Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.
You must provide copyright attribution in the edit summary accompanying your translation by providing an interlanguage link to the source of your translation. A model attribution edit summary is Content in this edit is translated from the existing Swedish Wikipedia article at [[:sv:Bodil Mårtensson (författare)]]; see its history for attribution.

Mårtensson lived for fifteen years in Helsingborg, which is also the site of most of her fiction, which features a recurring staff of Helsingborg investigators, partly and sympathetically modeled after some actual police, who are also consulted for technical and investigatory details. She began writing after her son had been born, with Bertil Mårtensson. They divorced in 2005.[1]
Most of her crime novels have been successfully translated into German and published by Bertelsmann. She has also published a number of popular short stories, all of this since her book debut in 1999. German titles given in parentheses below.
