Handle auto-translated text properly #45

Open ajburley opened 5 years ago

ajburley commented 5 years ago

Currently, we have translations into 4 languages (German, Italian, Japanese, Russian) with full coverage of all the text strings from the legacy SealNote app. However, we don't have translators permanently working on this project. Therefore we will inevitably reach a point where we need to add new text and it's untranslated. As an interim solution, it will be translated using Google Translate.

We then want to do the following:

  1. Notify the users in the affected languages that we have auto-translated text
  2. Advise those users of how much text is translated (probably using a percentage)
  3. Provide the ability to suppress future notifications, either for these strings or indefinitely, in both the notification itself and the Settings screen
  4. Provide the ability for users to submit translations or verify existing translations via email, while supplying metadata about their language level

Loads of things are blocked by this. I've tried to label some of the important ones, but I'm not going to go through and label every single issue which will require new strings...
