Content Translation

Wikimedia has made an amazing UI for translating wiki articles, Content Translation, which uses Apertium to provide paragraph-level suggestions for post-editing.

Some info:

Content Translation's format handling

CT has some workarounds for issues with Apertium's HTML Format handling, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_translation/Developers/Markup and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_translation/Product_Definition/LinearDoc The CT code that does this is in https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-services-cxserver/blob/master/lib/mt/MTClient.js#L139 (it might be nice one day to extract that into a standalone tool? see also http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Reordering_superblanks )
