Communication problem regarding different languages

Question

I am having a problems with communication regarding my family tree as it is coming up in an asian language.

Today the view of my family tree page went from a view where I thought I lost connection links.  Then when I went into another lineage, I did find some of the names only to not be able to read the now new different language (initially I thought wikitree had been hacked) of people that I have no possibility of following up because there is no translation tool to help bridge the communication gap can you help me please?  regards Jenn.   the url is https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Connection&action=connect&person1Name=%E6%A3%AE-29&person2Name=Rogers-12320&relation=0&ignoreIds=

Answer 1

The profile you are showing the connection to is for a "first Lady" from Japan. The profile and at least 12 others in the chain are written in Japanese. To read those profiles you would have to use a translation tool like Google Translate.

Wikitree is a worldwide tree and people can use their own language (Or the language of the profile they are recording) to create and enhance profiles. There isn't a requirement to have different languages (Such as English) on the profiles especially if a profile represents someone who wouldn't have used English as a language.

In fact, the requirement is to use the spelling that the person themselves would have used, or if they were illiterate, the spelling used in the primary sources. Especially for the LNAB. So, the profiles are done correctly indeed!
