This is WackoWiki, and there are some good news for you:
1. WackoWiki supports as many ((/Dev/Translations language schemes)) as you dare to write to.
===Create your own language scheme===
WackoWiki language files are separated from code and stored in the **lang/** sub-folder. If you untar/unzip ((/Download installation pack)), you will surely find one. There, in that very folder, you`ll find **wacko.en.php**, **wacko.ru.php** & some more files for other languages (one at the writing time).
* ##lang/wacko.en.php##
If you want to create your own language scheme, perhaps for Finnish or Urdu, you need to do the next three simple actions:
1. Copy one of the existing schemes (that one you most familiar with) to a new file (**wacko.fi.php** for Finnish, for example)
2. Open your newly created file and edit it, changing values after "##=>##" into something meaningful in target languages. (oh, it would be a time sink)
3. Adapt the array (**wacko.fi.php** for Finnish, for example) for you language scheme
%%
'lang_scheme' => [
'name' => 'Finnish',
'code' => 'fi',
'dir' => 'ltr',
'locale' => 'fi_FI.UTF-8',
],
%%
When finished point 3, your language scheme is complete & it will automatically appear in your user settings as a choice for !!language!!.
If you want to use your language scheme as default in your Wacko installation, simply change the ##language## parameter in your ((Configuration configuration)) via the ((AdminPanel Admin panel)).

Note that if you want to have installer of WackoWiki works with your language, you also need to translate:
* ##setup/lang/inserts.en.php##
* ##setup/lang/installer.en.php##
Admin panel
* ##admin/ap.en.php##
WikiEdit
* ##js/lang/wikiedit.en.js##
If you are done creating scheme for language not yet listed on this page, it would be great & honorous to ((https://wackowiki.org/bugs/ send us)) your language file (**wacko.fi.php** according to the example above) -- so we could add one more language into ((/Download installation pack)) and make WackoWiki one step more international.
The easiest way to create a new language scheme is to copy an existing (see [[/Org/Tools/Repository Repository]]) one and edit it.
