You can access these non-English instances in the upper part of the Wiki:
Up there. You know, that probably would make more sense in English. What was I thinking? Here it is:
.
Okay, I think you got it now. That, of course, will make you wonder, “Where is Turkish, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, and my language?” All good questions. Well, we wanted them and tried. Anyway…
.
On those three non-English instances, a bug was introduced on the TOCs that said in red text, telling us it couldn’t find the TableOfContent.xml file (or something similar to that). It appeared instead of the text, “Table of Contents.” But the actual TOC links were still there.
.
Well, it’s now fixed. The platform team graciously replaced the file, and the message is gone!
.
This is where you ask a question like, “What? You can add a TOC? How in blue tornados do you do that?”
.
Astonishingly, Peter Geelen already wrote you that article: Wiki: How to Automatically Add a Table of Contents (TOC) to a TechNet Wiki Article
.
Yes, it’s on TechNet Wiki (appropriate that an article about the Wiki is on the Wiki). And yes, it has a TOC. The really astonishing part is that I would have written the entire article with only this text:
- Type in “[toc]”.
.
But somehow Peter wrote this really long, excellent article instead. That’s the astonishing part of that article. Enjoy!
.
Now back to the bug. Or actually, the new feature. This is where it gets interesting.
.
Originally, I believe all the TOC text (above the TOC links) said, in English, “Table of Contents”. Even on Russian, Chinese, and Portuguese.
.
So the potential new feature would be more like a second bug fix… translating “Table of Contents” into the appropriate languages.
.
For example, the Portuguese Wiki now has “Table of Contents” translated:
Russian examples:
Chinese example:

I’ll be back with an update!
