To be written:

Consider you have a language with ISO-code qqx (replace these code with the one you need in the instruction below).

If you want to add a new language to the wiki so that it appears on the main page and in the sidebar you need the following:

  1. create an svg language flag 60 pixels wide. Name it "selsku_lanci_qqx.svg". Upload it to the wiki using Special:Upload page.
  2. Translate the following strings to the language qqx:
    • "Learning" will be "Blabla-learning" in the language qqx. Open the page "Mediawiki:tadni/qqx" and add the text "Blabla-learning" there. Open the page "Mediawiki:tadni-url/qqx" and add the text "Blabla-learning (qqx)" there. Open the page "Blabla-learning (qqx)" in the wiki and write down information on learning Lojban in the language qqx there.
    • "Questions" will be "Blabla-questions" in the language qqx. Open the page "Mediawiki:questioning/qqx" and add the text "Blabla-questions" there. Open the page "Mediawiki:tadni-questioning/qqx" and add the text "Blabla-questions (qqx)" there. Open the page "Blabla-questions (qqx)" in the wiki and write down information on answers to frequently asked questions on Lojban in the language qqx there.
    • "Contacts" will be "Blabla-contacts" in the language qqx. Open the page "Mediawiki:contacting/qqx" and add the text "Blabla-contacts" there. Open the page "Mediawiki:tadni-contacting/qqx" and add the text "Blabla-contacts (qqx)" there. Open the page "Blabla-contacts (qqx)" in the wiki and write down there e-mails, links to social network profiles or links to the pages in the wiki of those people who can help you with Lojban in the language qqx.
    • "Recent changes" will be "Blabla-Recent changes" in the language qqx. Open the page "MediaWiki:Recentchanges/qqx" and add the text "Blabla-Recent changes" there.
    • "Web chat" will be "Blabla-Web Chat" in the language qqx. Open the page "MediaWiki:Webchat/qqx" and add the text "Blabla-Web Chat" there.
  3. Translate the following text to language "qqx" and put it into the content of MediaWiki:Webchat-header/qqx page.

    MediaWiki:Webchat-header/en

  1. add a new string to Widget:Image page
  2. Open MediaWiki:Mlana2 page, edit it and add the following line before the last line with <div>:
    {{remoi|selsku_lanci_''qqx''.svg|ralju_papri&setlang{{=}}''qqx''|NAMEOFYOURLANGUAGE}}
    where NAMEOFYOURLANGUAGE is the name of your language with qqx code.
