Certain incomplete tranlsations cannot be confirmed

Post by the-postminimalist »

I'm trying to help translate the main site into Persian. Every untranslated string is auto-translated into Persian using Google Translate, and I cannot confirm the translations that are actually correct, permanently leaving that string to never be a confirmed translation. Is there anything that must be done to solve it?

I'm also confused because it says only 55% of the main site has been translated into Persian, but when I actually click on it to help translate, everything is auto-translated with google translate, and when I try to click "show only untranslated strings", there's nothing there. So the google translated strings are considered complete here, but in the previous page, it says only 50% of strings have been translated.

It's only if I edit the google translated strings that I am able to confirm it as a translation. But not all of the auto-translated strings were wrong!

Hi, thanks for helping with translations!
I checked this, and it comes from un-confirming some strings that had been confirmed by players not speaking the language.
I have made a change about this to allow re-confirming them in this case. It will be deployed with the next site release (probably sometime this week).
Thanks for reporting this!
