Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English
This page has a backlog that requires the attention of willing editors. Please remove this notice when the backlog is cleared. |
This encyclopedia is written in English. Sometimes an article is published here in another language by mistake, or is poorly translated into English from one of the approximately 300 Wikipedias in other languages, and requires retranslation or attention from bilingual editors to bring it up to English Wikipedia standards.
Articles in poorly translated English should be listed here. Several templates are available to tag articles needing translation, such as {{Rough translation}} and {{Proofreader needed}}. Besides tagging the page, these templates also display instructions on how to list the article here.
Articles not in English may be listed here to see if they can be translated before they are listed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Template {{Not English}} is available to tag the article. If someone speaks the language the article is written in and can affirm that it is not worth translating, the item should be listed at AfD or tagged with {{prod}}. If a non-English article has been listed here for two weeks and is still untranslated, it should be removed from Wikipedia following one of the processes laid out in our deletion policy.
Please keep in mind that drafts are out of scope for this page.
How to help edit
There are two main ways you can help this project:
- Find pages that need translation or proofreading, and add them to the list on this page. See #Standard procedures below for how to do this.
- Find a page that is already in the list (see #Translated pages that could still use some cleanup) and help translate it. Or, pick a random article that needs cleanup which has been translated from one of these languages, and fix that article:
Note: you can click the same language multiple times, and it will give you a different article each time you click it (if there is more than one for that language).
You can also view a list of all articles in need of post-translation cleanup for a given language at these links: Albanian, Arabic, Belarusian, Bosnian, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Dutch, Farsi, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Punjabi, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Spanish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese.
Standard procedures edit
If you are here for the first time and have an article in a language other than English or a poorly translated article that you wish to list here to forestall possible deletion, you should start by finding the most appropriate template from among the ones listed at Wikipedia:Template messages/Translation and add it to the article page, save the page, and then follow the instructions in the banner on how to list the article here. You might need to click '[show]' to see all the instructions.
If you want to ask for a translation into English of an article from another language's Wikipedia, go to Wikipedia:Translation.
Listing a page here
Most pages get listed here by subst'ing a {{Needtrans}}
template, following the instructions given at any one of several translation-related templates that are added to the article page. Many of the templates found at Wikipedia:Template messages/Translation propose adding the corresponding article here.
See section Translation template usage below for details of the templates available for use on the main article page.
Other ways to find articles for inclusion on this page are:
- Find articles in a specific language category under Category:Expand by language Wikipedia templates. For example, Template:Expand Spanish puts articles into Category:Articles needing translation from Spanish Wikipedia.
- Monitor Recent changes tagged with ContentTranslation keyword
Tagging
If the article is a mere copy of (all or part of) an article in another language's Wikipedia, it can just be tagged with {{db-foreign}} to get added to Wikipedia:Candidates for speedy deletion: we want to discourage people who cut articles from one Wikipedia and paste to another without translating. You can leave a message on the contributing user's talk-page in their own language, using the templates from WP:PNT/Templates for user talk pages or using {{UE}}; this will point them to the appropriate Wikipedia in the language they used.
Replacement and restoration
Sometimes, legitimate articles are replaced by content in other languages. In this case, the last English-language version should be restored from the history.
In addition, you may leave a message on the user's talk-page as indicated above.
Notification
When listing a page here, you might want to find the Wikipedia:Embassy, Ambassador, or Wikipedia:Local embassy member of the Wikipedia that relates to the language the article is in and invite them to move the page to their own Wikipedia. If you don't even know what language the article is in you could use Language recognition chart, and if that fails, some language identification web site, such as Xerox or What Language Is This? to find out. If you have come here from another Wikipedia, please note on this page what you think should be done with the article.
Deletion
If an article has been listed here for two weeks and is still untranslated, it should be nominated for deletion. (See also Guide to deletion.)
Articles that are not in English are still subject to all other forms of speedy deletion should they meet the criteria, and can be nominated for deletion by prod or afd should an editor feel they warrant deletion for a reason other than the language it is in, an article not being in English is not itself a criterion for deletion until the two week period has passed. Also, articles in other languages are still subject to blp prod.
After translation
When a page listed here has been translated, its entry should be removed (or moved to section Cleanup if the translation needs another pair of eyes).
There are also procedures to follow at the Talk page of the article itself; see template {{translated page}}
and Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate.
Translation template usage edit
Various templates are available to tag the article page needing translator attention, and one template is available for use here at WP:PNT.
The following templates are available to tag articles with translation issues in preparation for listing the article at WP:PNT:
- {{notenglish}} – "This page is written in a language other than English..."
