wikiHow:Romana wikiHow Project

Edited by Chris Hadley, iiuliia, BR, Glutted and 15 others

wikiHow's long term vision is to make a free how-to manual available to everyone on earth. To do this, we need to build wikiHow in multiple languages. The method we use to do this is described in the Language Version Process. Right now the Romana language is in the "project phase" where we try to sign up enough dedicated volunteers to build a live wikiHow.

EditWhat We Need

  • At least one volunteer who wants to be the dedicated go-between for the English and Romana wikiHow communities. This person should be an editor of the English wikiHow who has some familiarity with way wikiHow works. Being a go-between can involve a significant time commitment so only volunteer if you truly want the job.
  • Several other speakers of Romana language that plan to contribute to the new wikiHow.
  • A few volunteers who will help translate the language file from English to Romana .
  • A few volunteers to create some basic documentation pages in the Romana wikiHow so new editors know how to get started. Important pages like the Writer's Guide, About wikiHow need to be translated.

EditBuild a Team of Volunteers

We need to have a team of volunteers who are plan to contribute to a wikiHow in this language if we build it.

  2. aztecul_dilit-I am a native speaker of Romanian, but I've studied English since I was 8, and this language is a must in studying for my carreer, which is Medicine, so I can be a translator for WikiHow.
  3. iiULiiA
  4. syhaya
  5. Adrenalin
  6. Gabrielle Delacroix- I'm willing to be the go-between for this language project, as I'm an excellent speaker of English and a native speaker of Romanian.
  7. Boomerang-I am Romanian and I know very good english
  8. Bogdinamita- Romanian, but speak English very good
  9. Ade369 - I'm a native speaker of Romanian, but I speak English very good.
  10. Novix 21:53, 3 November 2010 (GMT) - I am a native speaker of Romanian, and I hope my command of English is sufficient to translate relevant articles. Apparently this Project needs a Go-between since Gabrielle above is no longer contributing to wikiHow (as per her profile page)

  12. CrMariusMihai Native Romanian speaker with a really good english, who graduated the Cambridge exam two years ago.

EditNext Steps

Once we have enough people and at least one go-between who is also a regular editor on the English wikiHow we will be able to proceed. To accelerate this process you might consider trying to recruit new members. If you have any questions, please feel free to email Jack at [email protected].
