This problem has been resolved, thank you.

Automatic translation from english into serbian is not forking, it displays "Automatic translation failed" each time I click to translate the paragraph.

This issue is being tracked at: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T328143

Resolved, the Machine Translation works well now. Thank you for being patient.

I cannot add a translation paragraph in the 'Content Translation' tool, because I get a notification saying 'Automatic Traslation failed'. I have no way to turn off machine translation, so I can't add the paragraph either. I am trying to translate the "Dwight Hooker" page from the English wiki to the Italian wiki.

Same here. Trying to translate several articles from English to Spanish and end up having the same error everytime.

Same on bnwiki. @Pginer-WMF: Can you take a look?

I have the same problem.

Same problem with me

Same in translating to italian

I get the same error trying to translate Kirsten Zickfeld from English to Swedish.

Same here, cannot translate paragraphs if they contain links: from en, ru, he to uk

Same

Same - Workers' Party (Brazil) - english > slovak

We have all the same problem. Content translation does not work anymore. What has happened? Can you repair it? (well, it ist not very important, because the tool could not do very much.)--~~~~

Hello all,

Sorry about this problem, it is being worked on and you can track progress in this ticket. Thank you for your patience.

One strange thing is, that it still works from de to fr - but where in the fr version on the right hand side the automated translated French text appears. "Anything to de" does not work, either. Can it be a problem that the problem occurs only on those wikipediae where not automated translation available, but only copy and paste of the original language with adjusting the links and templates?

I just tested a translation to en via the tool, which seems to work, although no automated translation is available there. It seems to have no influence on the problem. De to en works in paragraphs even with links.

I have the same problem: cannot translate paragraphs if they contain links: from en, de to uk

The automatic translation fail has been resolved. Thank you for your patience.

I am getting automatic translation fail, I can even write manually

I have the same problem.

yes

Se mantiene el fallo en la traducción en > es, solo funciona en los títulos

I have the same problem while trying to translate from English to Hebrew

Me too since yesterday 28/01/2023

El problema continua :s

I am experiencing the same issue as of 30/1/2023.

I think it is translating to every language in my case is English to Quechua

目前谷歌的中英互译优化已经做得很好，可以达到非英语专业大学生水平，因而我认为中英互译时1%修改是不必要的，应当降低到0.1%或者0.2%。

Google translation between Chinese and English has been optimized fairly well at present, and it can reach the level of students in university not majoring in English, so I think editing 1% content for translation between Chinese and English is not necessary and the least proportion of edited content should be decreased to 0.1% or 0.2%.
