Category:Internationalization
I'm thinking about adding some material for translators, about the tools we use such as xgettext and poEdit. I want to explain that we now have wiki-like html in the source code for translation, and that if the translator sees something like:
[[export|Exporting to MP3]]
In the .po file, they should translate the second part, but not the first part.
Should I keep it all in Category:Internationalization or add a new category for translation/translators?

My suggestion would I think be to create a "Translation Help" or similar page in Category:Internationalization which does not contain a great deal of information itself but has descriptive links to pages such as help for those translating the Audacity program/website/docs, and a page dealing with what we want people to do about translating Wiki pages themselves. I assume for now that if a particular Wiki page was translated it would be linked to on the Wiki information page for that particular language, and on the English version of the page that had been translated. We might want to add plans for improving the Wiki translation process to that page as I recall you had some ideas.
Or you might want to make two different pages, one for Audacity translations and one for Wiki translations, but both in Category:Internationalization. If those are the only two useful distinctions, that might be best. In either case we'd probably want to link to the page about Wiki translation help on MultiLingual and in the Multilingual panel at the bottom of the Wiki home page.
