We are now using the standard translation system that is also used in 
Wikipedia. Our own summarised instructions for using it are here: 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/TDF_Wiki/Multilingual#Content_with_global_focus

The markers are added automatically. They should not be copied manually.

I quote from the article:
"When you add or change content in the source page, this will appear at 
the top of the page: This page has changes since it was last marked for 
translation. Click the link "marked for translation" to bring the 
translation system up to date following the same process as in the 
initial marking for translation."

To learn absolutely everything about the system, consult this page and 
navigate the links in the right-hand sidebar:
