Sunner, thanks for the suggestion. I like the idea. I can see pros and cons of either technology - MediaWiki at docs.moodle.org and Moodle Wiki in this course as well. For the purposes of the Czech language pack, we have started with a Moodle Wiki in a community course at http://moodle.cz. It is supposed to contain guidelines, general comments etc. (basically I started it to gather frequently repeated comments I give to contributors in their submissions). For us, docs.moodle.org was worse alternative as we have closed the Czech version of it (due to lack of regular contributors).
So I would be personally OK with per-language Wiki module here in this course. But these wikis should focuse on language specific issues (like terminology). General information for newcomers on how to use AMOS etc. would be better to keep at one shared/common place.

Hi David,
I agree that a course can provide more communication tools and easier for amos to integrate document. For example, define translation of terms in glossary and enable auto-link in AMOS translator.
And I also agree that general information should be in English and put together.

Will it be possible that the maintainer of the languages can create the sub-course of translating moodle in native language.
We may use the course to explain the flow,progress of the translating.What more important is we can use course to train the new translaters.
Anyway, it's good idea to consider the translate of Moodle as a project with proper management and organiztion

Are you sure you need a whole course for that? Again, I have no problem with setting one here at lang.moodle.org. Just note that keeping a course "live" takes a lot of effort and there have to be a real demand for it.
Also, that reminds me that I was thinking about having a course here at this site where official language pack maintainers could "study" about advanced AMOS techniques and other procedures relevant to maintaining a language pack (and at the end, they could also reach some sort of "Certified Language Pack Maintainer" level). However, I am constantly finding myself too busy to prepare such a course ...

I will disucss with the zh-cn's maintainer sunzhigang for the plan of training translator and others about AMOS and moodle tanslate.
By the way, it's really a good idea to having a training course for the language pack maintainers. Although you might be too busy to prepare, pls always keep it in your mind.
