Help us translate the fediseer FAQ

We wish to allow the Fediseer FAQ to be available to multiple languages and for that we need your help.

If you want to translate, you can do it two ways:

Pull Request

Use this approach if you're good with github and/or git. If not, see the Simple approach below

Go to our github repository (https://github.com/Fediseer/fediseer) and create a pull request for the language you would like to contribute.

All you need to do is make a copy of the english version into the 3-letter ISO 639-3 code of the language you wish to translate to.

For example if you would like to translate into arabic, you would create a file fediseer/faq/ara.py.

Then rename all variables of "ENG" to your language code. To follow our example, you would rename ENG_HEADER to ARA_HEADER before translating its contents.

Note: Do not translate the category key. Only the category_translated key.

Once you're done with a field, change its translated key to True

Finally in https://github.com/Fediseer/fediseer/blob/main/fediseer/faq/init.py, follow the other existing language as examples, and import and add the entries for your new language code.

Simple

Use this approach if you don't understand github or git well.

Simply download the english version

Edit it as best as you can with your text editor, then open a new issue with your results and post it there. We'll handle the rest. You can send us partial translations if you want and work on them slowly.
