Language Rules
- English is the main reference language, and all root pages should be named and written in English.
- Other languages should be placed in an appropriately named sub-page of the English version. E.g. the French version of Help:Contents should be at Help:Contents/fr (not Help:Sommaire, Aide:Sommaire or Help:Sommaire/fr).
- Language sub-pages should be named using the appropriate language code for that language (see below).
- Sub-pages should only be used for translations into other languages, not for English content.
- You do not need to create an English version to add contents to the wiki, insted use the {{underconstruction}} template for the English page if no contents exists but it exists in other languages.
Supported languages
