- Hi! I'd like to get a current version of mw:Help:VisualEditor/User guide/nl to the Dutch Wikipedia, but currently it is only about half translated. Could you please look over that page, and see if you can help us get a good version ready? Thanks! --Elitre (WMF) (talk) 16:53, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Elitre, I'll take a look at it this evening or tomorrow! - Kthoelen (talk) 17:12, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
- There we go: fully translated and updated with new screenshots :) - Kthoelen (talk) 14:17, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks again, that was awesome. Since you already got a barnstar for your hard work, I'll go ahead and be the impudent person who keeps asking favors :) If you only have time for one more translation this month, please consider the Help:TemplateData page for that. There are not so many templates with TemplateData information on nl.wp :( and I suspect that explaining to people how to add that information, especially now that the new TD editor is available, will change that. Best, --Elitre (WMF) (talk) 21:19, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
- Don't mind asking me favors ;) I'll see to it sometime next week (this one is quite busy...) - Kthoelen (talk) 21:29, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
