Template:Need to translation

Template Description

This template is used to mark pages or content that require translation.

It adds a notification box and automatically categorizes the page under Category:Pages needing translation. When the template is added and saved, it will automatically sign the contributor.

Parameter Description

Parameter Name	Type	Description
tag	Optional	When set to "fullpage": Changes the notification text to "This page's content has been updated" Removes width limitation (displays full width) Used for cases where the whole page has been extensively modified. If only a section is modified, do not use this parameter. When enabled, it must be placed at the top of the page instead of within a modified section.
site / Source Language	Required	The source language site of the content needing translation (zh/en/ja).
pagename / Source Page	Required	The title of the page needing translation on the source language site.
oldid / Source Version	Required	The page's revision ID (timestamp) on the source language site at the time this template is added.

How to Retrieve the Timestamp

1. Click the "History" button on the source page.
2. Select the latest revision.
3. Copy the number after "oldid=" in the URL (e.g., oldid=12345).
