Assessing content is about checking what content needs to be translated, and marking it as Do or Don't on the progress pages.

  • Not all articles need to be translated.
    • Simple articles (4 paragraph introductions to the topic) should not be translated if the target article is featured or good article class.
This is because we don't want to waste translators time, and also because we do not wish to replace already high quality content.
If you believe the translation may be useful anyway, and there are integrators who will use it, we will put the article up for translation anyway.

Example of assessing content
How to

(If you feel worried about the colors, leave them–someone will come along and fix them)

  • Press the edit button next to the language group where your language is (pressing the button at the top of the page is very slow)
  • Add your comment behind the hidden language name below the article title in question.
    • Hidden name: <!--ar-->
Example
You may also wish to link an existing article which you believe should be replaced (in that case, only change from Don't to Do)
