Quite a big review!

Thanks, all updated.

Thanks, lots of clicks to move all this topics, but must have taken mutch more time to do the review!

I have other identified posts for languages without a subforum (Slovenian, Stonian, Lithuanian, Hebrew, Belarussian, Arabic, Vietnamese, Croatian, Basque, Esperanto, Macedonian, Persian). For now I won't list them, as I'm not sure you would do anything with them. Perhaps there could be a category in the "language specific discussions" subforum for "rest of languages" or similar ?

I'd post them anyway.

If there are many threads for a particular language, a subforum can be created for it. If not, it's good for future reference.

Well, not sure, it's a lot of work sorting all this and mostly churning up very old posts. Not a huge benefit; I mostly moved the topics listed (including the latest batch) out of respect for the time spent reviewing and listing them, but it's probably best not to get too obsessive about this. Thanks

The way I see it, it's not so much about putting all those threads in their right place (some are old and about games that are not even in BGA anymore), but about cleaning up this subforum so people interested in translation in general don't have to keep clashing into specific language threads (some were obvious to spot, but others were not).

Something I didn't do was look for the threads that would go into the "English - en" subforum, though.

Fair point, but there is a lot of very old messages in this subforum too (and that often means obsolete/irrelevant). Would people interested in translation really dive into all of that? Probably cleaning up the first 2-3 pages of this subforum would be enough.
I really appreciate the thoughtful effort though
