Title:

Titles should start with rosettaproject, followed by an underscore and the three-letter ISO language code, followed by another underscore and The Rosetta Project's document type shorthand (gen for Genesis 1-3, undec for the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and swadesh for the Swadesh list), followed by a hyphen and the translation version number. Following are some examples (a visual guide can be found here; email laine@longnow.org if you have questions):

•  rosettaproject_fra_gen-1 : the first translation of Genesis in French
•  rosettaproject_fra_gen-2 : the second translation of Genesis in French
•  rosettaproject_fra_undec-1 : the first translation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in French
•  rosettaproject_fra_swadesh-3 : the third translation of the Swadesh list in French

To find out whether your translation is the first, second, third, or eightieth in the collection, try entering the title with a version number of 1. If that version number already exists in the archive, a warning will show up in italics beneath the text box suggesting a new identifier; add one to the version number and try again until the title you've chosen is marked as "available." If you can't figure out which version your translation should be, email laine@longnow.org.

Description:

• Name (real or alias)
• Dialect & region
• Orthography used
• Special circumstances surrounding translation (untranslatable tenses, idioms, etc.)

Keywords:

• The name of your language (e.g., "French") as given in the ISO code list (omit commas; e.g., "Arabic, Standard Egyptian Spoken" becomes "Standard Egyptian Spoken Arabic")
• Its ISO 639-3 code (e.g., "fra")
• The type of text you're submitting (e.g., "Genesis," "Universal Declaration of Human Rights," or "Swadesh list")
