The way I understand moinmoin, you need to create a new wiki page with
the translated content. This is typically done by also translating the
page name itself, i.e. if you have an English "MyProject", then you have
a "MeinProjekt" page in German.

Once the translation exist, you can update moinmoin's dictionary page
(the GermanDict page in this case), so that it knows that MeinProjekt is
a German translation of MyProject. With that done, if a German user
accesses MyProject, there will be a toolbar entry to take them to the
German version.

MoinMoin can do even better for the front page, because if the user
accesses the wiki without requesting a specific page, then moinmoin can
itself choose which front page to return. It's chosen based on the
preferred language of the user's browser, and it will search its
dictionary to find what the name of that language's front page is. So
German people would automatically get StartSeite instead of FrontPage.

Then, of course, that front page would contain links to the pages of the
language it is written in. So German users would automatically be served
the German frontpage, and all German pages (like StartSeite) would link
to MeinProjekt where the English pages (like FrontPage) would link to
MyProject.

This scheme, of course, works best if the people putting content into
the wiki are careful not to use acronyms like FAQ as page names.
