Please move language files to language packs

[koenr]

HI Plugin maintainer,

It is against recommendations to include languages other then English in the plugin lang folder. Please remove them. Good reasons to do so include:

1. The strings in the plugin folder override the strings in the Moodle language pack.
2. Because of item 1, the language pack maintainer can't make the translation consistent with the rest of the Moodle language pack in case that is necessary.
3. No one knows what happens with strings in a child language pack, depending on a strings in a folder, since that is not tested. No idea what es_mx will get: es or es_mx, es from file, es from language pack, ... complicated
4. Even more important for you: The translation stats are wrong: see https://moodle.org/plugins/plagiarism_compilatio/translations
5. Because of item 4 it seems like a French and Spanish translation is not available, while they are.
6. Because of item 4 the listed translations for es and it will never be used, since they are overridden by the files in the plugin.

Background information on https://docs.moodle.org/en/Translating_plugins

You can upload them as a contribution through https://lang.moodle.org/local/amos/stage.php (-> import translated strings from file). Make sure you choose the correct language. Once the files are there, you can maintain them through AMOS. Just make a contribution, the language pack maintainer will review them and commit them in the Moodle language pack.

Thank you for your care.

Kind regards Koen Roggemans Moodle Translation coordinator
