] Date Posted: 16:30:12 11/16/04 Tue In reply to: Roberdin 's message, "Wikipage" on 17:51:50 11/12/04 Fri You know, someone created a French-language page on Wikipedia about the FCS. Here's the link: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Commonwealth_Society Is there any way to link it on the English site, where they put the list of languages up on the side? It's possible for other entries, you see, so it might be good to do it for this one. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |

Date Posted: 17:37:15 11/16/04 Tue Any thoughts on having other native languages of the Commonwealth? Maori, Welsh, Gaelic, an important Aboriginal dialect? I'm afraid I only have 3 words of Gaelic, two of Welsh and one of Maori, so can't do much translation myself... but perhaps, if anyone else can, it might be a good idea. Shows that we're inclusive.

Date Posted: 17:54:37 11/16/04 Tue Yolngu would be an option for the Top End of the Northern Territory, and Pitjintjatjara or Warlpiri for the Centre, but the parts of the country where Aboriginal languages are going strong are also the parts where there is little internet access. These languages also barely exist in written form, and, of course, I don't speak any of them. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 18:54:31 11/16/04 Tue I think some of the languages you mention are probably not catered for by wiki. That doesn't stop us making our own pages with them. Also: shouldn't the french page be called something in french? not 'federal commonwealth society' i suggest copy everyting in french to a new page: la_societe_du_commonwealth_federale and make the current french page and other similar name automatically redirect to it.

Date Posted: 21:11:07 11/16/04 Tue I haven't even heard of some of those languages, and quite a few of them are dead ones: Latin, Aramaic, Anglo-Saxon... There also seem to be 47 articles in Klingon, I suspect for American math students. And what on Earth might "Interlingua" be? [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 21:51:23 11/16/04 Tue I know there is a page for SCF Canada on your site. What I'm saying is do a copy of everything that is on the english wiki page at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Commonwealth_Society and translate it all into french and put it in the french language section of wiki. Someone has already done so but used an english address so I suggested that we copy it to be under a title in french in the french section. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 22:25:19 11/16/04 Tue I know what the french section is. Someone (I don't know who) started a page at the link below. They had copied one of the versions from the English page and translated it. http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Commonwealth_Society Then I created the page below: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Societe_Du_Commonwealth_Federale Then I created the page below; copying all the stuff from the first page to this latest one. I then set the first two pages to automatically redirect anyone who uses the first two URLs to the page below which has the accents used by Jim on his website. http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Société_Du_Commonwealth_Fédérale now we need keep pace with significant changes to the English version (e.g. the new pictures).
