> We at WikiProject Medicine are working on a collaborative effort with
> Translators Without Borders (TWB), a group which includes 2,000 or so
> volunteer translators. We are working to translate key medical articles
> into as many other languages as possible. Currently we have translated
> content into 50 or so languages amounting to 2.3 million words of text.
>
> The process involves first bringing articles to either GA or FA status in
> English. They are then delivered, with MediaWiki markup in place, to the
> TWB website where the text is sent out to the translators. Once translated
> we at Wikipedia are notified via orange links on this page here:
> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:MED/Progress
>
> This issue currently is that we are missing Wikipedians in some languages
> to add / combine the translated content into the respective Wikipedia. Some
> of the article created through this process have reached feature article
> status including translations into Hungarian of anaphylaxis and
> hypertension. We currently have translated content in the following
> languages waiting to be integrated:
>
> Hindi
>
> Chinese
>
> Persian
>
> Tagalog
>
> Indonesian
>
> Macedonian
>
> Greek
>
> Bulgarian

> Danish
