Questions about translation with weblate

[deleted]

Hi,
I currently thought about helping the Solus Project with translation from English to German. I already created an account at https://translate.getsol.us but I only was able to suggest translation and not to save it. Do I have to purchase a subscription for weblate or does it work in a different way? Thanks in advance for any help. (I apologise for my bad english.)

Ok. May I ask how I could become a mod or do I at first have to do other contributions?

I explained this in my post: https://discuss.getsol.us/d/2040-brisk-menu-is-now-translatable-on-our-weblate

That being said, Girt is a perfectly good individual to review German translations. While I appreciate your offer, I don't think we need even more German translators with direct push access.

How many Portuguese(Portugal) translators are there? How many can suggest and how may are allowed to save and approve translations?
I'm a volunteer to review all the Portuguese(Portugal) translations.

hugok How many Portuguese(Portugal) translators are there?

There are 3 people assigned to the team.

how may are allowed to save and approve translations

As many as I deem necessary to ensure adequate coverage of a language.

JoshStrobl Thanks for reply. I wanted to make a request, only accept Portuguese for the pt_PT. Not Brazilians... they tend to mix pt and pt_PT with pt_BR.

hugok only accept Portuguese for the pt_PT. Not Brazilians... they tend to mix pt and pt_PT with pt_BR.

Sounds like profiling if you ask me, and that is absolutely not something I'm going to do. If someone has a translation for pt_BR I fully expect it to be accepted and added.

Here in solus we don't have too much of that because we only have pt_PT for the Portuguese and pt_BR for the Brazilian but for instance, in Transifex there are projects that have the 3 options, pt, pt_PT and pt_BR and the brazilians tend to translate the pt what they shouldn't do.
