This version of relgen hosted on Tool Forge has largely been superseded by a JS-based version available directly on Wikimedia Commons. For more information, please refer to the Village pump announcement or the relgen.js source code. The relgen express functionality documented below is not available in relgen.js, and all versions of relgen on Tool Forge will remain available for the foreseeable future.

How can I translate relgen into a different language?
Since different language editions of Wikimedia projects have different release templates and procedures there will be no translation interfaces, however, you may manually add a duplicate of index.php (named i18n/[ISO 639-1 code].php) with all texts in the language of your choice to the repository through a pull request. Please make sure the language has an ISO 639-1 code before translating and keep in mind that the tool is still very much a work in progress.
