5 years ago Well this wiki page is for people figuring out the user interface, process, etc., rather than people doing the translations. I think that is too much info for this purpose.
I added it to the Instructions to Translators section

5 years ago Um. Am i missing something? The link i suggested leads to a list of techniques about how to design HTML pages - it's not instructions to translators at all. For example, if you click on "Linking to localized content" or "Using content negotiation" you'll find a list of do's and don'ts and lists of related articles that address the questions in the design issues you have on github.

5 years ago Interesting disconnect. Here's what I did from your first comment, that is, here's an example user experience for you :-)
Then after your re-opening comment, I looked more (and I think ended up doing a find-in-page for "linking to") and finally figured out that you were referring only to the "Navigation" blue item and the expanded info under that. It was below the fold when I opened the page and I never saw it -- even when scrolled down in skimming, it didn't catch my attention.
I'll leave that for you to consider if you want to do anything different for your user experience (e.g., link with "?open=navigation" should place the focus there).
I updated Background with more info. Feel free to edit that. I'll also add links to specific i18n articles throughout WAI Translations where relevant -- and you're welcome to beat me to it :-). (However, I don't think it's usable to link within https://www.w3.org/International/techniques/authoring-html given my user experience.)

5 years ago @slhenry thanks for the user feedback! The bug where the page wasn't bringing the relevant stuff above the fold should now be fixed. Try it with
which, unlike the previous link, also opens up the two relevant subsections.
Actually, you may want to link to https://www.w3.org/International/techniques/authoring-html.en?open=navigation, since that points to other relevant articles, and a number of recommended do's and don'ts.
