translatewiki.net

translatewiki.net is a localisation platform for translation communities, language communities, and free and open source projects. translatewiki.net started during 2006 as a test wiki, developed by nike, in collaboration with gangleri, as an internationalisation tool for the localisation of the mediawiki software. it started under the name betawiki, which became translatewiki.net at the beginning of 2009, following the site being moved to virtual server hosting under its own domain name, on 9th november 2007. by october 2007 translatewiki.net was contributing to localisation in around 70 languages, which by june 2010 had grown to 329 languages. how the number of languages has grown is visible in the table of translation milestones passed for mediawiki. by january 2010 an upgrade was needed to the server capacity, to cope with the increase in activity. netcup has generously hosted translatewiki.net since november 2007.
