*MoodleDocs in other languages will enable many people to be involved in creating documentation, rather than just a select few.
*Each version will contain the language code in the URL e.g. docs.moodle.org/es/..., docs.moodle.org/de/... etc.
*[http://moodle.org/help.php?file=index.html Moodle help files] will remain in each [[MoodleDocs and lang packs|language pack]] for those using Moodle locally without an Internet connection.
*All documentation contributions should be encouraged, including creating new pages i.e. contributors should not be restricted to only translating English pages.
*Essential documentation should be decided upon and assigned to a [[:Category:Core|core category]]. All these pages should be translated.
*[[:Category:Core|Core category]] pages should have interlanguage links.
*'''Translation will be multi-directional''' i.e. not just translation from English into other languages (e.g. a Spanish developer writes documentation in Spanish which is then translated into other languages).
*MediaWiki page titles are the same as the last part of the URL, however these may be translated by moving the page and so creating a redirect e.g. docs.moodle.org/nl/Metacourses moved to docs.moodle.org/nl/Koepelcursus.
