Deployment of FLORES Machine Translation to Chinese Wikipedia / 在中文维基百科部署FLORES机器翻译功能
您好 Friends!
Apologies as this message is not in your native language, 请帮助翻译至您的语言.
The WMF Language team has added another machine translation (MT) support for the Content Translation in Chinese Wikipedia called FLORES. This means that you can choose to use FLORES machine translation when translating Wikipedia articles to Mandarin using the Content Translation tool.
The FLORES Machine Translation service is provided by an AI research team at Meta through a free for use API key that allows the Content Translation to access the service on the FLORES server for an evaluation trial period. This MT is set as optional; in your Wikipedia, which means you can choose not to use it as your preferred initial translator. If you decide to use this service, you can select "FLORES" from the "Initial Translation" dropdown menu where you will find other existing machine translation services on the sidebar.
The Wikimedia Foundation has worked out an agreement that allows the use of FLORES without compromising Wikipedia’s policies about attribution of rights, your privacy as a user, and brand representation. You can find more information about the FLORES Machine translation on this page.
Please note that the use of the FLORES MT is optional. However, we would want your community to:
- use it to improve the quality of the Machine Translation service; and
- provide feedback about its quality and ask any questions you might have about this addition.
We trust that this addition is a good support to the Content Translations tool towards having better quality articles in Chinese Wikipedia.
Thank you!

您好朋友们!
很抱歉这则消息并非以你们的本地语言写成,请帮助翻译至您的语言。
WMF语言团队在中文维基百科的内容翻译功能中添加了一个新的机器翻译提供商选项:FLORES。这意味着您可以在利用内容翻译工具将其他语言的条目翻译至现代标准汉语时选择使用FLORES机器翻译。
FLORES机器翻译服务由Meta公司的人工智能研究团队提供,内容翻译工具使用他们提供的一个免费API key在评估期内访问FLORES的服务器。这个机器翻译是可选的;在本维基百科中,你可以选择不将其设置为你的首选初始翻译。如果你决定使用该服务,你可以在侧边栏的“初始翻译”的下拉菜单中选择“FLORES”。初始翻译菜单也同时列出了本站可用的其他机器翻译提供商。
基金会已经与Meta达成了协议,允许在不会影响维基百科的署名权方针、您作为使用者的隐私、商标展示方法的情况下使用FLORES。前往此页阅读关于FLORES机器翻译的更多资讯。
请注意使用FLORES机器翻译是可选的。然而,我们希望社群可以:
- 使用该机器翻译来提高机器翻译服务的质量;且
- 针对其质量提供反馈,并提出您关于这次新功能的加入的任何问题。
我们相信这个新功能的加入能更好地支撑内容翻译工具令中文维基百科的条目质量变得更好。
谢谢!

- 不是反对机翻吗?--0906(回复请Ping我) 2022年2月11日 (五) 16:42 (UTC)
- 社群一些人不喜欢机翻,WMF不一定--Milky·Defer 2022年2月11日 (五) 18:21 (UTC)
- 应该反对的是质量低下的翻译。早期机翻质量普遍不高,从而Wikipedia:翻译指引会有“请勿使用机器翻译翻译条目”的说法。如今我认为机器翻译不能直接等同低劣翻译,只要是高质量的翻译无论是否借助机翻都应该欢迎。--Wcam(留言) 2022年2月11日 (五) 19:04 (UTC)
- 机器翻译是辅助,还需要人工进行修饰。最终更重要是避免WP:翻译腔。——Sakamotosan路过围观 | 避免做作,免敬 2022年2月12日 (六) 03:36 (UTC)
- 实在不懂为何基金会长期致力于推动这种机翻工具,大多数条目根本上就不应使用机翻工具编写(少数格式句法非常固定且内容单纯的条目可能例外),一来即使现在机翻的品质已比过去好得多,肯定仍会产生大量误译与翻译腔,难以想像机翻润饰可以写出像样的条目来;二来,我认为即使机翻能做到完美无误也不应使用,因为这是鼓励编者仅仰赖外文版本,在自己不查阅额外文献、不做额外研究的情况下写作条目,即使翻译过程准确无误,仍会把外文版本原文本身的错误移植过来(英文版很多条目的质量其实是很差的,有些内容缺乏更新,有些直接是错的,优特条目以外根本不应该直接翻译过来)。--Sanchytriomycota🧬 2022年2月12日 (六) 03:54 (UTC)
- 这在不同语言有不同的情况。例如日耳曼语族之间、罗曼语族之间、斯拉夫语族之间的机器翻译通常是靠谱的。--Sanmosa A-DWY3 2022年2月12日 (六) 04:51 (UTC)
- 似乎基金会也想致力于实现一个单一语源的维基项目通过生成翻译等方式实现其他语区的内容同步来保证内容质量,因为有好几个语区出现类似社群劫持的方式来导致内容质量“有问题”。--以上未签名的留言由Cwek(讨论|贡献)于2022-02-12T05:47:22加入。
- 个人意见:机翻得好的前提是当事人大致看懂原文,只有几个字不懂,之后再在机翻的前提下把句子润色(有时候,机翻所用的字眼可能比当事人所想的要好),或自行在机翻后重写一次句子(修理翻译腔问题)。如不确定有关字眼的准确性,应再配合几个线上辞典网站。(上述意见不适用于生科等专业领域)--S叔 2022年2月12日 (六) 06:56 (UTC)
- 机翻润色党路过。--洛普利宁 2022年2月19日 (六) 09:32 (UTC)
