I’m seeing two unknown names in the 3.4 credits: along with the historical fr_FR translators (with their pictures), I’m seeing two other names — that are not even present in the fr.wp.org users. How come?

Hello,
I see strange Names at the credit page (wp-admin/credits.php) in WordPress Arabic:
“letsfx” and “ala101″ …
They haven’t contributed to the Translation.
How can you explain that ?-
Zé
They are listed as validator/editor on the dashboard of http://ar.wordpress.org (‘letsfx’ is the validator of BuddyPress, for instance)
-
Rasheed Bydousi
And I would like to know how to assign validators to http://ar.wordpress.org ?
I don’t want validators to be added to WordPress (ar.wordpress.org) arabic translation without my knowledge.
Thanks
-
Zé
This probably happened one time only, when the validators in GP were merged with the users of rosetta sites. Feel free to remove them.
-
Zé
You can add a validator, by simply adding a user with the ‘validator’ profile.

Rasheed Bydousi
“ala101″ last activity was before 5 years so please remove him from the validators/editors list I don’t want unauthorized people to have access to the Translation I am working hard for it.
How “letsfx” related to BuddyPress Ar Translation ?! it seems to an error … please have a check again.

Really love the credits page. Nice set up with Gravatars and all.
How are the translators pulled into the page? In the danish installs we have four translators on the credits page. Is it the four who contibuted most strings or just the validators? Is four the limit or is that just coincidence?
-
Toru
Hiya.
We are also little confused with this too, at Japanese translation team.
We sort of figured out that the validators are listed first with Gravatars, then followed by contributers of this release are listed with just names and no gravatars. But was this changed at latest RC? Because it only shows validators now…
Thanks,

Hello, Zé,
We have a little problem with the credits page, in the translators section.
The system reflects the profiles of the translators that had any approved translation in GlotPress. In our case, it only appears one translator. We omit, therefore, all the translators who make great contributions through the translation of .po files, leaving aside the GlotPress platform.
Another problem we have is that some translators do not want to be in the credits page.
Maybe in the future you could develope a privacy tool, eg. in the profile configuration of the WP.org account, allowing us to choose if we want to appear in the credits pages. Or, if it is not possible, a tool or a file on the svn to manually configure the translators that will appear on the credits page for each language.
Thanks in advance.

Zé, a reminder to double-check Chouf1′s presence as a WP fr_FR translator, please Others are fair game
Thanks!-
Zé
‘chouf1′ is no longer a validator

Validators and translators on the credits page should all be accurate as of today. You may need to manually expire the local transient to confirm this.
Still some encoding issues, which I hope to fix in some form in the coming days, and some formatting issues on the credits page, which we’ll likely tackle in 3.2.1.

Hello Nacin,
Any news. I still waiting for reply -
Andrew Nacin
I’ll need a CSS expert to take a look at this. Maybe a width to a min-width come version 3.2.1.

It is ok with chrome.

Hi Zé, please remove from the validators everybody for the Hungarian language project except me (DjZoNe) and fgyw, thus the others does not show any kind of activity since years.
So, I don’t think it would be fair, to show their names in the Credits pages.-
Zé
Removed
-
DjZoNe
It took 24 hours to show up, on the Credits page, right?
-
Zé
Not sure how long, exactly, but the info is cached, yes.
-
DjZoNe
3 days passed, and they still show up, on the Credits page? What else can be done about this?

Same Problem in ar-AR
There are inactive validators since 4-5 years.
It is ridiculous and unfair to show in the same line names of people who contributed to wordpress several hours with names of others who are contributing and working hard and constantly since many years.
Please remove all validators from ar-AR except me. I will give you later the nickname of my Translation partner.

Credits page: How is list of translators generated? I found some users on Credits page which were only testing GlotPress and tried adding one or two strings which were not approved by validators. Only users with some approved string should be displayed on Credits page, I guess…
And also please remove jowik from validators. I did not find any string from this username and did not know when and how became a validator?
Thank you…
-
Zé
jowik’s request dates back to… 2005!. CS has you, jowik and neoen as validators. Should I remove just jowik?
-
pavelevap
Oh, history
Yes, please remove only jowik. Thank you…-
Zé
Removed
-
pavelevap
No, jowik is still here… Could you please remove him?
-

pavelevap
As regards first part of my question, between our translators is also Nikolay Bachiyski
But I did not find any string from him…-
Zé
This could indicate an initial import of the .po file.
-
pavelevap
Yes, but he is not one of the translators of WP 3.2. There is no string with his name in GlotPress…
-
pavelevap
Could you please remove Nikolay and other users which are not related to current translation (that means no approved string)?

