I have a website in english that has been listed in the english section for about 6 months.
The main part of the site though is the forum. There I have completed an automatic language detection modification so anyone with a japanese, korean, chinese, french, italian, german, dutch, norwegian, danish or swedish web browser get all the menues, settings and forum information in their own language.

With this setup, is it allowed for me to submit my forum URL to a related category in one of the other languages' sections?

Thank you for your time,

J

Hi Jon,

no, I'm afraid that's not enough. For a site to be listable in a World/ category, the rule of thumb is that somebody who only knows the language of that category should be able to use the site. Since there are no forum discussion threads in any of the languages you mention, the forum wouldn't be listable.

Hope this makes sense,
