Histerie

Translatewiki.net stairted durin 2006 aes ae test wiki, deveelooped bi Nike, in collaboration wi Gangleri, aes aen internationalisation tuil fer the localisation o the MediaWiki saffware. It stairted unner the name Betawiki, n this became translatewiki.net at the stairt o 2009, follaein the site being muived til virtual server hostin unner its ain domain name, oan 9th November 2007. Bi October 2007 translatewiki.net wis contreebuting til localisation in aboot 70 leids, n this bi Juin 2010 had grawn til 329 lieds. Hou the nummer o leids haes grawn is veesible in the buird o owersetin milestanes passed fer MediaWiki. Bi Januair 2010 aen upgrade wis needed til the server capacitie, tae cope wi the increase in acteevitie. Netcup haes generooslie hosted translatewiki.net sin November 2007.

Ither free n apen soorce waurks hae graduallie been eikit til translatewiki.net, stairtin wi FreeCol in August 2007. Bi Juin 2010 the nummer o waurks supportit had grawn til 16.

Contreebuters til translatewiki.net ar aw volunteers, except fer yin staff memmer wha receeves fundin fer pairt o his time (see fundin ablo). Deveeloopers, admeenistraters n owerseters were at first recruited fae MediaWiki waurks, especiallie Wikimedia. Maist o oor contreebuters still arrive here bi wa o MediaWiki, but wi mair projects arrivin aw the time, MediaWiki isna the yinlie soorce o contreebuters onie langer. Bi Juin 2010, the nummer o registered owerseters wis 1,860.

In collaboration wi Stichtin Apen Progress n FUDforum, translatewiki.net haes arranged several owersetin rallies wi boonties fer owersetsers available, tae impruiv the localisation o MediaWiki n FUDforum.

• In 2008 the Dutch NGO Hivos gave fundin bi wa o Stichtin Apen Progress. The graunt wis tae be uised tae provide boonties fer owersets in ae leet o 70 til 80 leids spoken in Africa, Asia, n Latin America that had ae sizable nummer o speakers, but onsuffeecient support in MediaWiki.
• At the end o 2008 aen end o year owersetin rallie apen til aw owerseters wis heeld.
• Durin August 2009 anither owerset rallie wis organized, funded bi Wikimedia Nederland, the Dutch Wikimedia chaipter.
