[OFNT] [AOBT] The Alliance Of Bitcointalk Translators

[Porfirii]

It is Sunday and as I promised I have reviewed all topics and if I'm not wrong the following threads don't mention any link to the voting: Pidgin, Filipino, Ukrainian, Arabic and Pakistani.

SatoPrincess, Peanutswar, DrBeer, N.O and Adiljutt156, I think it would be very useful if you mentioned the link to the voting in your OPs or in a new post in the thread. Even theymos has added a link in the section of the forum under our avatars dedicated to News, and there are only a few days left until voting ends.

Thank you for the follow-up Porfirii,


[Botohan 2024] Araw ng Bitcoin Pizza sa Bitcointalk 🍕 is added to our local.

Other threads for translation will be follow this coming week.

[GazetaBitcoin]

As the two translations in progress will be finished very soon, the research task force will share in the next few days new proposals of topics to be translated

Looking forward for it!

but first of all, don't forget to update the topic about the Bitcoin Pizza Contest with the link to the voting.

Thank you for this update Porf!

I will add, if I may, that I am also kindly asking the translators of our own AOBT thread to update their translations, for reflecting correctly the actual members of this group. The translations of our OP which are not updated are the ones made by gagux123, Buchi-88, Yatsan, Hatchy, LB and zasad@. This update should take only 5 or 10 minutes at most... it is not an exhaustive job, therefore I am kindly asking all translators to update their translations.

Just updated mine, thanks @ GazetaBitcoin for the heads up. Also, If Im correct, @Ale88 and @Baofeng are no longer members of the AOBt, but their testimonials are still on the op

Ale88: Due to the nature of my job I’ve been translating emails and texts in 3 languages for more than 10 years.
Baofeng: "Be Your Filipino Translator" (BYFT)

I was wondering if @ Porfirii can check that out also.

[GazetaBitcoin]

Just updated mine, thanks @ GazetaBitcoin for the heads up.

You are very welcome Also as a small note, I observed that in your translation you kept the English words for the languages (I mean that cygan appears as translator for "Polish & German", Porf appears as the translator for "Spanish" and so on). Are these the Pidgin words for all these languages...? Also the last two boxes contain this text: "Apply Now! Click here to know more"/ Here you also kept the English words... these should be translated as well, besides the names of the languages, unless Pidgin uses same words as English for these terms... I hope this helps.

Also, If Im correct, @Ale88 and @Baofeng are no longer members of the AOBt, but their testimonials are still on the op

This is a good observation... those testimonials should be removed... And I may add, maybe Porf could collect some other testimonials from AOBTers which would like to offer their testimonials for our OP...?

I guess that's how they are spelt in pidgin. Pidgin originated from the British English so, it literally just have some words that have to remain in English as they dont have a defined way of writing. Pidgin is just a flow that anyone can write. we Nigerians and other Africans who speaks it, will understand the flow language any where. Just think of it like a broken way of writing in English, where punctuations or word patterns don't matter much.

Also the last two boxes contain this text: "Apply Now! Click here to know more"/ Here you also kept the English words... these should be translated as well, besides the names of the languages, unless Pidgin uses same words as English for these terms... I hope this helps.

Yea sorry for that, I guess I just missed those part before. I've already updated them now. Thanks

Good observation indeed. Old testimonials removed.

Call to current AOBTers: let us know your testimonials to be added in the OP.

zasad@ and Buchi-88 confirmed me a few days ago that they will update their threads soon.

[GazetaBitcoin]

Oh I understand... Thank you for explaining this to me.

Awesome! I am glad I could help!

zasad@ and Buchi-88 confirmed me a few days ago that they will update their threads soon.

This is good news, Porf. I am glad that you managed to reach them. Now let's hope that gagux123, Yatsan, and LB will respond as well...

Dears,

The newly created Research Task Force is taking longer than expected to make a decision on new topic proposals, and after the Pizza event we are running out of tasks. Therefore, if anyone is interested in suggesting a topic for translation, don't hesitate to do it. Otherwise, I hope we can make a decision in the next few days.

[GazetaBitcoin]

if anyone is interested in suggesting a topic for translation, don't hesitate to do it.

If I remember well, at some point DS sent me a PM, suggesting a topic to propose after finishing these ones... Unfortunately I don't have the PM anymore, but in case he sees this post, maybe he remembers what topic he had in mind at that moment. I honestly can't remember the topic... but I remember that I took a look at it and (without analyzing this deeply), I felt like it was suitable to be translated...

At same time, maybe until DS will show up with that topic (if he remembers it), maybe we will also receive the last needed translations for finishing the existing 2 topics from "In Progress" section.

i hope i can now gradually deliver the remaining three translations... unfortunately i'm very pressed for time at the moment

so, now the polish translation of [Eng: Tutorial] PGP Signature - Encrypt/Decrypt message (Linux Only) is ready and can be found under the following link:
[Poradnik Linux] Sygnatura PGP - Szyfrowanie/deszyfrowanie wiadomości

that leaves me with one more topic, which i will then translate into german and polish

[GazetaBitcoin]

so, now the polish translation of [Eng: Tutorial] PGP Signature - Encrypt/Decrypt message (Linux Only) is ready and can be found under the following link

Yay! Thank you for this effort, cygan! Now the Linux tutorial has 11 translations and it's finished!

Porf, when you will add cygan's Polish translation, please take a look at the German translation made by cygan... It is placed at the Fingerprint topic, instead of appearing at the Linux tutorial topic. It's misplaced.

that leaves me with one more topic, which i will then translate into german and polish

If cygan will make these 2 translations as well, the Fingerprint tutorial will reach 9 translation. As a consequence, 1 more will be needed for finishing it.

The available languages in which it can be translated are only [ARA] [FIL] - so this should be in attention of Nalain420 / Kavelj22 and Peanutswar.

New translation added and German translation moved to the right topic.

As we have already 11 translations, I'm moving it to the list of finished topics. We're definitely running out of tasks, for the first time since we created the Alliance. Gratz!

Dear GB

As I have said before, my door will always be open for you. You can always PM me without any hesitation. And as for the topic, I went through our old PM's and found it. Here is the topic I was trying to suggest! Also, I would like to apologize for my late responses recently, I'm not much online these days. I hope you guys will understand, both GB & Porf.

Ambulance - Campaign - Ukraine

Note: I never verified the source or how the funds are being handled but the person in charge seems to have some good reputation/trust feedbacks. One of them is from 1miau. So if anyone wants to verify its legitimacy, they can do so (my personal opinion).

The original thread of the campaign you mentioned is in German, which makes it a bit hard to assess the legitimacy of the project: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5387906.0

But taking into account the authority of the people who has merited it, and made comments in the English thread of the campaign above, I have good feelings about it. Let's see what other members who know more about the project have to say, but I have no qualms about translating it in case there are no reasonable doubts about the destination of donations.
