  1. Click here to make an account if you do not have one already.
  2. Once you have an account copy and paste this make https://binab.makes.org/thimble/knowledge-base-take-8 in a new browser window.
  3. Click the Remix button to create your own make that you will begin to translate.

You should now have a window with a text editor full of code on the left and the slides on the right. Thimble Window Most of the content in the slides are from these articles: Anatomy of a Knowledge Base Article How To Write Knowledge Base Articles

The text that needs translation is the all black plain text (not bolded text). The first line that needs translation is line 11 in the editor window. It reads "Knowledge Base".

Then you will move on to the slide content. Each slide is marked with "<-- 'slide description' -->" at the beginning. If the slide has an image that is not translatable and isn't critical for the tutorial delete the full slide from the start div tag to the ending div tag.

The first slide begins on line 23. Translate what is in black on line 25 and line 29.
