The Mysterious Matter of the Missing CafeTran
[edit]I don't know how much of this you may have been following, but there are strange powers at work here on Wikipedia. For several years now, people have been trying to create a page for CafeTran. However, no matter what people do, the page is blocked every step of the way. Now, I know that if you are a professional translator, you will probably have heard of CafeTran by now. Hell, Proz.com, the largest platform for translators in the world offers it for free now as part of their Plus Package!
Anyway, the Wikipedia goblins have since removed ALL traces of all the hard work that we but into trying to create a page for CafeTran. Have a look at what is left:
- https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Cafetran_Espresso
- https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft:Cafetran_Espresso
Then go to:
See: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Comparison_of_computer-assisted_translation_tools
… and look at all the CAT tool that ARE allowed to have their own pages:

- SmartCat (https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/SmartCAT)
- Virtaal (https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Virtaal)
- Wordfast (https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wordfast)
What on earth is going on here?
If CafeTran is not ‘notable’ (I think that was their main reason for now allowing a page about it), then it would stand to reason that most of the above CAT tool articles should also be deleted, right?

- I agree, thats weird. I started translating some months ago, and CafeTran was the software I went to first based on google searches /reading recommendations on reddit 80.208.69.67 (talk) 12:23, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
