Dutch translation

Hey all!

Since i've been using dokuwiki at work and made the switch from 
mediawiki to dokuwiki at home as well, I felt like contributing a bit 
when Andi posted about this translation tool on irc.

I'm Wouter Schoot, 25 years all. I graduated computer science in 
february and am working fulltime as project manager.

Being Dutch myself, I thought I'd translate some of the langfiles, 
starting with the following three, since nothing has been translated so far.

- lib/plugins/usermanager/lang
- lib/plugins/plugin/lang
- lib/plugins/revert/lang

While translating this file, I stumbled upon:

"To find a list of spammy pages first enter a search string (eg. a
spam URL), then confirm that the found pages are really spam and
revert the edits."

This states somehow that to find a LIST, you need to enter a search 
string, confirm and revert, however, this process restores the pages, 
instead of just giving you a list. I find it a bit of a curiousity but 
English is not my native language so I translated this into Dutch as 
well using this format/syntax.

I would suggest to change it to: "_To revert the spam attack, you can 
use the search box _to find a list of spammy pages. First enter a search 
string (eg. a spam URL), then confirm that the found pages are really 
spam and revert the edits." or something like that.

Re: Dutch translation

Hi,

/me again;

What I also notice is that the word dokuwik is spelled using Dokuwiki, 
dokuwiki and DokuWiki all mixed up. What's the preferred way? I, for 
now, just copy the exact syntax from the English version, which may not 
be the most consisent one. Any thougts?

Re: Dutch translation

Hi, just guessing:

I'd rather use all them as Dokuwiki.

Even, though DokuWiki does not use CamelCase by default, the name is
a typical CamelCase wiki name, so "DokuWiki" is the correct spelling.

I'm not a native english speaker either... are others confused by the
original text as well? Does it need fixing?

  Hi,

  The revert plugin is there to... revert a spam attack, so I don't
  really see why this would have to be repeated in the page. The
  original text is ok for me.
