Abstract[edit | edit source]
The Content Translation extension has been used in Wikipedia in all languages since 2015 by more than 78,000 users to create more than 900,000 articles. It is being developed further to become more usable to more people in more countries & languages. The two main new features that have been made available for early testing in 2021 are the possibility to add sections to already-existing articles by translating them from other languages, & to translate conveniently on mobile devices. This session will present a brief history of Content Translation, the research & design process that lead to the new features, the features themselves & their particular relevance to contributors in under-represented languages, what we have learnt so far, & demo.
