Setting the page id

Question

Our Wiki consists of a number of pagest that we need to translate to other languages.

For this I my idea is to create a separate space for each language, "duplicate" each page from  the original space into the new space and translate it to the appropriate language.

For some reasons we would like to have the same page-id as the original for the duplicated page. So that for example the page that explains "Birne" in the German section as the same page id as the English page that explains "Pear".

Is this possible at all? How could it be accomplished?

Can I export a whole section and import it to a different section while preserving the pageids inside? For example.

Thanks Nic, for the clarification! I'd thought so.

The idea is that we want to reference the correct Wiki-page in an email concerning the product. Depending on the language we want to be able to send the URL for the appropriate page.

But even with some kind of label or page property, we'd never be able to put together the URL "from the outside".

Looks to me as if we needed a database that contains the right page id for each product and each language.

There is no way to do this.  The page ID is the unique identifier for a page, so you can't have two with the same ID.

Best I can think of is some form of label or page property you could add to each page that is a translation.

(If you were on Server, I'd be looking at something like Scroll Translations, but I don't think there's any equivalent for Cloud)
