WICA in German
« on: December 19, 2022, 03:22:15 PM »
Why WikiCarpedia lacks so many content in German language? It is weird, as the original rules were written in German.

Linkback: https://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=6201.0
I translate WikiCarpedia in Romanian (https://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/Main_Page/ro). I have 47,200+ edits at WICA. My WICA user page: https://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/User:NGC_54. Romanian translation of WICA: https://wikicarpedia.com/car/Special:LanguageStats?language=ro&x=D#sortable:3=desc.

Our German team member from old, @Murphy013 , is not active anymore. It would be great if at least one German native speaker could join the WICA team.

Any volunteers?  ^-^

I know that everybody is looking at me right now - I can feel the stares  ;) - but honestly I don't have the time to do it.

If there are any problems of understanding with the German language, I am more than happy to help, but dealing with the WICA is quite another story....

I am in awe of all the people here who translate the whole WICA in other languages... or keep it updated.
BRAVO to all of you, you are doing a fantastic job, I can see it every year during the Advent Quizz!!

Thanks @Challa007 for your kind words and your support.

Don't feel under pressure. No apologies needed... I was asking in general.  ^-^

But we need some volunteers for Fan Expansions section :D So there is not big time needs when compared with time spend as translator.

Think about it :D

We could use translators for most languages on WICA. I did a little analysis about a month ago and these were the approximate completion stats:

German: 11%
Dutch: 100%
Spanish: 11%
French: 98%
Italian: 5%
Polish: 0.4%
Romanian: 100%
Slovak: 2%
Czech: 100%
Russian: 4%
Farsi: 0.1%
Mandarin: 2%
Bulgarian: 1%

Anyone whose native language is something other than English would be an asset to the team. We're constantly adding new content that needs to be translated. A few of us have been quietly branching out into fan expansions and there will be a LOT to translate.

When I did my own analysis, I didn't include all pages, just rules pages for base game and expansions.

The exact percentages are not really relevant. What's relevant is that we can benefit from more translators.
