[edit] Talk
This section is for all those who have requested this translation, are translating or proofreading this article, or just want to give some advice about the translation in progress. Do not forget to watch this page.
In particular, you can use {{Doubt | original sentence }} or {{Doubt | original sentence | possible translation}} to highlight the problems you encounter during the translation process.
- But what is the point of translation of those references into English? These references were published in Serbia or former Yugoslavia and they exist only in Serbian/Serbo-Croatian language. The whole purpose of listing references for something is that somebody could go to library to find and read such references and since those references do not exist in library in English language, it would not be useful for anybody to translate names of these books into English since he cannot find such books under such names. I translated the text from these references (I plan to translate more and expand this article), but I do not see a point of translating references because library do not have those references written in English.

[edit] Instructions
Updating the information on the translation
The translation process normally involves the following stages: "Request," "In Progress," "Proofreaders Needed," and "Completed Translation."
It is, of course, possible to backtrack to the previous stage (if you have decided to not continue translating, for example). It is also possible to skip a stage, especially if you want to start translating an article you chose immediately; in this case, you would skip the request stage by not putting it on the page for the current month's requested translations.
To pass from one stage to another, you must:
- modify the parameters of the progress made on this page, and
- put the
{{Wikipedia:Translation/Dražeta}}banner, which will take care of all the rest, in the right place.
Note : if, in a particular situation, you think that the template takes up too much space, you can use the following syntax instead :
{{Wikipedia:Translation/Dražeta| Parameter = hide }}
The table below shows all the steps needed for each stage:
| Stage | Parameters to modify | {{Wikipedia:Translation/Dražeta}} |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1: Translation Request |
It starts at the creation of the page and involves the following parameters:
|
|
| Stage 2: Translation in Progress |
|
|
| Stage 3: Proofreaders Needed |
Each time someone volunteers to proofread, he/she must modify the following parameters:
|
|
| Stage 4: Completed Translation |
Please add the following to the bottom of the article to follow GFDL norms:
Example : The last template is to be used to mention the source of a translation from another Wikipedia (again, to respect GFDL norms): |

- ^ Explanation : If the translation takes a while, the original article risks having changed quite a bit throughout, making the translation and eventual proofreading problematic.
You can avoid this problem thanks to the Permanent link function, which appears in the toolbox at the lower left of every page.
