there is again the problem, that someone exchanged the English text
with a translation.
You are correct, but there seems to be a larger problem. Some 250 pages
of Russian-language documentation are in th

OK, I'm done with the first pass at creating a Help:Extensions page
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Help:Extensions
I'll update this list and the linked Help pages when new extensions are
added/enabled.
I'll also eventually add this to the main Wiki Help page:

I'm curious as to why this is happening? Is there perhaps a better way

I'm not familiar with the process of translation. Is it awkward? Do I
have to pull up two different wiki sections to translate? Am I using
two tabs to two different sections of the wiki? Or are two browsers

Arent there a few WikiBots that could be trained to do the task?
For Bot tasks I use pywikipediabot (Python based bot that's pretty easy
to use). I run it on my own computer at home, using a Bot user ID

It's hard to run the python bot on the server
Thank you, Clayton.
Because of wide screens these days, I like the idea of working on a
translation side by side. A wiki framework would have to be built to
enable this.
My 2c worth. Thanks, Nino. ;-)
If I were doing translation I would actually like 3 phases. I think all
