Translation of the wiki pages into other languages than English makes a real contribution to the Squad community. It will make it easier for non-English speakers to get into the game and as a result improves the gameplay quality and metagame for all players. We are looking for editors possessing the required language skills and who feel inclined doing this kind of task.
There are two current ways to translate the information on the Squad Wiki.
- Create a new page on the Squad Wiki with a "/languagecode" added to the end of the page.
- Create/edit on a translated wiki.
You will find two example pages on our wiki that have applied the first method: here is the English System requirements page and here is the German translation page of it. Once a specific language has enough pages translated, it is possible for them to decide to create their own wiki.
To create their own wiki there must be a set of translators willing to admin and maintain it. Once a group of translators wish to create and maintain their own wiki they can follow these steps:
- Create a wiki utilizing the Start a new community guide from Fandom.
- Develop the wiki and create the bare-bones of the wiki.
- Reach out to the English Squad Wiki Editorial (or other language wikis) to help create an Interlanguage Link (ILL).
- Update both wikis with the ILLs.
If you are interested in doing translations, put down your name in the list below and go right ahead.
Discord[]
We welcome any translators to use our discord. We have individual channels dedicated to each language and have and options within the discord to join each channel. Translators may use their own language within their categories only.
Any translations that have an ILL with the Squad Wiki are welcome to utilize our Wiki Discord to host their community on. The level at which each community is integrated within the discord is on a case by case basis. We will always provide a category (or multiple) for members to create their own channels according to how their community needs. Each community may have their own set of rules, but they must always follow the English set of rules. For more info on utilizing the Wiki Discord, please reach out to an admin.
