quite happy to respond in German if anybody posts in German in one of the forums. (I should say that I am not a programming person but predominantly a word processing user) However, if the general consensus should be to continue with the status quo (i.e. no UG) it might be appropriate to have a message up front in German/other languages that postings in these languages will receive attention. |

|
The German wiki was translated more recently than the French wiki, so it's in fairly good shape.
However, in preparation for the public release of Aqua Beta, it would be very nice if the following pages were updated or translated:
1) http://neowiki.sixthcrusade.com/index.php/De:NeoOffice (this should probably only need a few changes, perhaps even only the ones I made today)
2) A German translation of http://neowiki.sixthcrusade.com/index.php/NeoOffice_Feature_Comparison (the old one was from Neo 1.2; I earlier renamed it to indicate that, but today I pointed the link to the English page)
3) http://neowiki.sixthcrusade.com/index.php/De:NeoOffice_et_Aqua (needs an update; in pretty good shape but some changes still missing)
4) It would be great to get http://neowiki.sixthcrusade.com/index.php/De:NeoOffice_Support completely translated (a few of those FAQ answers are not translated yet )
There are a few other pages out there which are out-of-date, but these are the big ones we should try to have "fixed"....
I wish I could help more with the actual work myself, but my German is really non-existant
Danke!
Smokey

Danke! Your account has been created and the wiki claims your temporary password has been emailed
