Hi @Meneth

Since the wiki will replace definitely the manual (or so I have read), how does this work for other languages? Will the wiki be split or translated somehow? Thanks!
There's 5 translations: German, French, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese (Brazilian), and Russian.
Four of these are live:
http://de.hoi4wiki.com/Hearts_of_Iron_4_Wiki
http://fr.hoi4wiki.com/Hearts_of_Iron_4_Wiki
http://es.hoi4wiki.com/Hearts_of_Iron_4_Wiki
http://pl.hoi4wiki.com/Hearts_of_Iron_4_Wiki
http://pt.hoi4wiki.com/Hearts_of_Iron_4_Wiki

The Russian one will go live soon too. Hopefully later today.
After they're all live, language links (as are shown on the translated versions in their sidebars) will be added to the English wiki.

If you look at the Beginner's Guide in the in-game Wiki, it says the 1939 scenario starts on September 1st. I think there may be other references to this as well. The 1939 scenario actually begins on August 14th (though I've no idea why).

You are probably aware there is currently not a page for Germany in thye game. I was slightly surprised until I realized you were using a third-party server for the Wiki and those tend to be very cautious about politically-charged content.

Just need someone to make a page. Before release there wasn't enough info for a proper page.

The start date was changed slightly before release. Should be corrected, yeah.
 
That's being discussed internally at the moment.
Thank you! In addition, if it is decided that editing is allowed, will there be versions for EU4, CK2 and Stellaris for the languages in which these games are localised?

EDIT: If not, I might still provide some translations in this thread.
 
No current plans for that.
OK, but what was the motivation behind changing the initial stance and opening HoI4 wikis in foreign language?

We wanted the game to be more approachable, including to people who'd prefer their own language to English.
This works as a pilot project. Depending on how well it goes, we might do more translations in the future.

Is there a master outline'/topic/ TOC page that indicates where different types of content go?


Also I'll mention that someone has to wiki search "template" to (or maybe google does it) to get to the template page I did some work adding to as it has been a hot topic.

The proposal that that page below be merged with army planner might not make sense, but maybe with the division page?


http://www.hoi4wiki.com/Division#Guides with template-related details


http://www.hoi4wiki.com/Land_units general discussion linked to from topics page.

I can line edit by imitating what I see, but would need a pointer to video, manual etc. pinpointing step by step how to move/merge/link to do that part.

Thanks.
 
Thanks again for your great work Meneth, very helpful.
I looked through the list of console commands for something to display province ids in the game similar to tdbg in previous versions but could not find anything! Or did I just miss it?

Please change the TOC entry "Ideas" to "Ideas/Laws" or something similar (have no other ideas) since the obvious place to look for laws is under Government, but it is not there. It is under "Ideas" which is largely about personnel such as experts who have ideas, but not where anyone would expect laws..
