I'm in the process of updating articles on the English version of the PGVWiki. One of the things I'd like to do, is to get a pretty good list of "Language Go To" people for the different languages supported and used by PhpGedView users.

A Language Go To (LGT) person is someone involved in translating anything to do with PhpGedView (the software itself or the PGVWiki) from English to another language. Being able to easily identify such people will help tremendously in co-ordinating translation efforts.

I'm in the process of setting up some categories and wiki templates in the English version of the PGVWiki to make the task of adding yourself as a LGT very easy. All you need to do is the following:

1) Create a login on the English PGVWiki site if you don't have one ready
2) Go to your user page. This would be something like:
http://wiki.phpgedview.net/en/index.php/User:<your username>
3) Edit the page using the "edit" tab at the top of the page
4) Add the following text to your user page (substituting <lang code> for the two letter ISO 639-1 language code) and click "save page" at the bottom
{{user <lang code>|LGT=yes}}

For example, if you are a native French speaker and are involved in PGV translations simply enter the following into your English PGVWiki user page:
{{user fr|LGT=yes}}

You are also encouraged (but not necessary) to provide some other useful info on your user page, such as your real name and possibly some contact information.

Don't worry if after saving, you get some red text like:
Template:user_fr

I'll go round and create any missing templates and do any clearing up/wikifying pages

Cheers
