Wiki use

The goal is ease of use and editing, not perfection. E.g. it is OK if languages are mixed.
It is suggested to maintain long link lists preferably in the English version. You can use | Labeled Section Transclusion to mark these relatively efficiently for just translating headings or other selected parts. E.g. there are named sections in the source code of source code of the English https://embargo.energy/index.php/Saving , which then are referred to by the German page https://embargo.energy/index.php/Saving/de.
The default language is English. To create a new page or language just use "PageName/language" e.g. "Petitions/de" for "Petitions" in German. Then the language links appear automatically.
To add a new menu bar in a new language, drop mail to hb3141@gmail.com.
