So, noticing that there aren't many italian TASer currently active (Something like 3 included me), I was thinking about something to encourage italian people to start TASing, but I didn't know how at first. Then, I realized that TASvideos supported different languages, so I immediately thought of helping the forum by translating. While my foreign language is Italian, I can easily understand and translate almost every English sentence. What do you think? In my opinion it's worth a try. I just need to know how to actually translate (how to change writings on a TASvideos page). Grazie per l'attenzione, mi è difficile pensare che qualcuno volesse leggere questo post: A chi fregherebbe di una lingua come l'italiano? (Thank you for your attention, it's hard thinking anybody would want to read this post: who would care about a language such as Italian?)

Man, I would feel bad if I knew I helped in making somebody choose the path of TASing. Poor soul. Jokes aside, I didn’t even know TASV had such a multilanguage feature. I know the forum has sections for other languages but didn’t know about the main site.

http://tasvideos.org/WelcomeToTASVideos.html -> Русская версия. Just become a wiki editor, create a page (in similar fashion), and put your wikifized translation on it.
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.

What I meant was starting to translate for language settings on your profile options (There's English, Finnish, iirc Japanese, French and German) But yeah, okay. How do I actually become a wiki editor? I guess you have to make me become one.

Oh, you mean translating the forum itself?

If that's the case, Google Translate is getting 1/4 of the sentences wrong. Don't underestimate the effort you can put in finding the right terms. It can be tough sometimes. Anyway yeah, I was thinking about the forum, but it would be better doing main pages first.

I know right lol And yeah, quota is right. Grr. EDIT: So, I'm a wiki editor now. I already started translating the page (http://tasvideos.org/WelcomeToTASVideos/IT.html) Alaktorn, if you find some stuff a bit ambigue tell me. I'll do my best.
