[OFNT] [AOBT] The Alliance Of Bitcointalk Translators

[Patikno]

Found a sick thread, and I think what @Tyke created, we should be able to share with the world without any language barriers. Isn't there any concern or plan at AOBT to help him?

-"Recovering hacked/lost accounts" by theymos in Indonesia translation is ready https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5491252.0 

[DrBeer]

Hi everyone !
Finished translating 3 articles:

-"Recovering hacked/lost accounts" by theymos

Ukrainian translation : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=236982.msg63881459#msg63881459
Russian translation: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5491046

Great job DrBeer! All translations were updated in our op and, in the case of "Recovering hacked/lost accounts", since we have already 10 translations I'm moving it to the list of finished translations.

Translation of the topic "Recovering hacked/lost accounts" by theymos has been in the Russian section for a long time and is fixed on the main page of the section Boccтaнoвлeниe дocтyпa к yчётнoй зaпиcи 2018

You're right Xal0lex: I have just included a new link to the pinned translation you mentioned.

Unfortunately, there are a few things that should be improved/updated, as Gazeta pointed a few posts above. DrBeer, if you can ask the OP to update it (as I did in the Spanish board) it would be great. In the meantime, we're maintaining the link to the second translation as [RUS2], just in case.

Hello everyone !

I can write to the author of an older article, but there is a nuance: Last Active: January 30, 2020, 01:09:53 PM
The person is not present on the forum for a very long time. Is there any sense to write such a request ?

Given the new information provided by DrBeer, I believe that best approach in this case would be that Xal0lex should remove the old sticky thread and replace it with DrBeerr's translation. I can not understand the language but, from what I see, DrBeer's is (1) up to date, while the other one is not, (2) mirroring the original thread better, compared with the old translation and (3) DrBeer can be reached for any future updates needed, while the author of the old translation is gone from the forum.

It's not up to me to make such decision but this is how I would proceed if the decision would be in my hands... I hope this helps.

"Recovering hacked/lost accounts" by theymos in Indonesia translation is ready

Great job dansus021! Now this thread has already 12 translations, which is... wow! It's most translated thread since AOBT's birth, having 12 translations, together with TalkImg and LocalMonero threads

I am aware of the project, although there is a longer thread if I'm not wrong. I think it id a good idea to increase the awareness in the local boards, let's see what other members think.

I agree with Gazeta: great job, dansus. I've ran out of sendable merits, but I'll reserve the next one for your translation

[Husna QA]

-snip-
-Also finished translating the seminal article by author Husna QA "[Education] Bitcoin Privacy and Anonymity". into Ukrainian.
Temporarily posted in the Archive section, as the article is very extensive, and requires verification (involved users from the Ukrainian section, for final proofreading and possible correction).
 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5490637.0

It seems that some of the tables of contents links in your translation thread posted on the Ukrainian board are not working*
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=236982.msg63892660#msg63892660.

Meanwhile, it works for those posted in the Archival section (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5490637.0).

* I assume that because the post is on a different page, the iurl code doesn't work correctly.

Here are some suggestions for code improvements (specifically for your translation thread on the Ukrainian board):

Initial format:

Змicт:

13. Taproot вiд DroomieChikito
14. Aнaлiз aнoнiмнocтi Bitcoin
15. Кoнтpoль мoнeт вiд DroomieChikito
16. Лaнцюжoк тpaнзaкцiй

Code:

13. [iurl=#point14]Taproot[/iurl] вiд [url=https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=938833]DroomieChikito[/url]

16. [iurl=#Circuit_of_Transactions]Лaнцюжoк тpaнзaкцiй[/iurl]

Changed into:

15. Кoнтpoль мoнeт вiд DroomieChikito

Hi Husna QA !
Yes, it seems that iurl is valid within the information blocks on the same page....

Thanks for the recommendations - I will make the changes today!


UPD - fix !

Besides, as Porf recommended, please suggest one topic at a time though, not all 3 (We may think about the other 2 ones after finishing one of the 3 topics.)

While waiting for DS to suggest on of the two topics, I thought to make another suggestion myself, since the existing two topics are supposed to be finished soon (both have translations in progress, which will led to have 10 translations for each of them). If that will happen, we will remain only with the topic proposed by DS.

