+==== Updating a Language ====
+If you wish to maintain an existing set of language files, but you are not sure which strings have been recently added, VuFind includes a language tool which will generate lists of missing strings in all supported languages. To access it, turn on [[development:troubleshooting#turn_on_development_mode|development mode]] and then add "/DevTools/Language" to the end of your base URL to access the language report.
+Note also that there are [[administration:command_line_utilities#language_category|language-related command line utilities]] which can help with common maintenance tasks. Most importantly, rather than manually sorting your language files, you can add new/missing strings to the ends, and rely upon the "language normalize" tool to put everything in correct order and format files to project standards.
