Updating Translation wikis/notes:

1. https://publiclab.org/wiki/translation - Updated. @jywarren I have replaced the video here as the old video was not available anymore. The current video is more like an introduction to Transifex so if you want I can record a video of translation activity with Public Lab as an example? or, check out https://www.youtube.com/user/TransifexInc/feed and suggest a video which seems relevant.

2. The second page is https://publiclab.org/notes/liz/10-26-2016/how-to-join-public-lab-s-transifex-project a note written by @ebarry. I have some improvements in mind for that. Can I edit that note?

Thanks!

[ebarry]

hi @gauravano i have made you a co-author of that note, please edit as you see fit! Thanks!

[grvsachdeva]

Thanks, @ebarry !!

[grvsachdeva]

Hey @publiclab/community-reps, I have did some changes to Language dropdown and also added new languages, check it out 👇

What do you think about this design? If you like it, I will update the feature. Thanks!

[ebarry]

i like it, and look forward to a future moment when we make the language option more visible :)

[grvsachdeva]

I am thinking of an enhancement -- Suppose a user browses a website from China then using their location we can show this language menu to them in the notice or somewhere at top of the website? What do you think @jywarren @ebarry?

Also, I have updated https://publiclab.org/notes/liz/10-26-2016/how-to-join-public-lab-s-transifex-project note with the latest screenshots.

@ebarry there are some more research notes tagged translation. I will go through all of them and so want to ask can I update wherever necessary? you don't have to go through the trouble of making me co-author at all of them as I already have admin privileges so can edit those notes, but just want to ask a would that be fine with you? Thanks!!

Are the dropdown changes in a feature, and do they need to be added to the live site? Cool!

One thing if you haven't already, is to clearly show people how to enable the "see translation prompts everywhere" setting -- which, ok it was a while ago -- i think was driven from a profile tag? We could advertise this and get some language growth going, then consider switching it from an opt-in to an opt-out to see it really grow?

yes! Here's the gist - https://gist.github.com/gauravano/1124fff46ae156537e6fb712bff9e980

@jywarren yes, currently profile tag enables the translation prompts. Yes, I am thinking of writing a note. What do you think? For making it easy to enable translation prompts, we can add a button on the profile page or somewhere else?

Thanks!

[jywarren]

So, with the right profile tag, should I be seeing the prompts on every page?

sure, yeah! Also, the "people" grid feature on this page could be used to prompt people to add that profile tag to themselves: [people:PROFILETAGNAME] https://publiclab.org/wiki/education#Education+group

So, with the right profile tag, should I be seeing the prompts on every
page?

Only on pages where I replaced default t helper with custom translation helper like this https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/blob/master/app/views/dashboard/dashboard.html.erb#L47 . I will document it and some more things today.

sure, yeah! Also, the "people" grid feature on this page could be used to
prompt people to add that profile tag to themselves:

@jywarren you added such button here - https://publiclab.org/wiki/translation a month ago. Should we add it to more pages?

[jywarren]

LOL omg i totally did. So, no problem. Ah ok re: t vs. translation -- are we going to roll this out across all templates on a schedule? Thanks, sorry i was out of sync with you and even myself :-P
