Last updated: 23 August 2019
Each site has pages that have been translated into one or more languages other than English (sometimes more than 20). Anyone who would like to translate any of the pages at any of these sites into a new language is welcome to do so. Normally the translation is hosted at the translator's site and linked to from the original page, as in this example, which has the language buttons on top and table of translation credits at the end.
If you would like to translate a page to a new language, send me email at the address above. Rules: § Translations should be done by a competent speaker of the given language, not Google Translate. § It's OK to request linking to a commercial site, but please: no phishing or other hostile sites, no porn, no aggressive popups, etc. § There is no charge for installing the links and credits, and no money can be paid by me for the translations. § Your translation should link back to the original page. § Your translated page should announce its language in the <lang=xx> attribute, where xx is the ISO 6391-1 language code (see list). § You should supply the following information about your translation so I can link to it:
Pages that have been translated as of the "updated" date above are shown in the table below. Click each link to see the languages each page has been translated to so far. Click a language name at the top to see which pages have been translated into that language. Entries in italics are popular pages that have no translations yet.
