How to manage translated articles using article status?

Let's assume you have a knowledge base article in English, French, and German. Here's how you can ensure that the article is consistent and updated in all languages.

  1. Open the specific knowledge base article in the primary language; for example, English. 
  2. On the right-pane, under Languages, click Mark other translations as outdated.

    You perform this action each time you update the primary article. This changes the status of the article in all other language as outdated.
  3. Once you make changes to the other language articles (French, German), click Mark<language> as up-to-update.

Note: Ensure to mark the translation as updated in each language article.
