The purpose of the Wikipedia Machine Translation Project is to develop ideas, methods and tools that can help translate Wikipedia to non-english languages.

Motivation
Small languages can't produce articles as fast as english wikipedia because the number of wikipedians is too low. The solution for this problem is the translation of english wikipedia. But, some languages will not have enough translators. Machine Translation can improve de productivity of the community.

WikipediaTranslator
WikipediaTranslator (WikiTranslator/BabelWiki) is a to be coded wiki that helps wikipedians to translate articles from english to other languages.


License All code and data should be released under a free licence

Advantages

  • faster translation of wikipedia
  • generation of large amounts of usefull data (corpora).
  • creation of an usefull tool

WikipediaTranslator - Translation memory aproach
A Translation Memory is a computer program that uses a database of old translations to help a human translator. If this aproach is followed, WikipediaTranslator will need the following features:

  • visualization of translated and original versions
  • split of original versions on several parts for individual translation