- {{cleanup-translation}} – "contains translated text and needs attention..."
- {{hidden translation}} – "an earlier translated version may have introduced errors of fact..."
- {{rough translation}} – "may have been generated by a computer or by a translator without dual proficiency"
- {{translate passage}} – "A passage needs to be translated from Language into English"
- {{not English inline}} – "[needs Eng. translation]" after a phrase
The following templates are available for use at WP:PNT to list an article here that has a translation issue:
- {{Translation request}} (formerly called {{Needtrans}} )
- {{Dual fluency request}} (a.k.a. {{Duflu}} )
These templates, and other templates relating to translation issues outside the scope of WP:PNT can be found at Wikipedia:Template messages/Translation.
Templates for article pages
One of the following templates should be used at the top of the article page:
Not English
Template {{not English}} (alias: {{notenglish}}) is available for a page that needs translation in its entirety (so it would be appropriate to delete if not fixed):
- 1. Use the notice
{{notenglish|NameOfLanguage}}
if you know the language used, or{{notenglish}}
if you cannot identify the language of the page in question. - 2. Add a mention to the list of pages needing translation, using
{{Needtrans}}
as detailed below. - 3. You may also choose to warn the contributing editor with
{{uw-english}}
, the "use English" warning, or suggest submitting it to a different language Wikipedia with{{contrib-xx1}}
, where xx is the language code (see available templates). An alternate template for identifying the article as having been listed here is{{uw-notenglish}}
. - Bilingual versions of this template have been created for Norwegian, Spanish, Polish, and French. See the note on these at
{{uw-notenglish}}
.
Not English section
If there is just a section that needs translation:
- 1. Use the notice
{{Not English|NameOfLanguage|section}}
, with the word "section" as a second unnamed parameter at the beginning of the non-English content. - 2. Add a mention on this page, as above.
- 3. You may wish to place a note on the talk pages of contributors of non-English material, saying that English Wikipedia is meant for English-language content, inviting them to translate it, and, if appropriate, suggesting the location of the Wikipedia edition for the language in question should they wish to post content in that language.
Cleanup translation
Template {{cleanup translation}} (alias: {{cleanup-translation}}) is available if the article has been translated, but needs attention from someone approaching dual fluency in both languages:
- 1. Use the notice
{{cleanup-translation}}
. - 2. Add a mention to the translation cleanup section.
Hidden translation
Template {{Hidden translation}} is available if the article was translated at an earlier point and contained factual errors, while subsequent edits fixed up the English without fixing the errors of fact. The article now looks good and not "machine-translated" anymore, but the original errors of fact are still there, papered over with a facade of good English.
- 1. Use the notice {{Hidden translation}}, for example,
{{Hidden translation|lang-name|version-nbr}}
- 2. Add a mention to the translation cleanup section, using the provided {{Needtrans}} invocation.
Rough translation
Template {{rough translation}} is available if the article has been translated, but it looks to be either a machine translation or by someone who doesn't have a good command of the target language, and needs attention from a translator; more than just copyediting is required.
- 1. Use the notice {{rough translation}}, for example,
{{rough translation|German|Deutsch}}
. - 2. Add a mention to the translation cleanup section, using
{{Needtrans}}
as detailed below.
Translate passage
Template {{Translate passage}} is available for articles that are primarily in English, but have a brief section like a quotation, poem, excerpt, etc. in another language, that needs translation.
- 1. Use the notice {{translate passage}}, for example,
{{subst:Translate passage|ArticleName|language=LanguageName}}
- 2. Add a mention to the translation cleanup section, using
{{Needtrans}}
as detailed below.
Templates for use here
Once you have tagged the article page with one of the templates above, the banner that appears will provide instructions on using a template to add an entry to the list of pages needing translation (titled "Pages for consideration") using the {{Needtrans}}
template or the translation cleanup section (titled "Translated pages that could still use some cleanup") :
Translation request
Template {{Translation request}} (a.k.a., {{Needtrans}} ) is available for use in the list of pages needing translation.
Follow instructions at the expanded banner generated by {{Rough translation}}
or {{Cleanup translation}}
to place {{Translation request}}
at the bottom of the cleanup section at WP:PNTCU. Sample invocations:
{{subst:Needtrans |pg=Wilhelm II, German Emperor |language=German}} ~~~~
For those pages written in a foreign language, please also consider also placing
{{subst:uw-notenglish |1=Template:not English}} ~~~~
on the talk page of the author.
Dual fluency request
Template {{Dual fluency request}} (a.k.a., {{Duflu}} ) is available for use in the translation cleanup section.
