Use these templates on articles with translation-related cleanup issues. 

For articles with merely bad English or non-idiomatic phrases, where the issue isn't necessarily related to ''translation'' specifically, please consider a more general cleanup template as an alternative, such as {{tlx|copy edit}}:
{{copy edit}}


===Templates===
{| class="wikitable mbox-inside"

!Tag
!Text that will be shown (and usage notes)
{{tlrow|cleanup-translation|<Language>|category=Wikipedia articles needing cleanup after translation}}
* For articles that have translation issues, but have enough acceptable English-language content that they are not subject to deletion for that reason.
{{tlrow|no-rough}}
* For user talk pages: similar to a uw-1 level advisory. 
{{tlrow|expand Spanish|source article|category=Articles needing translation from Spanish Wikipedia}}
* For articles in English that can potentially be extended with translated text from the corresponding article in other Wikipedia editions.
* This is an example for Spanish. There is [[:Category:Expand by language Wikipedia templates|a tag for each language]].
{{tlrow|hidden translation|<Language1>|<version-no>|section|category=Wikipedia articles needing cleanup after translation}}
* For translated articles that may have factual errors, but where subsequent edits have polished the English without addressing translation accuracy.
{{tlrow|not English|french<!--<Language-->|article|category=Wikipedia articles needing translation}}
* For articles that are completely or almost completely in a foreign language.
* Note that if the issue isn't dealt with in two weeks, the article goes to [[WP:AFD|Articles for deletion]].
{{tlrow2|Proofreader needed|Deutsche Sprache|de}}
* For articles that are fully translated but that might need proofreading.
{{tlrow|rough translation|<Language1>|<Language2>|article|category=Rough translations}}
* For articles that have been translated into English, but poorly so.
{{tlrow|translated page}}
* Place this ''on the talk page'' when text from another language Wikipedia is translated and included on a page in the English Wikipedia. It serves as [[Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia#Translating from other language Wikimedia Projects|attribution]] under the licence requirements.
* Example: <code><nowiki>{{translated page|source language code|source page title|version=123456789|insertversion=987654321|section=name}}</nowiki></code>
{{tlrow|translatePassage|<Language>|category=Wikipedia articles needing translation}}
* For articles that are mostly in English, but have a considerable sized passage in a foreign language. Consider using {{tl|not English-inline}} instead if the passage is small.
{{tlrow|translation WIP|XX|Foo|category=Articles in translation}}
* For articles currently undergoing translation work.
