The task is to create a substantial amount of content in UZH's Semantic Wiki using the MGL "mixture" version. For instance, a repository of fundamental definitions and theorems from high school / undergraduate algebra / calculus.

It could be restricted to languages you have immediate control over: English, Catalan, Spanish, Italian. Aarne will be glad to help add Finnish and Swedish when the main contents have been created for the first four languages.

The main steps are thus:

  • collect the content (in the form of an informal English or other language corpus)
  • extend mixture-MGL so that the content can be expressed
  • fix all bugs in the grammars
  • make it look great in the wiki
  • evaluate the translations with mathematicians speaking the involved languages

Something like 100 sentences should be a reasonable goal, if it captures some well-defined part of mathematics.
