Translate Wikipedia articles from one language to another to help more people learn.

Step 1: Find a Wikipedia article to translate

[edit]

To begin translation simple click HERE. You will need to have a Wikipedia account which is used to log into the tool in the right upper corner. Than enter the two letter language code for the language you wish to translate into.

The articles that the tool presents all have leads that are of good quality. We only recommend translation of the lead at this point in time.