Hi there.
We have an issue in credits page (http://es.wordpress.org/wp-admin/credits.php). é appears as é, so there are two names wrong: José and Zé.
Can you take a look at the charset?
Thanks -

Hi guys!
Credits page: For fr_FR, please remove nbtetreault, lionel_chollet, applimed, qbert72, drouq_, and guidebook. Only Lionel has done any work that I know of on WP’s translation, and he hasn’t been active for years.
Thanks!
-
Zé
Validators for FR are: mabln, chouf1, z720, momo360modena, fairweb and you… see http://wppolyglots.wordpress.com/2011/06/08/everyone-is-requesting-to-remove-inactive-validators-so/#comment-2965 also.
-
xavier
I wonder where all the guys listed in /credits are from, then… Anyways, work in progress you said, alright.
As for WP’s translation, you can safely remove validator rights from z720 (not involved in WPFR anymore, or from afar at best). I think chouf1 might be removable too (only takes part in BuddyPress’ translation AFAIK).
Fairweb did her fair (heh!) share of translation in the early days, so I have no qualms against her. Same for matbln, and lent a helping hand in 2006/2007.Thanks!

Hi all –
A question has come up with regards to the various strings on the credits page, what they mean, and how they can loosely be translated. If you need more clarification, comment and I’ll update the post.
Please note I’m still working out some issues on the page, so for a few more days the credits are likely to be inaccurate for your locale.
- Project Leaders – Pretty easy, I’d think.
- Extended Core Team – These individuals (along with the project leaders) make up the core team.
- Recent Rockstars – These are recent top contributors. They have contributed extensively in the most recent development cycle and have earned the extra recognition. Given this is largely an English colloquialism, translate it as it makes sense in your language.
- Core Contributors – I would think this is explanatory.
- Cofounder, Project Lead – Matt is the cofounder of WordPress and leads the project.
- Lead Developer – There are four lead developers who direct the project.
- User Experience Lead – Jane is the head of User Experience, known as UX.
- Core Committer – Also known as a core developer, this is a member of the core leadership team who has full and permanent commit rights to WordPress. (Me and Dion.) We report to the lead developers.
- Guest Committer – A developer who has temporary commit rights for a specific component or feature. This cycle, Koop was given commit rights for the UI refresh.
- Internationalization – Nikolay has commit access to manage the PO/MO libraries in WordPress.
- XML-RPC – Joseph has commit access to develop and manage our external APIs, specifically XML-RPC.
- Developer – A generic title for other individuals on the page.
- External Libraries – These are separate code libraries that WordPress uses, like jQuery.
- Translators – Please translate this string into the form of ‘English Translators.’ It’d be good to be clear that you are translators for that specific locale.
- Icon Design – Obvious, I’d think.
- Blue Color Scheme – For a designer’s work on the blue admin theme.
Approximate hierarchy, to allow you to choose comparative words:
- Project Lead & Lead Developer & User Experience Lead
- Core Committer/Developer
- Guest Committer
- Developer
- Core Conntributor
Thanks.
-
Xavier
Thanks Nacin. I have yet to find a proper, short translation for “committer” in French, so for now I use the same translation for “lead developer” and “core developer”. Let me know if that’s a big no-no.
As for the “Translators” string: do you mean, for instance, that I should translate it into “French translators” (but in French, obviously)?
-
Wacław J.
To me, the most confusing bit remains to be “core”, as it could both refer to the core of the developer team or the code of the “core” of WordPress, especially that the URL address of the bug tracker is http://core.trac.wordpress.org/. Andrew, could you please help out on this? Thanks, WJ
-
Peter Westwood
In this context “Core” refers to the WordPress.org software i.e. a Core Committer / Developer / Contributor (commits to|develops on|contributes to) WordPress.

Wacław J.
Thank you, Peter.

Sithu Thwin
It goes to http://profiles.wordpress.org/users/0 for user at first place in translators list and second to “users/1″, third to “users/2″. Do I need to report in track ticket about it ?
I’m in first place, so it goes to “users/0″ instead of “users/herzcthu”. I’ve updated my profile on wp.org profiles page.-
Andrew Nacin
Fixed. You’ll need the transient to flush before you see it. (Takes 24 hours.)

herzcthu
Thanks I will check it tomorrow.

Everyone is requesting to remove inactive validators. So why shouldn’t I do it?
Zé, Pls remove other validators than me and minnkyaw. So 3.2 credits page will show up actual working persons. Now I’m one and only active validator for WP related localization projects and minnkyaw is helping me. So only me and minnkyaw should remain in translator list.-
Zé
Sure, join the party. The only thing is that you are the only validator for mya, minnkyaw isn’t
-
herzcthu
Yes I know minnkyaw isn’t validator yet. But he is in the list of translators. So it is ok.
But ngwestar also in the list. As far as I know ngwestar is no longer working on WP related localization projects. He is a member of our locale site too. I guess Credit page retrieve the name not only from GlotPress but also from locale site. Is this right ?-
Zé
Keep in mind that the Credits Screen is a work-in-progress.
-
herzcthu
OK I see. Thanks

Anyone with a Validator role or above on fr.wordpress.org are listed as validators. (They’re the ones with the gravatars.) Anyone who submitted a string since 3.3 was released (so December 10) get their names listed, as long as the string was approved (even if the string is no longer current).
xavier 10:43 pm on May 30, 2012 Permalink |
Ah, right, forgot about GlotPress again. Thanks for the reminder, Andrew!
