  • The Brazilian Portuguese "translation" is an absurd

ram0ng1 I'll mark all translations as unverified, so community can fix translations without any limitations. We'll see if someone will want to maintain it, but until then anyone should be able to contribute translations.

      mercurius Actually @ram0ng1 has been restored to maintainer position few days ago, and I don't think we need another maintainer now, sorry. But you can contribute translations as regular user. You need maintainer permissions only to edit verified translations, which should not be needed in most cases.

          rob006 No problem, in this case I will maintain my own translation for my personal use.

              I call it "to be mean-spirited"... It just complains and doesn't help.

              @rob006 I did a local install and I was seeing where my translation errors were. I noticed that I missed an "i" instead of an "e"... All this caused our "friend" to revolt.

              @rob006 To solve this impasse, we can put the @mercurius to check the translations. As for me, I will stay as a regular user. 😉

                  Given what @rob006 said, I retire my offer to maintain. I really don't have time for it.

                  ram0ng1 I noticed that I missed an "i" instead of an "e"... All this caused our "friend" to revolt.

                  Oh, do you swear?

                  ram0ng1 I could no longer maintain. Since then, everything has been a mess. (Precisely for simply using the weblate's "Recommended Translation".)

                        mercurius Oh, do you swear?

                        no... 🤦
                        I don't think you know the meaning of community work.

                        "Well, if you want to help..."

                          Community is an actual excuse to do irresponsible shit. If you can't translate, that's ok, but don't do it. It is irresponsible. See, you (and mr. robber) stole my translation and mr. Biagi's and even took out our names from the translators. No problem for me, BUT, if it were to use the autotranslate from weblate, the maintainers could do it.

                          EDIT: community? ok, but don't do irresponsible shit. BTW, the portuguese translation is MINE, I was about to translate everything da capo ad fine. Stop being a parasite. I would translate even to you, as I did to a lot of forums, no problem.

                            mercurius I flagged your posts with our mods a couple of times before because I disagree how you have interacted here. It's disrespectful.

                            If you have an issue with being left out from being credited, you can raise that respectfully with the maintainer or the language coordinator. If you identify incorrect translations, you're welcome to help improve them. But attacking someone who took responsibility over a language pack is not the way.

                            I highly recommend you read the community guidelines (https://discuss.flarum.org/d/859-flarum-community-guidelines).

                                luceos I am out of the community, please don't mention me anymore.

                                EDIT: the other guy mentioned me, please don't do it anymore.

                                  mercurius See, you (and mr. robber) stole my translation and mr. Biagi's and even took out our names from the translators.

                                  Your language pack wasn't updated since 2016 and the license holder for your extension is actually Toby Zerner: https://github.com/iacchus/flarum-brazilian-portuguese/blob/master/LICENSE. So realistically if anyone should have been credited, it would have been him.

                                  Please don't come barging in here after 6 years to claim rights to something you worked on for a month or so, never to look at again. Blaming someone who consistently worked on the language pack for over a year.

                                  mercurius BTW, the portuguese translation is MINE

                                  You are free to maintain your own language pack, this is open source. You can create and publish extensions on packagist however you see fit. But claiming a certain language and causing strife, instead of collaborating with other Portuguese Flarum enthusiasts isn't the way how open source works nor is a good representation of the warm and welcoming community we foster here.
