Success!  I got in contact by email with this user.  I'm sorting out the 
rollbacks.  Next step after that is helping the user get the 
translations going in the right place.

OK, I think this is complete now.  I've rolled back all affected pages, 
and created the new Zh pages (see [1] below).


I've unblocked Claire - I've been in direct email contact with this 
person, and I don't think the block is necessary anymore.  The user now 
realizes that they were converting the English source to Chinese and has 
stopped.


I've given Claire a simple set of instructions on how to create a new 
page for translations, and asked Claire to join the mailing list here so 
we can help out with the translations.

 The problem is, this person is doing the edits right in the English
 pages instead of creating a Chinese page.

 I've contacted this user and asked that they join this mailing list so
 that we can assist then, and undo the damage done to the English pages
 without loosing their translations.

 Do we need a Translators' How-To (or Help)?

There is a little bit of info available here:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Dashboard/Wiki_Editing_Policy#Localizing_Content

It does not cover all scenarios... and it is focused primarily on the
Developer's Guide.

 BTW, let's get this Guide started off right, with a TOC_ZH, and using
 the MasterTOC.
 

Good point...

I've rolled back the first page of translations this person did, and
then created a Zh page to start the document:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Zh/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/Calc_Guide

I'm still trying to get in contact with the person doing the
translations... I'm going to post to the l10n mailing list as well...
some of the Chinese community hangs out there and may be able to help
sort this out and explain (in Claire's native language) what needs to be
done.

I've checked the new content, and what I pushed through the Google
translator seems to be accurate translations of the original content.
