Wikipedia talk:Translation into English/Dutch

Translation of source material for inclusion in articles?
I'm not sure whether there's any place for this, but ... occasionally there's an English article for which SOURCE material needs translation. In other words, there's not a Dutch article, but there are Dutch-language sources that have material that the English-language Wikipedia article needs.

On the Talk page for the article History of the Jews in Hungary, the site Holocaust Memorial Budapest has been recommended as source material to expand the 20th-century part of the Wikipedia article. Is there an appropriate place for requesting that someone with translation skills who reads Dutch skim the source and add translations of useful segments to the Wikipedia article? Or do we think that at that point we're getting too far outside Wikipedia's function and mission? Lawikitejana 16:42, 11 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I've had a look at those texts - the newspaper scans - and as far as I can see they don't offer much new information that would be useful for the article. The English texts on that web page are a summary (albeit very short) of the news articles. They describe how Karoly Szabo and a friend Szalai (who was a nazi) saved a lot of the people in Budapest with the co-operation of Sweden - false swedish papers were printed. These people were snatched back from the nazis after they had been rounded up. That's the long and short of it after a quick scan. Bikerams 18:42, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Move to Translation
Hello!

The translation project has been entirely revamped and is now here. Since there aren't many requests for translations from Dutch, we are thinking of merging this page with the main project page so as to make the requests much more likely to be seen.

Please leave a message here or on Translation's talkpage if you feel that translations from Dutch should have their own subpage in the project.

 * Certainly for ease of access, I would like to see a subpage for translations frm Dutch. Bikerams 21:31, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * What do you think of Translation/_lang/nl ? Jmfayard 23:50, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
