Add Spanish translation of license texts #5

Closed cyb3rko closed 4 years ago

cyb3rko commented 4 years ago

Fixes #3.

I finished converting the Spanish translations of the licenses and I already added the badge for Spanish. The README has to do someone else.

I hope this time I did it the right way...

Thanks again @cyb3rko.

I'm curious, where did you find the translated plain text version of the license? Does Creative Commons serves it as they serve the English version? Or did you copied the text in https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode.es and reformatted it?

cyb3rko commented 4 years ago

Where have you found the link to the formatted English version??

I just reformatted the text from here https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode.es into plain text.

Have I done everything correct with the fork etc.?

I found this blog entry: https://creativecommons.org/2014/01/07/plaintext-versions-of-creative-commons-4-0-licenses/

I just reformatted the text from here https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode.es into plain text.

I imagined... Maybe would be nice to reach them out so they can make all license texts available in plain text. It would be much better if our links just point to Creative Commons files rather than hosting our own (which by the way may not get updates or typo fixes).

Yes! Now the PR is opened from your spanish branch. Congrats!

Oh, I see.

Maybe this is a good idea, do you wanna contact them?

Yes! Now the PR is opened from your spanish branch. Congrats!

Nice, finally.

santisoler commented 4 years ago

Ok, I just opened an Issue to contact them: https://github.com/creativecommons/creativecommons.org/issues/1130

cyb3rko commented 4 years ago

I think the response will be late or never come, so maybe we should include our versions first and then, if someday they publish official plain texts, we can replace ours in the future, right?

santisoler commented 4 years ago

Sure! We don't need to wait for the plain text to be available at their repo. In fact, it's very likely we might need to tackle down that issue that I opened on their repository. So having some translations already in plain text is just working in advance.

Although, the translations are too many to do it manually. I'll check if there's a way to convert them automatically. I'm thinking of using pandoc to convert it to Markdown, and then doing some minor text formatting... any ideas are welcome!

santisoler commented 4 years ago

This PR is ready to be merged. I'll wait until #6 is ready, and then merge both together.

Thanks again for taking the effort of formatting the HTML versions!

cyb3rko commented 4 years ago

I use Visual Studio Code to automatically wrap the licenses to colum 72, so this makes it a lot easier to format. I can copy the texts, adjust the indents etc. and then I'm already finished.

I never used pandoc and it seems like it could be used for it but I have no experience until now...
