Template:Bad translation

A "bad translation" flag used to indicate outdated or inaccurate translations.

Usage

This template should be added at the beginning of outdated or inaccurate article translations. Ensure to cite specific concerns with the first argument and possibly also on the flagged article's discussion page.

{{Bad translation|reason}}

You can override the default discussion page with a second optional argument:

{{Bad translation|reason|Talk:Alternative Page}}

Alternatively you can point to a specific section in the default talk page with the named section parameter:

{{Bad translation|reason|section=Section name}}

Flagged pages can be found in Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Bad translation or in Category:Pages or sections flagged with Template:Bad translation. If familiar with the language, users are encouraged to participate to resolve the issue. The {{Bad translation}} flag should be removed after the translation is updated and corrected.

Note: The talk page is linked through an external link: this is to avoid polluting Special:WantedPages when the talk page does not exist.

Example

{{Bad translation|This is just a demonstration template.}}
