 >>>>>>>> I'm ok with that. I was thinking to suggest separating application localization tips, anyways. But we'll have to wait for admins.  --- //[[wiki:user:bocke|Bojan Popovic]] 2012/11/19 09:24// >>>>>>>> I'm ok with that. I was thinking to suggest separating application localization tips, anyways.

 +>>>>>>>> The page is not that long. I do not see a reason for splitting it up into sub-pages. The header sectioning should be enough to provide good navigation. \\  --- //[[wiki:user:alienbob|Eric Hameleers]] 2012/11/20 07:31//
 +>>>>>>>>> I was thinking on maybe adding some bits from Gentoo wiki on Unicode, specifically some tips on getting console apps to work. What would be the best way to do this? It shouldn't be too long and might fit into the page.  --- //[[wiki:user:bocke|Bojan Popovic]] 2012/12/01 03:47//
 +>>>>>>>>>> Perhaps just add it to the [[slackware:localization#console|console chapter of the page]] ? \\  --- //[[wiki:user:alienbob|Eric Hameleers]] 2012/12/02 08:16//

 >>>> Ok, now take one last look at the whole page. If you think it sounds ok, we can ask for comments on the mailing list. I would also ask for any contribution from anyone using Slackware in languages that require special input methods (we haven't covered those yet). On the other side, I think the European languages are covered pretty good. --- //[[wiki:user:bocke|Bojan Popovic]] 2012/11/19 09:26// >>>> Ok, now take one last look at the whole page.

 >>>>> Hi Bojan, I have already after my recent changes, written a mail to the site-admins and asked if they plan to divide the page (referring to Erics posting above). I think that languages with special input methods should be focused in the translation. I mean, when anyone translates this page to chinese or persion etc, then he should add what's necessary. And this page should be (as is yet) focus localization in a more generic manner.  --- //[[wiki:user:markush|Markus Hutmacher]] 2012/11/19 09:41// >>>>> Hi Bojan, I have already after my recent changes, written a mail to the site-admins and asked if they plan to divide the page (referring to Erics posting above).

 +>>>>>> Great. Thank you. Considering alternative input methods, I guess the admins will have the last word on that. I'm ok with both options, but personally think a localization article should be international enough. That, of course doesn't mean including individual methods or tips, but rather the general input methods like [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_Common_Input_Method|SCIM]]. --- //[[wiki:user:bocke|Bojan Popovic]] 2012/11/19 10:14//
 +>>>>>>> Ah, I don't know SCIM ;) it should at least be mentioned with a link.  --- //[[wiki:user:markush|Markus Hutmacher]] 2012/11/19 10:41//
 +>>>>>>>> Neither do I, but I'll try to test it and write something about it for sake of completeness.  --- //[[wiki:user:bocke|Bojan Popovic]] 2012/12/01 03:46//
