Microsoft Research has launched multilingual content creation tool for Wikipedia, WikiBhasha that enables Wikipedia users and contributors to explore and source content from English Wikipedia articles, to translate the content into a set of target languages, and to use the content with user additions and corrections for contribution to the target language Wikipedia.
Wikibhasha offers an easy to use, intuitive user interface, and enables easy and quick translation of articles from English to more than 30 other languages that are supported by Microsoft’s Machine Translation system and Microsoft’s Collaborative Translation Framework.
In order to use the service, install the WikiBhasha beta bookmarklet in your browser (supports IE and Firefox), login to Wikipedia and edit your preferences to support the Wikibhasha tool (details here)