Follow instructions at the expanded banner generated by {{Rough translation}}
or {{Cleanup translation}}
to subst template {{Dual fluency request}}
onto the page at the bottom of the cleanup section. Sample invocations:
{{subst:Dual fluency request|pg=Wilhelm II, German Emperor|language=German}}
~~~~
Pages for consideration edit
Language identification If you are not completely sure of what language an article is written in, check the language recognition chart and/or try Google Translate. If you are sure, consider placing the corresponding template on the creator's talk page. |

List of states in Zhou Dynasty edit
The original Chinese article is zh:周朝諸侯國列表. Alpha514 (talk) 23:27, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- Please do not delete it. I will try my best to improve it when I have time. This is a helpful entry about Chinese history, and translating it will require more time. Iuliusnanus (talk) 22:47, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- I would move this to draft space
or use the translation tool if you have access. Exobiotic 💬 ✒️ 02:50, 14 August 2023 (UTC)- Contrary to my esteemed colleague above, I would (strongly) advise against using the content translation tool; see Wikipedia:Content translation tool; at least we regulars at PNT are (mostly) against using translation tools or machine-translations: they create more problems than they solve (viz all the machine-translated articles still lingering about in PNT).

Translated pages that could still use some cleanup edit
This page has a backlog that requires the attention of willing editors. Please remove this notice when the backlog is cleared. |
Pages listed here are "mostly done" or need sources or works included in the article to be translated. They could still use some attention from someone who approaches dual-fluency. Please use the notice {{cleanup-translation}} on the page.

The initial language of this article was Czech?. Many sections are very crudely translated and are difficult to read as a Native English speaker.

The initial language of this article was French. My French is on the weak side, but I think I've got most of it. In particular the dozen or so French "sayings" are not translating well. Someone familiar with French legal system would be best. LilHelpa (talk) 21:32, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
- Did some work on it but it needs more and I need a break. May require research for some of those adages. For example, I don't understand #1 either in English or in French, but "si" possibly means "yes" here, not "if". For example. This might benefit more from French history than French law, since this is not the modern system, either, but anyone who supposedly laid the foundations of French law has to be considered notable. Needed the French original. Four of the adages are wikilinked on fr.wikipedia. Resolved a few mysteries, more needs to be done. Elinruby (talk) 09:05, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

History of Shinto edit
This page appears to have started as a poor-quality machine translation of the Japanese Wikipedia page ja:神道の歴史. The article structure is largely intact so far as I've checked, so it's still pretty easy to align sentence-by-sentence. Of chief concern that I've noticed is mistranslated / misromanized titles, such as in the #Theorizing_Shinto_and_the_Honji_Suijaku_Theory section where we see things like 三角柏伝記 mis-rendered as "Sankaku Kashiwa Denki" instead of the expected Mitsuno Kashiwa Denki, or 中臣祓訓解 appearing as "Chuushin Horaikunka" instead of the expected Nakatomi no Harae Kunge. That said, the whole piece should be reviewed and cleaned up -- even a cursory skim reveals wording, continuity, punctuation, and grammar mistakes, mostly further down the article -- it seems that the first few paragraphs have received the most attention. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 22:55, 15 March 2022 (UTC)

According to the talk page this isn't so much a bad translation as bad OCR of the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica, but it does need serious help, preferably from someone familiar with Central Asia and the Silk Road. I've just spent a good part of a day adding references and identifying the beginning and end of sentences, but it needs much much more. The references do definitely seem to be out there, fwiw; everything I tried to verify could easily be referenced. I am interested and will probably be back, but after we're done with the sentence forensics big chunks of it will probably need to be re-written for readabily as it is difficult to follow which usurper imprisoned the rightful heir of which country, etc. Elinruby (talk) 05:36, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

The initial language of this article was Japanese. Auric talk 19:24, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
- The current "translation" is a travesty of bad machine translation, worked over primarily by a human editor who doesn't understand how to do translation, doesn't understand how to look up terms, doesn't understand Japanese at all, cannot read the phonetic parts of Japanese writing, and is wholly unfamiliar with the subject matter.
- This user is prolific, and nearly all of their content is generated the same way -- machine-translating articles from non-English Wikipedias, and then badly reworking the result. Various editors, myself included, have attempted to advise them to stop utilizing this deeply flawed process. See also User_talk:Immanuelle/Archive_2#Dongyue_Dadi and related threads in their Talk page archives.
- About the [[Himetataraisuzu-hime]] article itself, I am not sure if this is sufficiently notable for English-language readers.
- About the user, I have followed them for some months, and I am convinced that their editing activities here result in a net negative effect for the Wikipedia corpus: so much is wrong, and so many of their newly-created articles are for niche topics that few other English-language editors will see, and if they see them they may not be able to recognize them as bad, let alone fix them.
