New page, named "Contents"

[Valentin Laskov]

Hi,

I would like to make new page in the wiki, named something like "Contents" with
a list of all pages, translated in Bulgarian 
language. This page may be managed by translaters and will have different contents for
different languages. A link from main page to 
"Contents" must be created.

Yes, I know there is a special page "All pages", but there is no page "All
pages in your language".

What is your opinion?

Regards!
Valentin Laskov

Strikes me as a lot of work on your guys' end. I'll investigate a
MediaWiki extension that looks at language subpages.

(It would be nice to have page titles translated too. Maybe we'll figure
something out.)

May be, for example, if we have Category "Bulgarian" and I put in pages in
bulgarian [[Category:Bulgarian]] , but this relies on 
translators ...

BTW in Blender wiki there is such page. In this wiki the language index is in the begining
of the address: 
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:BG/2.4/Manual
They have also a nice design.

We could automate the category assignment with our language templates.

Hi,

To solve this problem, the Portuguese team created the Category "pt".
If you add the category to all your pages, a nice index is automagically
created for you.

See our example in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Pt

Thanks for your time

Wouldn't it be possible to update the translating template in order to
add this feature?

I don't really know how wikimedia template works, but I feel
frustrated with the one that we use: there is no revision, we don't
know that the translated version is out of date.

The one used in the OLPC wiki is nicer[1].
You get a revision ID and are notified if the translated id is different.

Moreover, you *have* a link to all translated page in a specific
language (the point disscussed here).
see [2]:" This is the bulk of pages translated into French. Pages are
included here by the use of the Template:Translation automatically. "
