Provide Translation guidelines #1085

Open evilaliv3 opened 9 years ago

evilaliv3 commented 9 years ago

In order to guide translators to perform good and profitable translation for the project it would be important to write down some guidelines on how to perform translations and inform volunteers about the rules to be observed while translating.

evilaliv3 commented 9 years ago

This can be done for example creating a Wiki page related to translations as done by the Tor project (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/translation/Introduction) and then Transifex offers the possibility to link this page as reerence page for the guidelines directly from the project page on transifex.

It would be useful also to write down small guidelines for the developers, to make software who's strings are easy to be translated

when creating this guidelines we should mention the localizationlab, their main guide http://www.localizationlab.org/translator-getting-started-guide and thanks the transifex volunteer community.
