We Need The Discourse Translation Plugin

It is better if a language is not supported - that’s a clear and easily understood information - than if many more are supported but there is frequent mistranslation and miscommunication.

Exactly! Better to have no translation at all than unintelligible strings of words created by a hugh quantity / poor quality tool.

Bro, you are doing a great and valuable job here … have not seen any post from you so far which would not make sense … thanks for that, mate!

During Friday’s meeting there was agreement and testing will be run to evaluate the best way to implement this plugin

Language and location based content

Since old forum spaces will be moved over here, country-based categories will exist. The Discourse Translation Plugin will be tested. Communities will be able to request language-based categories afterwards if that’s something people want.

Why? It was clear that people need to feel at home when coming from old platforms and country-based organization is what’s currently being used. It’s also important to provide room for communities to organize by language if that’s their desire and test new way for multi-language participation using machine translation technologies.
