Wikipedia is one of the most consulted knowledge platforms in the world, and having multilingual pages can dramatically expand access, credibility, and informational visibility across regions. However, translating a Wikipedia article isn’t as simple as transferring text from one language to another. Each language edition has its own editorial norms and community standards that govern …
Each Wikipedia language edition operates with its own community standards. What is acceptable in English may be rejected in another language. Instead of copying and pasting text, we adapt the content to the target community’s standards, ensuring it aligns with how that language's editors interpret notions of notability, neutrality, and sourcing.
Wikipedia translations must reflect the factual intent of the original article. Introducing interpretation, promotional language, or information not backed by sources can compromise neutrality and trigger editorial scrutiny. The translation process, therefore, focuses on preserving tone, structure, and verifiability rather than merely converting text word-for-word.
Translation isn’t just about converting text. It requires localization of the underlying references and citations so that the page remains verifiable within the target Wikipedia community.
Wikipedia clearly states that not all articles should be translated, as some fail notability outside their original language market. Thus, we pre-screen for notability alignment before committing effort, preventing avoidable rejections.
Most translated pages fail not because of language, but because they trigger Original research tags, unverified claims, or may have machine translation flags
