Welcome
[edit]Hello, Perfekcyjna and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students.
If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}}
before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.
Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.
Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}}
on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.
We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! Lingzhi ♦ (talk) 17:15, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi there, @Lingzhi: asked me to drop you a line and offer you my guidance. From what I hear you're interested in translating articles from one Wikipedia to another. If you plan on enriching English Wikipedia, a good place to start is Wikipedia:WikiProject Intertranswiki, you'll find plenty of info there. If it's the other way around, there's a handy (if outdated) page pl:Wikiprojekt:Tłumaczenie artykułów and a help page on how to translate to and from Polish Wikipedia at pl:Pomoc:Dla tłumaczy.
If you need technical advice, the easiest way to start translating is by using the mw:Content translation tool (it's a machine translation engine, complete with yandex.ru automatic translation service; the latter is optional and doesn't work that well for English). The Content Translation engine doesn't cope well with translating references, but it's easy to use and saves plenty of time. Alternatively, you could simply copy the code of one article to your sandbox, translate it manually, and then publish it in wherever you see fit (move it to the right place, or copy it over).
The most difficult and time-consuming task is translating references (as I mentioned above, Content Translation engine doesn't translate references well, and gets completely lost when citation templates ({{Cite book}}, {{Cite news}} and so on) are used. Fortunately, there's a handy tool for that as well. Open Konwerter szablonów, copy over the citation you need translated (be it English Wikipedia's {{Cite web}} or its' Polish equivalent {{Cytuj stronę}}), hit enter, and the entire citation template is translated automagically in no time.
Please feel free to ask me more specific questions at my talk page (if you're unsure how to do that, just click this link, fill in the blanks and click "Save page". Oh, and it's great you are here :) //Halibutt 10:05, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
