Rationale
[edit]Russian (русский язык) is one of the most spoken languages in the World. For more info, see Wikipedia.
Objectives
[edit]- Make a travel guide for Russians, citizens of ex-USSR republics and any other Russian speakers.
According to Wikitravel Language edition policies, every language edition of Wikitravel has to represent a global view. --(WT-en) EmbrunOntario 20:35, 17 August 2006 (EDT)
Name
[edit]Why not translate also the name.
- because that would require a dedicated server
- to reinforce and join forces in the brand wikitravel
Goal
[edit]See the Language version policy for see what it takes to start our own wikitravel

Go-between
[edit]This project needs someone to step forward to be the go-between for Russian. The go-between is responsible for keeping the Russian version of Wikitravel connected to the rest of the projects, by making a monthly report, translated bug reports and feature requests and news, and keeping up-to-date on what's happening with the rest of the site.
Interface file translation
[edit]The interface file for Russian needs to be matched to Wikitravel. References to Wikipedia should be changed to {{SITENAME}} and reference to the GFDL should be changed to the CC by-sa 1.0.
Expedition members can edit the file here: Project:LanguageRu.php. It may be worthwhile to compare here: Project:Language.php for the English version.