A while ago I proposed translating the thread of a service - AgoraDesk - since it was a service meant to protect users' privacy. I was glad the topic was accepted, for the reason I provided. Having this in mind, I would like to propose now the translation of Jambler thread, which has same purpose as AgoraDesk: protect people's privacy and anonymity. As a plus, this service was allowed by theymos to not be censored on the forum, so it's fully respecting all forum rules.

Since I consider this a very important project for the benefit of users as a whole, I translated this topic myself.

I would like to hear AOBTers opinion about this proposal.

You should start with this topic first. It's the easiest and shortest topic on PGP (Android).

Note: As for the PGP keys inside the post, I'm not sure if it should be replaced with the respective translators PGP keys (if have one). Because the main author might not be there to reply in different local boards or help users or encrypt or decrypt messages using PGP.

Out of the proposed topics about PGP, I agree that this is the most useful for many people (roughly 3/4 smartphone users are Android users) and the easiest way to learn fast how to encrypt/decrypt messages.

I also like the idea of replacing the code in the OP with our own PGP code.

As other members also chose this topic, let's add it to the list of translations in progress

I also believe it's a great decision and, since I considered this topic being very useful, I already translated it Please find here the Romanian translation: [Tutorial Android] Semnătură PGP – Criptează / Decriptează un mesaj. I am glad to be the first one which translated this topic, especially since Learn Bitcoin translated multiple topics of mine, thus I feel very good doing the same for him now.

Great job, LB, with this tutorial and thank you DS for proposing it!

This is a great achievement and congratulations for been the first person to translate it, but i noticed error in your translation, you are mistaken author to be 1miau instead of Learn Bitcoin, that's what i consider as error, sorry if am wrong.

Loool! Thank you for that as well! Of course it was an error I copy-pasted the header from a translation I made for 1miau and I forgot to add the correct author. But I corrected the error and I appreciate a lot your mention.

Great job, dear GB. I tried to import your PGP key, but it seems like it's the same as LB's, meaning you didn't replace LB's keys with your own. 

-DS 🧛‍♂️

[Learn Bitcoin]

Thank you, DS, for proposing it, and GB and others for translating it. I am very happy to see that one of my threads is getting translated into other languages.

Great job, dear GB. I tried to import your PGP key, but it seems like it's the same as LB's, meaning you didn't replace LB's keys with your own.

-DS 🧛‍♂️

It's because GB only did the translation. Trying the app and publishing your own PGP keys is unnecessary. If someone does, it's good. But, it's not mandatory.

I will post the link to Bangla translation as well.

Great job, dear GB.

Thank you, DS!

I tried to import your PGP key, but it seems like it's the same as LB's, meaning you didn't replace LB's keys with your own.

I did not replace it on purpose, in order to have the translation properly mirroring the original thread. Furthermore, LB wrote inside his topic that,

In my case, this is my Mobile Public key, which I generated a minute ago [...]

In my case, I am going to copy my other test key.

So bearing in mind that LB talked about his keys, also having in mind the translation should mirror the original, I kept all as it was. I could not add my key while LB wrote it's his key

It's because GB only did the translation. Trying the app and publishing your own PGP keys is unnecessary. If someone does, it's good. But, it's not mandatory.

Yes, this is correct.

I will post the link to Bangla translation as well.

Thank you, LB!

[Hatchy]

I did not replace it on purpose, in order to have the translation properly mirroring the original thread. Furthermore, LB wrote inside his topic that,

I already taught about this, during the debate about using our own keys. In the images posted by @Learn Bitcoin, it's clear he used his own keys. So, it's important to follow the translated version and use the ops keys instead of changing them to ours. Even though it won't impact readers negatively, it's a translated thread, and we should maintain the same details as the op( except for some certain translation where we are requested to use our own words)

Additionally, using our keys would mean creating our own image versions of the thread, which could be a lot of work for some members. It's great to see that @GazetaBitcoin has already finished his translation so quickly. I'll start working on the pidgin soon and should be done by next week.

[Porfirii]

Regarding using LB's keys or our own, I think that each translator should make that decision himself.

Gazeta and Hatchy are right when they say that translations usually should mirror the original (the contrary may mean distorting the original), but in this case it can be positive too to share our own keys if it encourages the participation in the local boards, and if LB agrees with these changes in the OP.

So, unless other members reason that it must be translated one way and not another, I don't think there is any problem with everyone doing it their own way.
