Microsoft Translator

In my experience, Microsoft Translator is more effective for German to English translation than Google Translate. Thoughts on a possible change? Cyborg4 :) (talk) 10:23, 28 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Topic parameter examples?

The Expand French template page has a table of "recognized topics." Could we add that here too? Lugevas (talk) 18:48, 7 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Deepl.com

Now Google is proposed as a tools for translation from German.

"Google's machine translation is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia."

But https://www.deepl.com/translator is a lot more precise for German (and other language)

I propose to change the text like that: "Machine translation like Deepl or Google Translate is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia."

  Done @Gagarine: I have made the change to Template:Expand language which is used for many different languages. Can you confirm that this tool is relevant to all of them, otherwise we could look at reprogramming that template to distinguish between different languages. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 13:07, 18 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

The list of topics on this template is missing Military (code "mil"), and is missing the standard code "transp" for Transport. Numberguy6 (talk) 01:59, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
