Problem when formatting the Markdown in Spanish #722

Closed humitos closed 7 years ago

The dotted list is not working properly in the Spanish version. Please check the differences:

I went to Crowdin and the code seems to be ok:

So in English the markup looks like this:

Nice! See how the answer popped out? Python knows math! You could try other commands like:
- `4 * 5`
- `5 - 1`
- `40 / 2`

(https://github.com/DjangoGirls/tutorial/edit/master/en/python_introduction/README.md#L33)

but in Spanish (based on what Crowdin's done to it) it looks like this:

¡Bien! ¿Ves como salió la respuesta? ¡Python sabe matemáticas! Podrías intentar otros comandos como: - `4 * 5` - `5 - 1` - `40 / 2`

(https://github.com/DjangoGirls/tutorial/edit/master/es/python_introduction/README.md#L35)

It's similar in other non English languages. Crowdin's interpretation of that list is unlike other lists in that file - it seems to normally split out the items into individual translation units.

Could be because there's not a blank line before the list. I'm going to try adding one and see if that improves things. :)

People, I got frustrated on this (crowding has one old English version as base for translation and a lot of things are already fixed in the lastest English version -git master)

So, I'm sorry, but as we are having our 7th Django Girls Workshop tomorrow and I wanted to have a very nice and updated version, I decided to fork the project and mix all of these things / versions / collaborations and stuffs in just one place. I tried to communicate my frustration to some django girls emails, but it was taking too much time.

Finally, I wrote (mix all what we had, translate missing parts and put everything together in just one HTML page for tomorrow's workshop in Cuenca, Ecuador):

You are free to share / use it and I will love if we can discuss the whole process of being a translator of the Django Girls tutorial (and other resources as well). We really need to improve it.

Thanks!

@humitos I have fixed the formatting from this PR but the whole problem of translations is still a pain for us and I can't tell you anything promising about it. I am closing this issue for now 🤝
