All, 

Following the upgrade of the wiki.chapters.isoc.org site, a new innovative and unique translation management system for a wiki has been put in place. 

We need to translate the following page: 
http://wiki.chapters.isoc.org/tiki-index.php?page=Sphere+Project 
in French and Spanish 

To do that, in the language menu on the top right, drop down the list and click on "translate", then select the language (French) and name the newly translated page, in our case: Sphere Project,fr 

For pages already translated, like http://wiki.chapters.isoc.org/tiki-index.php?page=HomePageChapters you will see in the left column a new module/menu that indicates the completeness of the translation and if there are "Translations that need improvement", click on the icon that says "update it", for instance update the page HomePageChapters,fr. The system will show you side by side the differences between the previous English version and the current one, which will allow you to edit the french version knowing which part in English has changed. 

The languages that are showed to you in the translation module/menu are linked to your preferences set in: 
http://wiki.chapters.isoc.org/tiki-user_preferences.php 

For more info on this new translation system please see:

Yes it is a little bit confusing, but it does quite a good job as soon as you get the hang of it.
