   * As DokuWiki wants to be **standards-compliant**, consider learning about these regarding your language first. You can learn about correct spelling and interpunction from dictionaries or webpages maintained by public institutions.
   * Always **keep the format strings intact**, i.e. identical. Strings like these ''<nowiki>%1$d</nowiki>'' and ''%%<i>%s</i>%%'' and ''%%<strong>Update:</strong>%%''. The word ''Update:'' should be translated but the word ''%%<strong>%%'' **not**.

+To prevent spam, https://translate.dokuwiki.org/ only has languages which exist in the source code DokuWiki. To initiate a new language you can send a pull request with some translated lines or if you do not program you can open an issue in our Bug tracker. Please use ISO 639-1 (2-letter) and ISO 639-3 (3-letter) language code format, see... When accepted the language becomes available for easier translation via the translation tool.
