Iacovibus,
I'm glad to hear of your experience on Wikipedia. I've set up mk.orthodoxwiki.org and given you admin status. A few notes here -- extensions are shared among all wikis. Interwiki links are also set in common -- don't spend time updating these through the special pages interface since your changes will be lost. You can let me know if you want anything added or changed. Also, let me know what the name of the copyright page should be, as well as the "OrthodoxWiki" namespace, and I'll fix that setting. You might wish to modify the logo, like bg.orthodoxwiki.org or ru.orthodoxwiki.org has done. Finally, keep in mind that accounts created at EN can be used on all sites, and that images hosted at commons.orthodoxwiki.org can likewise be used at all sites. In time, META.orthodoxwiki.org will become a central place for meta discussion -- for now it's just beginning. I'll also send you an invite to the sysop group (which email is best?). Let me know if you need anything else -- I'm very happy to see this happening.
Yours in Christ,

: Father,
: I've just started working on the mk. localization of OrthodoxWiki. I'll work to translate and set up the core documents as soon as possible.
: I've joined the group, too (from my yahoo account, but redirect the mail to my primary, gmail account). As for now, the Macedonian logo will remain same. The name for the copyright page is Авторски права (in Cyrilic). Concerning the namespace, it would be: Православна-енциклопедија. Again, thank you for the opportunity and support.

::I've made these changes - let me know if you need anything else! — [[User:FrJohn|<b>FrJohn</b>]] ([http://www.orthodoxwiki.org/User_talk:FrJohn&action=edit§ion=new talk]) 10:05, July 18, 2007 (PDT)
::: Thank you, father. As you can see, the process of localization is going on. I have two things to ask.
:::*First of all, can you change the language in the sidebar and the footer? Can Privacy Policy for example be written in Macedonian, as Заштита на личните податоци? And so on... This also implies that in the sidebar, the Navigation toolbox will be Навигација, interaction will become Интеракција and so on... This is mostly because some of the future contributors might have superficial or even zero knowledge of English, and the navigation process could be difficult for them. If it is possible, I will give you the translated words that should replace the current ones.
:::*Then, (and this is connected with the previous one), can you add Трпеза (trapeza in English) link in the interaction part of the sidebar?
:::Also, I am interested about the number of administrators/sysop that one wiki should have. Because in these first stages, I think that it would be appropriate to have one more administrator in the Macedonian version and I strongly recommend that you give a sysop status to Taneski, already registered user. His efficency in maintenance and contributions would be greater in that case.
:::Yours in Christ,

I'm not sure which sysop permissions are required, but you should be able to edit the navigation bar by editing [[mk:МедијаВики:Sidebar]].

:::Thank you father,
:::I just realized that I had a problem with my browser; the sidebars were written in Macedonian when whatching the site with Opera, while due to some cache issues, when viewing it with Firefox - those fields remained in English.
