Needs info about multi linguaglism policy[edit]

Undersigned is a Wikipedian from Language Marathi.Few of fellow Marathi Language Wikipedians want to work/contribute on species in language Marathi.
  1. My impression is Only main page is to be translated here at wikispecies and rest of pages we need to have in Particular Language in this case on Marathi Wikipedia, is my impression correct ?
  2. Or we are free to create pages in Language Marathi in Wikispecies itself?
  3. What is multilingual policy here?
Thanks and Regards

For taxon pages, there really shouldn't be much of any language (Latin/scientific names being the obvious exception). As for the headings like "Taxonavigation" and "Name", well I'm planning to implement some auto-translation for those via the MediaWiki namespace (using {{int:}}). We use this on Commons a lot. However this would be done by bot and wouldn't affect how you edit 'species too much (you'll still use English, but instead of ==Taxonavigation== it would be =={{int:Taxonavigation}}== and the readers will see it in whatever language their interface is in). Any help pages or policy pages of course can be translated. Rocket000 22:47, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
