Help me translate my best posts in your Local Board

[fillippone]

I am a strong believer in the utility of local boards.
I am lucky enough to be able to express myself in at least a couple of languages, but I know this is not the case for everyone.
A lot of users post only in the local boards because of a variety of reasons  either language or cultural barriers, lack of interest or whatever other reason.
I personally know a lot of very good users (from the italian sections mainly, for obvious reason) who doesn't post in the international sections.

I think all those users they are missing a lot of good contents posted on the international (english) section or on other boards.
 
My first "important" thread is actually translation from English to Italian of a very nice guide to setup a Bitcoin full node on a Raspberry. I had a very nice feedback on this, because a lot of people simply, didn't look at content in other languages or they felt they weren't proficient enough on another language to embark on a simple, but long technical process.
On the back of this experience I also translated in the italian board a few other posts I felt were useful, like the LoyceV's Beginners guide to correct use of the Trust system.
All this reasoning was meant to justify the fact  I think the translation of posts is something very useful to help spreading the knowledge.

So I used the @ddmrddmr Bitcointalk Merit Dashboard to look at my most merited posts (the ones which got more than 50 merits) and I am posting here, so you can read them, and, if you like, translate them in your local board.

There are only a few rules:

Just stick to forum rule:

• 27. Using automated translation tools to post translated content in Local boards is not allowed.
  

  Don't use GT to translate in your language. I carefully crafted my post: I don't want them to be ruined using the cheap syntax and dictionary choices of GT. Take your time, understand, learn and then translate. No hurry.
  
  

• 33. This includes both copying parts or the entirety of other users' posts or threads and copying content from external sources (e.g. other websites) and passing it as your own.
  

  Just include a clear reference to the fact the content you are posting is a translation of an article of mine and also provide a link to my original post. This is enough. As a courtesy I will link your translation in the below table.
  
  

Lastly, not a forum rule, but a couple of gentleman agreement:

• just remember I am here to help you. In case of doubt, just drop me a DM, I will try to help you with the matter.
• Everyone who is going to translate any topic should make an announcement on this thread beforehand to avoid any confusion. As a fist step everyone should check the OP and previous announcements to check in how many languages the article have been already translated or it is going to be translated. Doing translation is a complex, time consuming and requires a considerable effort. Doing the same translation means double work and I hate the double work.
  
• RULE UPDATE

Hello mate. I am interested to translate it on my own language (Pilipinas Board) about the topic on BTC Futures as I am learning it for the meantime and I feel that working on understanding it will give me more knowledge to grasp from your helpful post. I will do my best to translate it on my own language. Will update you here once its done. Thank you so much.

[GazetaBitcoin]

Hello fillippone! I'll translate in Romanian all your topics written in English. I hope to finish by the end of next week.

[hd49728]

I am a strong believer in the utility of local boards.

Locals will be inspired by translations from excellent original threads that you actually have. Some of locals (especially in some nations) don't know English or have below average reading skill so good translations will help them.

Then, when they recognise the value of the forum, they will grow up and who knows they will be a future of our forum. Translations can play as a carrot to kick off their journeys here.

This is actually the main point of the whole thing.
Bitcoin is a difficult subject per se, easing unecessary barrier is a welcome things for many potential user.

Thank you both for joining this little project!

[OgNasty]

I’d be interested in the reverse. What great threads am I missing out on because they aren’t in English?

OF course translation is working both ways.

If you see a good thread in your local board you should translate into the Elgish section.
Something I was thinking to do with this one from the italian board, for example:

curve ellittiche e algoritmo ECDSA

EDIT:
Actually @zasad@ translated one of my posts from the italian board to the russian one (totally skipping the International Board!)

• Comprare Bitcoin senza KYC: Bitcoin Bancomat a Milano rispettoso della Privacy (from Italian)
  
  • Russian Translation by zasad@: Пoкyпкa и пpoдaжa биткoинoв бeз KYC в Eвpoпe

I'm willing to reserve and translate #meritislife: how to be notified on a smartband of merits and mentions to Pilipinas Board.

[Jawhead999]

I will try to translate your best post in my own local language (Indonesia board).  I will update it here if I have finish it. Thank you 

[UserU]

That gives me some inspiration to translate in my local language (not part of the major boards). I could give the smartband thread a try, and thanks to you, I discovered there's a (stickied) Malaysian thread after all these years!

EDIT: I noticed I'm unable to create a thread because no new posts could be made except inside the thread itself, which would eventually be buried :/

[nakamura12]

I am interested to translate your merit post in my local board and if I translate one of your merited threads there might be a problem where I translated the thread I'm going to translate and a fellow countrymen did also translate the same thread and will result in multiple thread. Local board: Pilipinas

You mean this one? MeritLife I think you can read some post above you and @baofeng already reserved or informed here that he will translate it. This is why courtesy here is being practice.

Hello mate. Apology if it took a while before I can finish the translation. The terms and explanation is quite technical and more on financial aspect which is hard to convert literally on our own language and needs attention and vivid understanding to not destroy its meaning. I am still confuse with some terms but I tried very best to come up with a good explanation. Though is much simple when you doing the actual trading on exchange based on this. By the way, here is the link of translated post entitled: Lahat ng gusto ninyong malaman tungkol sa BTC futures ngunit natatakot itanong!

Added the two latest translations in the OP!
Keep up the good work guys!

Well, the point of that thread is to post resources in your own language. What's the point to translate that thread and have resources in English?
I understand it is difficult to find resources in your own language, but that is the whole point of the thread!
