How to localize a landing page

Find the language version you need for example:

 http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/WMFJA1/es

edit the page (if you add ?action=edit to the end of the page name, such as:
```
 http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/WMFJA1/es?action=edit 
```

go to the page you want to create using the form Landigpage/languagecode/countrycode. For example:
```
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/WMFJA1/es/ES 
```

look for the name of the 'Donate now' template . It will look like:
```
 {{2010/Donate-now6B 
```

change that to go to 6localized. So that it looks like
```
 {{2010/Donate-now6localized 
```

Change the ask string amounts. There are 4 to change which look like
```
 | donate-amount-0 = {{{alternate-amount-x|55}}} 
```

All you need to change is the # after the | -so using above example and changing 55 to 30 it would say:
```
 | donate-amount-0 = {{{alternate-amount-0|30}}} 
```

You're done!
