:::{{ping|Otvm}} I made a [https://www.reddit.com/r/NonBinary/comments/7r2324/nonbinary_wiki_in_other_languages/ post on reddit] and some users said they were interested in opening a new version in their language. There's French, Spanish, Polish and German (although there's already a [https://nibi.space Nonbinary Wiki in German], not related to us). I think that, for the moment, opening a Polish version is a good idea. The users seems really enthusiastic abut it. The next one could be in Spanish, as I also speak it. I'll send a message to [[User:Falkirks|Falkirks]] to see if it's possible to have a pl.nonbinary.wiki domain. --[[User:NeoMahler|NeoMahler]] ([[User talk:NeoMahler|talk]]) 17:26, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

::::{{ping|NeoMahler}} Could https://nonbinary.wiki/ be a page which redirects people to their various languages while the actual website is moved to https://en.nonbinary.wiki/? It could be somewhat more friendly. I can also translate part of the wiki into Norwegian, but it could be slow. I also wanted to ask this: Should the name Nonbinary Wiki be translated, or would it be less confusing to leave the wiki name so it is identical to the website address? --[[User:Otvm|Otvm]] ([[User talk:Otvm|talk]]) 15:34, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

:::::{{ping|Otvm}} well, I suppose we could do that... but it would be difficult and unstable (because we don't own the servers where the wiki is hosted, so would have to use another hosting service which basically means money). I agree that it would be better, but I don't think it's necessary for now. If we ever get bigger with a lot of language versions, then we could reconsider it.
:::::The Polish version has been created with the name [https://pl.nonbinary.wiki/wiki/Strona_główna Niebinarna Wiki]. I don't think it is a good idea to maintain the English name, specially if the language has already a word for "nonbinary" (and most do, because it's just a compound form of no + binary). --[[User:NeoMahler|NeoMahler]] ([[User talk:NeoMahler|talk]]) 18:26, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
