Localization projects on Satisfactory Wiki should follow these guidelines. See Help:Translation Guidelines for details about starting and maintaining a localization project.
- Localized pages, as well as image redirects, must be categorized into their respective translation category. This applies to interwiki file redirects too.
- Ensure terminology and translations are consistent both across the wiki localization project and in-game translations. If there is no in-game translation, only maintain consistency across the wiki.
- Rather than localizing multiple pages partially, prioritize localizing fewer pages whole.
- Do not categorize localized pages into EN categories. You may create a localized category and make it a subcategory of the original category (e.g. Category:Items → Category:Items/fr which is a subcategory of Category:Items)
- Edits changing only interlanguage links should be marked as minor.
- Before starting or reviving an inactive localization project, ensure you have sufficient knowledge of maintaining a wiki project (such as how to translate and work with templates), the language in question, and the game for contextual differences for the fictional environment and technologies. Reviving a project by updating 5 pages out of 50 helps, but there are still 45 outdated pages that may confuse or mislead readers due to being outdated or poorly translated.
- A localization project is considered inactive if it has little to no edit activity on any of its pages and is at least 2 major updates behind. Such projects may be deleted as a whole, as it can be assumed that it is easier to start from scratch than try to get together a project whose original maintainer(s) have abandoned it.