- I am much less active here than on EN Wiktionary, so I am much less familiar with process. My recommendation is that some kind of administrative intervention is needed. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 21:30, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
- Regarding the article, by way of one metric for notability, I tried googling for the article name with and without the hyphen and excluding obvious Wiki mirrors. Doing so produces only 645 ostensible Google hits in the entire Latin-alphabet internet. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 22:13, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
- I consider this topic notable enough and am mildly interested, but my hands are currently full and I am not the right person for fixing this kind of problem in Japanese translation.

But since then it has been edited a lot. You are right I should do another copyedit but before that I intend to add more info (not from the Turkish article as that is very short).

- Yeah, pretty awful to risible. Fixed the lead and first section, but plenty more to go. Mathglot (talk) 03:59, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
Affair of the Cards edit
Substantive account of a French scandal in the early 1900s; would bet money on machine translation. Definitely some strangenesses that look like auto-complete Elinruby (talk) 10:25, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Theni district edit
Tagged as "Entire sections are only partially and badly translated into English. See: so many moovies taken by tamilnadu film industry the moovies are list out below pithamagan". * Pppery * it has begun... 21:41, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
May 2024 edit
Nancy municipal archives edit
The original article, Archives municipales de Nancy, is in French. English version appears to be machine translated and needs some work. There are also a few sections in the frwiki article that have not been added to the translation. Alpha3031 (t • c) 10:38, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
Laure-Gatet High School edit
The original article, Lycée Laure-Gatet, is in French. asilvering (talk) 17:46, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
Islam Aur Mouseeqi edit
The original article, اسلام اور موسیقی, is in Urdu. But what really needs an eye on it is my own clumsy attempt to include quotes from the sources in the footnotes; I was able to correct a few mistakes in the machine translation but I have low confidence. I'd especially like eyes on the author's name. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 18:55, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
1... R-32 opening edit
The original article, ja :2手目△3二飛, is in Japanese. Some translations might be a bit awkward, so someone more fluent might be able to improve it. Some links and sources also need work. I'm not fluent but I did my best. SanaMinaMomo (talk) 01:27, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
Antonio Cabral de Melo edit
The original article, Antonio Cabral de Melo, is in Spanish. Relatively slim article but needs confirmation of basic facts by a Spanish speaker. SunTunnels (talk) 17:07, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Ferdinando Marinelli Artistic Foundry edit
The original article, Fonderia Artistica Ferdinando Marinelli, is in Italian. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:03, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
- I've listed this here, but the nature of the problem lies more in the source article than in the translation itself. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:13, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
Battle of Monastyrische edit
The original article is in uncertain. Seems to be a poor translation, filled with poor grammar. Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 04:30, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- Original article might be in Russian, Ukranian, or Polish. I think there is a decent amount of OR here too, but I can not say for sure. -- Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 04:32, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
Peter the Great Interrogating the Tsarevich Alexei Petrovich at Peterhof edit
The original article, Проект:Переводы/Запросы на перевод, is in Russian. References need to be translated/author names transliterated from Russian to English. Chaotıċ Enby (talk · contribs) 19:19, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- Chaotic Enby, the linked Russian page is a Wikipedia project page. Can you confirm that the original page you meant to link is ru:Пётр I допрашивает царевича Алексея Петровича в Петергофе ? Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 00:12, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, and I'm very confused how I ended up linking the wrong page. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 05:38, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

The original article is in Polish. Dclemens1971 (talk) 02:37, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
Montevideo Wanderers F.C. edit
The original article, Montevideo Wanderers Fútbol Club, is in Spanish. This is an awful machine translation, possibly of first-party sources given passages like "Wanderers was a true protagonist at the dawn of professionalism in those first years of the rented era of our football". There is also an issue that so much of this is non-neutral and unsourced, so please do not simply turn this problematic content into English. Unknown Temptation (talk) 16:39, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

José Corbató Chillida edit
The original article is in uncertain. The translation itself is not exceedingly poor, but it was obviously translated into English by a non-native speaker and needs copy editing for that purpose. ThaesOfereode (talk) 14:16, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Imamzadeh Qasem, Zarqan edit
The probable original article, امامزاده قاسم (زرقان), is in Persian. The English is poor to incomprehensible in places. Colonies Chris (talk)

The 100 Views of Nature in Kansai edit
The original article, 関西自然に親しむ風景100選, is in Japanese. Many place names are simply Japanese transliterations, but should be fully translated into English. JoseMoranGomez (talk) 08:49, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
