fetchTranslations

fetchTranslations(pageName)

Returns

• Nomenclature data for a given article.

Examples

#	Input	Output
The returned data includes translations of synonyms as well. For example, requesting translations of Zora Armor (BotW and TP term) also returns translations of Zora Tunic (OoT term).
1	fetchTranslations("Zora Armor")	{ { translation = "Zora Armor", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "enBr", }, { translation = "ゾーラの鎧&nbsp;(''Zōra no yoroi'')", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "ja", }, { translation = "卓拉鎧甲&nbsp;(''Zhuō lā kǎijiǎ'')", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "zhT", }, { translation = "Zora-pantser", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "nl", }, { translation = "Armure Zora", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "frC", }, { meaning = "Zora armor", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", translation = "Armure zora", language = "frF", }, { translation = "Zora-Rüstung", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "de", }, { translation = "Armatura Zora", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "it", }, { translation = "조라의 갑옷&nbsp;(''Joraui gabot'')", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "ko", }, { translation = "Доспехи зора&nbsp;(''Dospekhi zora'')", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "ru", }, { translation = "Armadura zora", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "esS", }, { translation = "Armadura zora", game = "BotW", term = "Zora Armor", language = "esL", }, { meaning = "Zora Clothes", game = "OoT", language = "ja", term = "Zora Armor", translation = "ゾーラの服&nbsp;(''Zōra no Fuku'')", reference = "<i>''[[Nintendo Official Guidebook—The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]''</i> (Shogakukan) pg. 149", }, }
Requesting Wood (Character) should not return translations of the Wood item in Breath of the Wild.
2	fetchTranslations("Wood (Character)")	{ { translation = "ウッド&nbsp;(''Uddo'')", language = "ja", game = "ST", term = "Wood", reference = "''[[The Legend of Zelda: Encyclopedia|Encyclopedia]]'', TOKYOPOP, pg. 286 <sup>(<b><span title=\"Spirit Tracks\" class=\"explain\" style=\"color:yellow\">ST</span></b>)</sup>", }, }
Conversely, requesting Wood should only return translations of the item, not the character.
3	fetchTranslations("Wood")	{ { meaning = "Bundle of Firewood", game = "BotW", term = "Wood", translation = "薪の束&nbsp;(''Maki no Taba'')", language = "ja", }, { translation = "木柴束&nbsp;(''Mùchái shù'')", game = "BotW", term = "Wood", language = "zhT", }, { translation = "Brandhout", game = "BotW", term = "Wood", language = "nl", }, { meaning = "Wood fagot", game = "BotW", term = "Wood", translation = "Fagot de bois", language = "frF", }, { translation = "Holzbündel", game = "BotW", term = "Wood", language = "de", }, { translation = "Fascio di legna", game = "BotW", term = "Wood", language = "it", }, { translation = "장작 묶음&nbsp;(''Jangjak mukkeum'')", game = "BotW", term = "Wood", language = "ko", }, { translation = "Дрова&nbsp;(''Drova'')", game = "BotW", term = "Wood", language = "ru", }, { translation = "Montón de leña", game = "BotW", term = "Wood", language = "esL", }, }

Examples

#	Input	Output
4	fetchTranslationsByDataPage("Data:Translations/TLoZ/Characters", { limit = 2 })	{ { jaM = "Fairy", de = "Feen", term = "Fairy", jaR = "<i>[[The Legend of Zelda|''The Legend of Zelda'']]</i> manual, pg. 46", game = "TLoZ", ru = "N/A", nativeterm = "Fairy", deR = "<i>''[[The Legend of Zelda: Encyclopedia|Encyclopedia]]''</i> (TOKYOPOP) pg. 120", ja = "妖精&nbsp;(''Yōsei'')", deM = "Fairies", }, { ja = "ハイリア人&nbsp;(''Hairia-jin'')", game = "TLoZ", term = "Hylian", nativeterm = "Hylian", jaR = "<i>''[[The Legend of Zelda: Encyclopedia|Encyclopedia]]''</i> (Tokuma Shoten Publishing) pg. 10", }, }
