라과디아 커뮤니티 칼리지 번역 대회 2019는 4월 4일과 4월 5일 뉴욕시 퀸즈에 있는 라과디아 커뮤니티 칼리지에서 개최됩니다.

라과디아 커뮤니티 칼리지는 두 번째 연례 위키백과 번역 대회를 주최합니다! 이 행사에서 일반 대중은 누구나 라과디아에 초대되어 참석자가 이해하는 모든 언어로 위키백과 문서를 번역하는 학생, 교수 및 CUNY 교수진과 함께 합니다. 이 행사의 주제는 공중 보건과 뉴욕시의 역사입니다.

뉴욕시는 이민자 인구가 많고 다양한 언어를 구사하는 다양한 사람들이 있습니다. 뉴욕 시의 모든 학교 중에서 라과디아는 이민자 학생 비율이 가장 높고 영어 이외의 언어를 모국어로 사용하는 학생 비율이 가장 높으며 언어 다양성을 가장 많이 나타냅니다. 위키백과 번역 행사인 "위키백과 번역 대회"를 선보일 수 있다는 것이 라과디아의 강점입니다.

주제에 대한 전문 지식이나 위키백과 편집 경험이 필요하지 않은 모든 사람을 초대합니다. 노트북과 전원 코드를 가져오새요. 연구 자료, WiFi 및 제안된 주제 목록을 제공합니다. 더 많은 아이디어는 2018년 번역 대회 행사 페이지를 확인하세요. 위키백과 계정에 로그인한 후 대시보드에 등록하세요.

Advanced support

The best way to get started at this event is to talk in person with one of the trainers at the event. As advanced preparation, anyone might select a Wikipedia article which interests them and which they might like to translate at the event. The best way to learn Wikipedia's method for translation is to come to the event, listen to the presentation, then ask for assistance at your computer if you need it.

If you want to read technical documentation on your own then click "show" to the right and read the following guides.

How to find the list of articles in which a Wikipedia article already exists

Suppose that one has a Wikipedia article in one language, and wants to see the other languages in which that Wikipedia article exists. Here is the process:

Go to any Wikipedia article in any language
In almost all cases, if the article exists in another language, the name of that language will be on the left side of the screen
1. Click the name of the language to see the translation of the article in that language
2. Ask for assistance if you go further than this, because a person with experience will be able to quickly confirm what any new user finds
On the left side of the screen there is a menu. Look for "Wikidata item" or a translation of that phrase
1. If there is no statement "Wikidata item", then go to Wikidata and search for the article's name in any language
2. If there is still no result, that article has not been translated. Start a translation!
3. After publishing a translation create a Wikidata item for the concept. List the original article there and your translation so that they will be interconnected. Ask for assistance with this if Wikidata looks confusing.
If you find a Wikidata item for a concept, then the Wikidata item will list all language Wikipedia articles covering that concept.
Use the Wikidata item to get the link to other languages for that item

How to find articles that need translation

These are the most common methods:

1. Use Wikipedia Gap Finder (you can customize your search): http://recommend.wmflabs.org/#Recommend

2. Using the English Wikipedia, find an article that interests you. Then, look to the left of the page, in the gray bar beneath the Wikipedia globe. At the tail end of that list of links, you'll see "Languages," and links to all of the languages that also have that article. Languages are spelled in that language's alphabet or phonemes. For example, you won't see "Japanese" or "French," you'll see "日本語" and "Français".

Is the language you're studying listed? If so, click the language to see the same article in that language. You can compare the two articles to get a sense of what one has that the other does not. If not, that means there's no corresponding article in that language.

3. Head to the Wikipedia in the language you are studying. In the search bar, type: WP:GA (this will also work with Wikipedias using non-Roman alphabets). You'll be taken to a list of "Good Articles" on that language's Wikipedia, the best articles it has to offer. (You may need to find the page that lists them, if it's separate). Find a Good Article on your target language's Wikipedia. Check the bar on the side to see if there is a corresponding article in English. If there isn't, great! You can translate the article into English, and contribute it to the English Wikipedia.

Sometimes, the article exists, but is very short. That's OK, too. However, if both languages have well-developed pages on the topic, you will want to find another article. It can be very challenging to add content to an already-developed article.

Try the tool

You can access the tool from Special:ContentTranslation from Wikipedia in any language. Accessing it for the first time will also enable the tool for that wiki.

Content translation is available as a beta feature in all Wikipedias for logged-in users. Once it is enabled, you will see additional entry points to easily start a translation from your "contributions" page or from the list of languages of Wikipedia articles when they are missing in your language.
