Um....
dom 16 nov 2008 17:28:09 UTC da LozfanI do not know this language. Maybe there should be a built-in link to Babelfish by all posts for translation.
Translation

"Give please, I signed up but when I want to add a comment to me once again offer a sign that I need to do to leave a comment?"
But I am not exactly sure what that means... :(
Re: Um....
lun 17 nov 2008 06:49:07 UTC da SamiWell, I'd personally prefer to read posts in English instead of adding a link to a translation service...
Maybe
lun 17 nov 2008 14:16:23 UTC da BobJamMaybe a civil note from the WOT folks on that person's profile page might convince them that they'd stand a better chance of getting their questions answered if they posted in English . . . though I noticed on their profile page that they only have this one post and are apparently new to this forum.
Well...
mer 19 nov 2008 03:40:14 UTC da LozfanI didn't mean add a link to run the text through babelfish, I meant the "Translate this page" type.
i thank
gio 20 nov 2008 21:36:00 UTC da ennerenthanks all who answered me. even you don't understand what it mean :))
I can be the interface.
ven 28 nov 2008 19:54:27 UTC da DarthSwarovskiThey want to know why they're being prompted to register again when they want to add a comment, even though they're duly registered. If anybody has a correct solution to this, I'll post it in Russian to the OP.
Привет! Я перевела и жду ответ.
It might be because he's not
ven 28 nov 2008 22:59:11 UTC da FlyAquaIt might be because he's not logged in. This might be because of cookie settings or firewalls. Also, make sure that the option "Allow the add-on to log me in automatically" on the settings page is activated.

Anyone translate? ;-)
dom 14 dic 2008 09:10:17 UTC da FlyAquaAnyone translate? ;-)
Okay, this is English forum,
dom 14 dic 2008 09:46:46 UTC da lordpakeOkay, this is English forum, that much should be clear to anyone ...
Yet people insist on posting in their native language? How about some heavy-handed moderating to deal with posts like that?

We're not all living in america...
dom 14 dic 2008 10:21:57 UTC da phantazmWe're not all living in america, and strange as it may sound, some people know some languages but not english. Of course english is the most practical (at least in our end of the world), but I don't think any should be banned for writing in non-english. As long as a reply may appear, time's not wasted. I'd still love a translation, though...
re not all americans
dom 14 dic 2008 10:36:26 UTC da cod headWell I am a brit but phantazm has a point.I can only speak my native language and I suppose its hard to expect everyone to speak english.Has wot is multi cultural I have no objection if someone posts in there own language.If they get a reply or not I suppose would be down to if anyone else understands the posting.But if someone could translate it for them they would get more offers of help.
None of you ever visit any
dom 14 dic 2008 11:53:50 UTC da lordpakeNone of you ever visit any larger forums then? There's a good reason to not allow multiple languages in one forum, or if allowed, they have their own subforum(s) entirely.
Now we have russian here, what happens when more and more languages appear? Finnish, swedish, swahili, mandarin etc.? Just a virtual mess which benefits no one, because information becomes too hard to even find when you have to go through page after page of foreign languages.
Add to that the need to have moderators who are fluent with that language. Otherwise you can have all sorts of unwanted content posted and forum staff would be totally oblivious to that.
And I wasn't talking about banning btw. by 'heavy-handed' I refer to outright deletion :)
Edit: and Phantazm, I am not american :) nor am I from Britain or any of Her former colonies.
"Men make good pets."
Well, I guess that guy can't
dom 14 dic 2008 11:58:37 UTC da FlyAquaWell, I guess that guy can't even understand what you're writing.
Take me for an example: I'm from Germany, and I see the website in German. When I was new I almost wrote my first post in German, because I simply assumed the entire page was available in that language, until I noticed that all the posts were in English.
So if someone sees the page in Russian and can't speak English, they might assume the same. If the page is available in Russian, then there must be someone speaking Russian, and stuff.
So I think we should respect other languages as well and not ban all posts that are different. But I don't think that this question will ever be answered...
This has nothing to do with
dom 14 dic 2008 12:05:18 UTC da lordpakeThis has nothing to do with respect of other languages. It has to do with properly moderated community.
Let me rephrase my previous concern: Current situation is no one knows if those russian posts are in fact spam (or some other unwanted msg) or not!
"Men make good pets."
Echo
dom 14 dic 2008 13:05:59 UTC da BobJamI will side with Lordpake, and repeat the statement that "This has nothing to do with respect of other languages. It has to do with properly moderated community."
Lordpake has some reasonable arguments, especially about the notion of "subforums" for other languages and the thing about this main forum getting inundated with all manner of unintelligible stuff.
If this forum becomes a place for different language use, I think it might be a good idea for the WOT staff to create those "subforums". On the other hand, if this language thing stays as only an issue in this one particular thread, then I think creating subforums right now is probably overkill . . . a non-abusive (which I'm sure the WOT folks would do anyway) reminder might be sufficient . . . in Russian of course.
Re: This has nothing to do with
dom 14 dic 2008 14:18:18 UTC da SamiCurrent situation is no one knows if those russian posts are in fact spam (or some other unwanted msg) or not!
Google Translate usually gives a pretty good idea of what the message says. Of course, if someone starts posting in Swahili, we'll have no choice but to delete the message. I still agree that we should keep the forum in English.

Well according to the idea must be included on Cooks for this site and fulfillment of the scripts (look it does not stand in [tya] Of noScript), like other problems with the authorization it did not note. Are truth what that small Glucks. Better make just in case so - burdens Cooks cache, then look in order to for this site Cooks and the fulfillment of scripts was permitted.

Correct Translations
dom 14 dic 2008 16:01:26 UTC da AthloniteHey Everyone!!
I have nothing against people speaking other languages and posting in this forum but,
IMO , it would be imperative to have someone CORRECTLY translate the members
question or answer (sorry phantazm but, that translation from Bablefish is not comprehensible). IF you ever need a text translated from French ,I would be happy to oblige and a little in Spanish but, it would probably end up sounding like the translated Russian.
My point is that, if we are to provide or offer assistance, we Must have the ability to
understand the members question .
Athlonite
Your help is always needed.
Request a translation..?
dom 14 dic 2008 16:22:49 UTC da phantazmI agree, the translation is not very good. Still better than nothing. ;-)
Athlonite: "IF you ever need a text translated from French,
I would be happy to oblige and a little in Spanish..."
That might be the beginning of a new feature: "Request a translation".
This could not only apply to posts, but websites and scam mails as well.
PS: Actually WOT is already multi lingual: english is only one of several language options. As example russian is also possible, and finnish of course. But please consider english, if possible; you'll get much more response...
The translation
dom 14 dic 2008 23:51:12 UTC da DarthSwarovskiIn a nutshell, since I offered to be the liaison but had to take a couple of days off, the d00d told the OP to make sure the Cookies and scripts are enabled, to clear his Cache, and log in back under his username.
If help is necessary I speak Portuguese and Russian.
PS: Jeebus, I wonder if some unfortunate Firefox & WOT user posts a question in Arabic what a scandal it will be. Srsly.
Arabic?

I doubt it. Arabic isn't an available language option. If you can only read/write in arabic, then you wouldn't understand WOT at all. You wouldn't even know how to post...
