Support for more languages

It would be nice if the Wiki supports more languages (for example German).

If there's a resource bundle perhaps I can help with some translations…

You can translate Wikidot Documentation & Help pages. Of course, other users may help you ;). Just create wikidot site e.g. docde.wikidot.com and translate documentation. Something like docpl.wikidot.com - on this site we translate english documentation into polish.

Here is few words from michal frackowiak (wikidot.com creator) about other languages in wikidot.

Indeed. I think it would be very cool to have multilanguage support. In a couple of months there should be an open-source (downloadable) version on Wikidot software that should be prepared for localization. In the best scenario you would only have to translate .po files (gettext) and (hopefully) there will be some people willing to prepare translations. Wikidot.com (the online wiki here) will then incorporate these translations so everyone can use them. Just like Wordpress.com does.

Currently I would rather not distribute .po files yet. They need some clean-up. Just give me some time ;-)

Thanks for your answers.
As a workaround: Is it possible to include some javascript in every page now?
I think of replacing some text using the dom tree. This might be a bad solution but it would work till then…

I think this is not a good solution ;-) In general no JavaScript is allowed into pages unless inside [[embed]] tags (http://www.wikidot.com/doc:embedding). This is also due to security (XSS).

Correct. It'd be a bad workaround - but it would be a workaround indeed :)
For security reason only the administrator may have the right to insert javascript code… But it seems there isn't such a possibility here :-(

Well, using [embed], if I understood correctly, I can include any JavaScript from different sites. Am I wrong or is this just such a XSS security hole?
