    Hi. Could you please list all validators of the zh_CN WordPress core project in GlotPress? I found that there are many strange strings who don’t have a “Translated by” field and were not translated by me. It seems that they were imported, but as far as I know, other validators (Paveo and kingler) are no longer working at WordPress.

    Although I am going through all the thousands of translations but I am eager to figure out where did stings like this come from in order to prevent such conflict and overriding in the future.

      It’s me. I did that. I had imported all those strings.

      • jiehanzheng 1:22 pm on May 27th, 2011 Permalink | Reply

        I wonder when and how you became a validator of the core project. Please don’t simply import your translation again, since that will override all the existing strings, and your expression for some words is kind of different from those existing. I think translate or modify them one-by-one is more acceptable. Thank you.

        Another example is that I replaced most of the links to English Codex articles by links to Chinese Codex articles, and your import just wiped them off and I have to revert to my previous translations one-by-one.

          Sorry about that. I just found that so many strings did not being translated. So I did that. OK, I won’t do that again. And I do.t know when and how I became a validator. If you feel not good. You can ask administrator to remove my permission. I just wanna to help. If you didnt need that. I stop. Sorry again.

          BTW, should I become a validator of bbPress? I already 100% finish the translation of it.

            @vanillalounge: as he stated, I hope his validator status at WordPress core could be revoked if possible.

            My suggestion for GlotPress is not to directly overwrite any existing strings when importing, instead, mark them as waiting when there are conflicts, to prevent such incident from happening again. Reviewing all translations is really a heavy work that can take days.

            @Dreamcolor: I really appreciate your help. I am open to any suggestions from the community and, as many can see, I always reply and process every email, forum post and comments on cn.wordpress.org regarding translation mistakes carefully and correct them as soon as possible, but to some extent I can not stand such suggestions that overrode all of my existing work that will cost much of my extra time to fix.

            However, please believe that I will be reviewing all the strings, and I will keep those who are better than existing ones.

                I agree with ‘jiehanzheng’ in this suggestion, since we are three validators for Galician in WordPress.com. And I wouldn’t like to see my work of two years deleted with a single upload.

                  It would be great if only one person has full rights to review all others’ works. New role like “language coordinator” or “project leader” may resolve this.

                  Just to be accurate, they won’t be deleted but marked as “Old.” Then we will have to double-click on all the translations, then “All translations of this original,” double-click on your translation again, and “Approve” our translations. This process will need tens of thousands of mouse clicks.

                  • Gregorovius 9:04 am on May 29th, 2011 Permalink | Reply

                    When translation is made on line and approved in GlotPress, it saves previous strings as Old. But seems that when a PO file is uploaded, this action deletes the entire history.
                    Either way, from now I will save a PO file each time I add a new string, in order to facilitate the restore if there is a similar situation.

    Hi. I am making a list page for our volunteers to contribute to translating WordPress, its sub-projects and the Codex. Could you please add Simplified Chinese into these pages:

    … and set me as validator for all the Simplified Chinese projects?

    Thank you!

      All set

      Hey, I’m preparing a new release and I was going to add the new Chinese translations.
      However, iPhone supports “zh-Hans” and “zh-Hant”. Which of those I should use for this translation?

      • jiehanzheng 12:05 pm on June 2nd, 2011 Permalink | Reply

        You should use “zh-Hans” for Chinese Simplified, which equals to “Chinese (China)” in GlotPress. Thank you. Have a nice day!

    @vanillalounge, please take a look at this: https://wppolyglots.wordpress.com/2011/04/20/may-i-ask-for-a-new-locale-association/ Thank you.

      I had seen it already, yes. Please don’t duplicate threads if at all possible. A suggestion (to all) is to just tag your post as “pending” so that it doesn’t get lost in the paging. Thanks.

      • jiehanzheng 4:53 am on April 23rd, 2011 Permalink | Reply

        It seems that the entry is now in place. Thank you! I apologize for any inconvenience and I’ve just tagged a post posted months ago, regarding a connectivity problem, as “pending.”

        For the support forum, we are still getting several spam posts every day. Although we do manual removing, spam posts are messing up the tag cloud on the forum home page. Could you please give me a higher permission on the forum so that I will be able to clear the cache.

        Another problem is I don’t have access to the spam / pending list under bb-admin.

        Oh. It seems that the lang-guess-ajax.php for the forum is still not working properly under some circumstances. For instance I can get the correct prompt on my iPhone, but I keep getting a link to tw.forums.wordpress.org when I access http://wordpress.org/forums on my laptop.

        http://wordpress.org/lang-guess/lang-guess-ajax.php?uri=%2Fsupport%2F&latest=

        My Accept-Language field in the request is en-US,en;q=0.8,zh-CN;q=0.6, and my IP address is 124.126.225.85. Then I did some dubugging — when I use cURL to get the response, which does not send the Accept-Language field, I can get the correct prompt for our Chinese forum.

        My assumption: the Accept-Language judgement is malfunctioning; as the IP geo-location works fine.

        • Zé 9:51 pm on April 25th, 2011 Permalink | Reply

          I’ll look into it, but experimenting with HTTP Client (which is incredibly useful in general), returns “WordPress is also available in 中文(简体), for me, with the same Accept-Language as above.

          • jiehanzheng 1:06 pm on April 27th, 2011 Permalink | Reply

            Seems that this problem occurs only when I use Chromium browser. And what’s more strange is that for the WordPress.org homepage, download page and the Forums, I get two different language guess results. I will do a tcpdump tomorrow and I will get in touch with you once I have results. No need to spend time on this. Thank you so much.

    I have been asking this for seven months without success so I’m giving it another try.

    There are strings in custom wp.org theme and/or plugin that aren’t in Rosetta POT file so they can’t be translated. I believe that reason for this is because they aren’t wrapped around gettext functions.

    You can see them at following screenshots I made: links to topics’ view in header, on front page, and titles of those views; strings in topic’s sidebar; profile fields on registration and profile page; link for subscribing to new topics in tag.

    Please fix this since we were patient for a long time.

      Milan, I was wondering about those same strings earlier today! They are quite visible and not too many, so I second your opinion, to achieve the best local user experience, it would be great to have a way to localize them.

    • yuraz 10:21 pm on April 19th, 2011 Permalink | Reply

      I agree with Milan and Jenia. It’s just a few strings, but they are constantly ignored, and not included in POT files. So please put this on your TO DO list. Thanks. 🙂

      • Zé 5:48 pm on April 20th, 2011 Permalink | Reply

        The problem is in the .pot file generation (for the forums, not rosetta) which we are correcting

    Hello, this is Jiehan from WordPress China.

    Recently, many of our users reported that their connections to WordPress’s server were extremely slow, which directly caused timeout error and their failure during updating WordPress automatically. I, too, realized that the connectivity between China and the download server were not so good. Although, as a result, a large portion of our users host their sites overseas, there are still many users hosting their WordPress installations in China mainland.

    It seems that the slow connection was not caused by the Internet censorship in China. May I know if you have any plans to introduce more servers or nodes, or optimize the connection for China?

    Thanks.

    PS. The ‘stats’ chart in our dashboard is not working properly. Do you have any idea on this?
