The SETI post-detection wiki welcomes translation!

This wiki builds on community knowledge practices developed by Wikimedia, including the model outlined on Wikipedia:Translation.

In the spirit of Wikimedia and commons knowledge-sharing practices, you are encouraged to translate any page into your language. Please retain a note about the original source and link back to the original page. If your translation adds new insight or local context, please annotate and adapt (described below).

Translation Guide

See [] for an example of a translated page.

How to Translate a Page

• Create a new page with a language prefix.

e.g., a French translation of the individual Translate page would be fr:Contribute/Translate, a Japanese translation ja:Contribute/Translate and an Indonesian translation would be id:Contribute/Translate).

See here for the official ISO 639-1 language codes that MediaWiki uses for prefixes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639_language_codes

• Add a note at the top of this new page and link back to the original page.

e.g., '''This is a translation of [[Contribute/Translate]] from English to French/Japanese/Indonesian etc.”

• Translate the page.

Take care to use clear, consistent terms.

  AuthorLast, First. Year. "Title." ''Journal or Source''. Date. [Link]

• Annotate to add context if needed.

e.g., if there are culturally specific terms or perspectives to note, or slightly different meanings in translation, please include a brief note or addition as a footnote, or a short translator’s note.

• At the bottom of your page, add:
