[Slackdocs] Introduction + first ideas

[zithro (RabbiT)]

I'm not sure to understand the last part of your message.

The first part I think i do, if the link points to an already translated
article in my language, i point to it by adding "language:"

But the last part makes me struggle "The advantage of keeping the
*original* links intact, is that every original link will still work in
your translated page... they just point to the english version. Anyone can
then decide that they do not like the english text in an italian wiki and
start working on a translation"
You mean that if there is only an english version, i keep the link to the
english version (until someone provides a translation) ?
