== Translation ==
To translate a page into a different language, create a new page by adding the ''/lang'' postfix, where lang is the language code for the translation. For example, the translation of [[User Manual/Introduction]] in German is in [[User Manual/Introduction/de]].
At the bottom of the page, add the ''<nowiki>{{Languages}}</nowiki>'' template (see [[Template:Languages]]). If it is the first translation for that page, you will also need to add the template to the english page.
'''Note:''' There seems to be a small bug in the template for the moment with the detection of the page. If the bar does not have the correct list of languages, you can specify the page explicitly in the template:
<nowiki>{{Languages|User Manual/Introduction}}</nowiki>
The page name given to the template should always be the english page.
