+==== Translator Troubleshooting ====
+If Zotero fails to import high-quality data from a site that you think should be supported, first check whether you're experiencing a general problem by trying to save an article from Wikipedia or a book from Amazon. If that doesn't work either, see [[Troubleshooting Translator Issues]]. You're having trouble with a specific site, report it in the [[/forum|Zotero Forums]] along with the exact URL you're trying.
