The RAW ran a great (fake) Wikipedia:Baby Globe interview that we could translate and republish: w:fr:Wikipédia:Regards_sur_l'actualité_de_la_Wikimedia#Ses_goûts,_sa_Wikimania,_sa_prochaine_tournée..._:_Baby_Globe_nous_dévoile_tout_! - Wil540 art (talk) 13:57, 7 August 2026 (UTC)reply
- I've posted a rough translation here. Warning: I am not a Francophone, rely on the translation at your own risk. ☆ Bri (talk) 00:47, 8 August 2026 (UTC)reply
- We've dealt with a similar situation before at Cherchez une femme. I'd asked a couple of reasonable translators to check or redo the machine translation after they had already made a couple suggestions. They did very well with just a few more changes. Notice that no translation is perfect. For one thing a perfect translator would need to be perfectly fluent in both languages. (I'm not perfectly fluent in even one!) But I'd prefer that if there are "mistakes" translating into English that it reflects the French understanding, rather than the English - leave it closer to the author's intention.

- I'm natively francophone (Canadian version), I could look into this and other translations (below). In my experience, machine translation between French and English is pretty accurate, so there likely wouldn't much to do save read and adjust tone/nuances.
