How to help translate

Navigate to Data:Dictionary and add the translations for a specific key there. For example, to translate 'Patch notes' to spanish (es), edit the record in the Dictionary from

"Patch notes": {
		"en": "Patch notes",
		"ru": "Содержание обновления"
	}

to

"Patch notes": {
		"en": "Patch notes",
		"ru": "Содержание обновления",
		"es": "Notas de revision"
	}

Similarly, if translating a new key not yet added, simply add the record that looks like the above at the bottom of the page, but be sure the last curly brace } has a comma afterwards.

Example

Without providing lang_override, the language will be detected based on the subpage the user is on, i.e. /Abrams/es will be detected as a spanish page.

{{Translate|Patch notes}}

Outputs

Patch notes

{{Translate|Patch notes|ru}}

Outputs

Содержание обновления

If translation to that language does not yet exist, it will default to the english translation, and add {{NeedsTranslation}} at the end.

{{Translate|Patch notes|zh}}

Outputs

Patch notes
