Question

Partial localization

I was pleasantly surprised to find that these forums have been patially localized. That is, I am now getting many (but not all) of the fixed texts in Spanish in Firefox/Mac (but not in Explorer/Win). A welcome improvement for those who don't understand English, no doubt.

Obviously, I do not fully agree with all the translations, but they are probably understood in all the Spanish speaking countries, so I will accept them as they are. There is however an exception: posts has been translated as artículos which, literally, means articles. This is incorrect, and in my opinion also confussing, so I would like to suggest that it is changed to mensajes.

    Of course. My suggestion is to change "artículos" by "mensajes" here

    and "artículo" by "message" in here:

    Addictionally, I would now suggest also changint the untranslated ·Modify Date" by "Último Cambio". This is not a literal translation (which would be too long for the available space", but it's only one character longer than the original.

    Well, in Explorer/Win, I went to the bottom of the page ald clicked om the United States (Change) button. I was immediately welcomed by thie error message:

    (Oh no, that page couldn't be found. We are sorry, the page you requested could not be found. You can go back and try again, or start all over again in Start).

    I just closed IE, and came back to the main page of this forum to report as promissed. And what do you know: the page had miraculously switched to the half-Spanish version, and the bottom line showed that I was in España... Go figure.


    Correction to my message #7. The error message appeared after I clicked on "United States (Change)" and chose "España" in the list of countries.
