(el) Greek version?[]
Hello, I want to create a version in Greek. I read what is needed exactly and found the pages that need to be translated, as mentioned on the page Memory Alpha:Start a new edition in another language.
What I couldn't find, however, is where these translations need to be done and in which environment. Is there a specific page or topic where I can start the translations?
Thank you in advance for your responses. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Olympios Zeus (talk • contribs) at 18:14, 3 August 2023 (UTC).
- Just make a copy of each page you intend to translate under your user page for now, i.e. "User:Olympios Zeus/whatever". Once the translations are complete, we'll move them to the proper language namespace. Good luck! -- Renegade54 (talk) 20:01, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
(et) Estonian version?[]
Hello. I'm a Star Trek fan form Estonia and I thought that it would be nice to popularise ST more in Estonia and whilst the Memori Alpha portal is the biggest information source for Star Trek, I will start to translate MA into Estonian and hope if enyone who is estonian or can speak and write in Estonian to contact me and then we can collaborate and work together to make the things work.

(hr) Croatian version?[]
An initial attempt at the beginnings of a Croatian version can be found here. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Renegade54 (talk • contribs) at 18:04, 10 March 2015 (UTC).
(tlh) Klingon version?[]
I suggest we create a user project to translate MA into Klingon and convert the Esperanto wiki to that language. Wouldn't it be more sensible for a Star Trek site to have Klingon? Weyoun 21:00, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
- A possible "MA/Klingon" should use the fake language code for the Klingon language (tl/tlh), not misuse the Esperanto one. Anyway, I don't see much potential for that... -- Cid Highwind 21:13, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- i read somewhere that there are 2 million speakers of eo and 700,00 or so speakers of tl. Now, i don't know about the ratios of star trek fans that know eo, but its safe to assume that its a small minority. Everyone who speaks tl is a star trek obsessive, beyond even most of us here. Which makes more sense to have as a language? (And i acknowledge that a Klingon language version would prolly be as active as Esperanto, but at least Klingon is logical. Also, we could prolly bug the KLI for some help if we wanted to. I'm sure someone would pounce on it.) --6/6 Neural Transceiver 09:22, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- P.S. the idea of Esperanto being a real language and Klingon being a fake are mutually exclusive. They are both constructed languages, with full syntaxes, and vocabularies. the only difference is the REASON thy were created. --6/6 Neural Transceiver 09:22, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- For all those people that don't know, there is a former Klingon wiki. It is no longer a wiki but just an encyclopedia. The Wikimedia Foundation did not allow the Klingon wiki, so why would they allow subwiki of Klingon on anther site. I do not see a reason for making a subwiki on Memory alpha based in Klingon when they have a perfectly good one, on MA. Plus the link to the wiki is permanently placed under information on the home page of Memory alpha, so anyone that comes to MA will be forwarded to the Klingon encyclopedia if they read through the first page. – Randomname 20:45, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
- First of all, a better way to get to the Klingon wiki is via the internal link w:c:klingon. Second of all, it most certainly is still a wiki and still editable. Third, Wikimedia had nothing against the Klingon encyclopedia (or Klingon Wikipedia), they just felt it wasn't consistent with their mandate and goals (for a variety of reasons). Fourth, Wikimedia has nothing to do with Memory Alpha or any of the other Wikia wikis - Wikimedia and Wikia are two totally separate entities, with two separate sets of goals and reasons for being. Wikimedia has nothing to say about a Klingon wiki on another site, and I believe they probably couldn't care less about the matter. Fifth, if and when a Klingon version is created (and that would only happen if there were enough Klingon-fluent editors available to support said version), it really wouldn't be any different than any of the other language versions of MA - basically the same articles and structure as MA/en, just translated to Klingon. It would be a Star Trek encyclopedia in Klingon. The Klingon Encyclopedia is a completely different entity - it's a general encyclopedia in Klingon, just as Wikipedia is a general encyclopedia in English and many other languages (just not Klingon any more). And yes, there's a link to the Klingon Encyclopedia at the bottom of the MA main page... but what's your point? If there ever is a Klingon version of MA (MA/tl or MA/tlh), there would be interwiki links on the left in the "in other languages" box just as there is for all the other languages. This would, again, have nothing to do with the Klingon Encyclopedia, but with MA. All clear? :) -- Renegade54 00:00, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Redux[]
- From "A Klingon Version of Memory Alpha"
Ok, how about a virson of Memory Alpha but it is in the Klingon language. I can translate (some). --From TrekkyStar Live Long and Prosper 00:37, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not sure there will be enough support for this. We have a number of real world language versions that are abandoned, and even the Mirror Universe version (which is English) has essentially been abandoned. I don't think the Klingon version would have any better a fate. --OuroborosCobra talk 01:17, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
