#skandinavian has multiple language specific faqs. What do I do about that?
edit: Removed them. Everyone understands English in skandiland.

I guess we can just remove the Swedish, Norwegian and Danish columns completely from the spreadsheet.
later:
I was completely confused about the Scandinavian faqs 2 weeks ago. I thought the !faq + word would use the a sentence in a translated language depending on what channel you were in.
This doc just changed where they were and how there were going to be used, I should've moved our faqs instead...
Why create this complicated exception. I have yet to find a Swedish person in my life that do not speak English (who's not younger than 9 and older than 60). We really don't need these language specific faqs. !faq swedish/norwegian/danish/ should stay though, those could be useful in #osu.

If I were to go literally, I would write "Bruuuuuuuuuum" (translates as "Vroooooooooom", the sound of car).

2nd screenshot: I can't reproduce this overlapping, how did you do?
It's seldom an issue for Chinese translations though, since they usually take less space than the English version.
why this exists if cannot be translated?
also, saw the tsundere translation for the FAQ, and lol'd like hell

We can get rid of these altogether now, right? Collections make them obsolete and unused.
I have also translated the few remaining non-translated French strings in the !faq spreadsheet.
translated around 10% of the missing german FAQ and corrected some entries
EDIT: german section is almost complete
If guide and tutorial are identical, then they should both be kept imo.
actually, I prefer name-change over change-name. I believe moderators use it more often too. o:

Someone suggested to do a full description toward DoubleTime mod tooltip (and he did). I wonder if it's appropriate or not, because he prefer to have a meaningful description instead of "Zoooooooooom". From what I see, Thai, Simplified Chinese, Indonesian, and Greece language provides detailed description, mentioning clearly about the 50% increased playback speed. This also applies to Nightcore and HalfTime mods as well.
Can we also remove tooltip for NoVideo mod as well? Since it's no longer used anyway.

The !faq *language* should stay as is, since it tells people of new channels. I think the Scandinavian languages should stay too, since there are younger players who might not understand all the advanced English terminology - if we remove those, then why not remove the ingame localizations too?theowest wrote:

We hardly ever have to use faqs in our channel. Most Scandinavians prefer their language in-game so it would be silly to remove that too. The reason we're removing these sw/no/da- faqs is because they shouldn't exist any more.MillhioreF wrote:

By the way, how will these new !faq commands work? Will they work that way: every of the English commands will have multiple sisters with "xx-" prefixes?
Some languages kept "Zoooom" or a local equivalent, some gave a short description like "Everything goes faster!", others gave a long one.

- How well do you think people of your country will understand something like "Zoooooom"?
- Do you think the "DoubleTime" mod is already explicit enough, even for people who do not speak English everyday and thus, doesn't need a long, heavy description? A short one, maybe?
- On the contrary, do you think a long description should be appropriate here for people to fully understand the purpose of this mod?

I've cleaned up all the FAQ entries with a language prefix, except for a bunch of unique Chinese ones that didn't seem to correspond to any other entry. There's a bunch that the keyword itself is in a foreign language, too, so I haven't touched those either - other than that, it should be a lot cleaner. There might be some redundant or stupid entries that need removing, though.
Edit: I also plugged in the last of the v1 localizations into slots that had nothing translated in them (mostly Japanese.) I guess we can finally take that link out of the first post?

which too should be added to the doc (making it translatable)

I've also noticed there are many translations that won't fit where they should be:- The beatmap processing
this beatmap information.- the tooltips on the jukebox/now playing
- "Users connected, Search, Lock Panels, and the tabs for sorting.

New line to translate - asking if you want to restart osu! after changing languages.
And "Userlog_RetryCount" (line 301) has been changed to something more explicit.
Edit: moreover, since Perfect and Nightcore mods don't need to dragged anymore to be discovered, some faq entries need to be updated ("perfect" and "nightcore").

Added quite a few new strings for updater logic.
"osu! is up-to-date! You are now running {0}."
What is written in {0}? The version number? I translated this with assumption that it's a version number.

I found this typo: "Options_TabSkin_CustonKey"

There is also "Options_TabSkin_UpsiedDown" 
Also, see this thread to be informed about Update_Added and Update_Fixed being too narrow. So for the time being, until boxes are wider or autoresizable, you'll probably have to abbreviate or shorten your translations for these two lines.

Options_TabSkin_Special has changed.
Finnish version is a mess, only 70% complete, and most of the translations sound stupid and/or are incorrect. Noticed a couple of troll translations as well. Not gonna bother if I have to mark down every change I make, because most of it should be re-done.
If not, I'll update it over time...

By April 2, there were still about 15% of the Tsundere commands that were equal to their english counterparts, so I wrote those. Group effort!
Good job there. I also love the new specially created entries

I made some heavy changes to finnish FAQ translations. It's only 32% tho.
For those who haven't noticed yet, three new lines have been added: Collection_EnterName, Collection_Mapset and Collection_Select.
It would be nice if we could translate the new buttons:
And this... er... text in "1.":
http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/714086
(Yeah I know, the original text is supposed to be "Manage Collection", see here)
edit: it is available now.

To make sure FAQs get updated between languages, when you edit a FAQ, could everyone change the row colour to the lightest shade of purple so we know to check the translation? Once it's been checked, simply change the cell back to white.
This should stop mild discrepancies in FAQs between languages.

Sounds good to me. Will keep that in mind.
Some of the FAQ entries (e.g: "apostrophe", "alot" FAQ) doesn't really make sense.
Indonesia language never use the apostrophe other than as regular quote. There are some uncommon words in Indonesia that uses the apostrophe, but this is not applicable even with English language. (e.g: "Jum'at" in Indonesia language, meaning "Friday")
And what the heck is "alot" anyway? lol

If you set "MyPcSucks: 1" on your CFG file, the checkbox will become available again. Disabling this, exit Options menu, and then return to Options menu, and you'll see the checkbox gone by the wind._Gezo_ wrote:
Also, shouldn't the "Low End PC" entry disappear ? There's no use anymore (Used to be in Options but now, it's gone)
That's something weird, but if it's supposed to stay, it'll stay.
I have been told by _Gezo_ in a GDrive comment that the taiko spinner is actually called a denden (it's even written in the wiki but I didn't notice, duh). Entry #244 (see below) still uses the term "spinner". Do you think it would be relevant to replace the word spinner by denden, or should we leave it as it is for the sake of clarity (not sure if people actually know what a denden refers to)?
"Relax! You will no longer get dizzyfied by ninja-like spinners, demanding drumrolls or unexpected katu's.

Any opinions on merging name-change and change-name FAQ entries? I believe one of them should be removed. I also suggest doing the same for guide and tutorial (just add link to tutorials thread to the list of guides instead).
name-change and change-name have been merged into change-name. guide and tutorial serve slightly different purposes, and can probably be merged too, but I'm not sure of the best way to do that yet.
Changed Options_Graphics_Snaking_Tooltip from "This should run fine unless you have an ancient machine" to "This should run fine unless you have a low-end PC" in response to this thread.
but duplicates in this case don't do any harm. If you quickly want to faq people, you don't want to risk getting the wrong faq.MillhioreF wrote:
