:Yes, this is a limitation of a '''[[w:wiki|wiki]]'''—whose articles changes too quickly to be maintained. AFAIK, even [[metawikipedia:|Wikimedia]] projects have a few outdated translations. However, this ''does not'' apply to documentations. Translated readmes can still be placed here. --[[User:Explorer09|Explorer09]] 15:04, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I want to translate Articles to German. How it is possible? Would be great, to have the Worms Knowledge Base in more than one language.

And sorry for this, but I don't know where to ask. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fensterbank (talkcontribs)

The problem with translations is that the WKB maintainers cannot guarantee the continued accuracy of the translated articles - as the original English articles continue evolving, the translations will become outdated unless someone continuously maintains them. Thus, the translations cannot be an authoritative source of information. If you have the possibility, I think it's best if you create your own website with translations of WKB articles. --Vladimir 00:52, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
Yes, this is a limitation of a wiki—whose articles changes too quickly to be maintained. AFAIK, even Wikimedia projects have a few outdated translations. However, this does not apply to documentations. Translated readmes can still be placed here. --Explorer09 15:04, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
