1: Translation server, spanish (almost) done
Posted by Michael Cordova on 09/30/09 11:26 PM
I've been reviewing the Spanish translation, and I've found some kind of error in numbers, about the "untranslated" and "deleted" keys.

Currently, the server has 6677 keys. According to /acs-lang/admin/ Spanish is 6.511 translated and 166 unstranslated.

In the Spanish package list index...

  • notifications: Translated = 50; untranslated = 3; total = 53
  • imsld: Translated: 429; untranslated: 72; total = 501

BUT in those package pages, numbers are different...

  • notifications: All (50) | Translated (50) | Untranslated (0) | Deleted (0)
  • imsld: Show: All (432) | Translated (428) | Untranslated (4) | Deleted (1)

    althoug only 3 are shown...
    1. imsld.Else_Identifier
    2. imsld.If_Identifier
    3. imsld.IMS-LD_Intifier

And finally, a strange case which I don't know how to deal with it...

  • Assessment has 6 keys blank in English.

Ok.. so here we go.

1. Regarding the first count on /acs-lang/admin those numbers include all the message keys, regardless of their status of deleted or not deleted.

2. In the Spanish package list index ( Lets focus on notifications ) we have:

Translated = 50, untranslated = 3 for a total of 53. Again, this numbers include all message keys ( whether they are deleted or not ).

3. Now, moving to the mesasge list filtered for notifications and locale es_ES. You have:

All ( 50 ) | Translated ( 50 ) | Untranslated (0) | Deleted (0).

I did check on the lang_messages table for the message keys that belong to the locale es_ES and package_ley notifications and, in effect, there are 50 entries; so.. where are those 3 message keys waiting to be translated? Well, it happen that those 3 message keys were deleted previously in the default locale ( en_US ) before they got to be translated into the locale es_ES. At first sight this is totally unclear from the numbers you get presented on this list. So I added an extra filter there, that will display to you those message keys deleted on the default locale that never got translated. So, you will see:

All ( 50 ) | Translated ( 50 ) | Untranslated (0) | Deleted (0) | Deleted on English (US) (3)

So you have a clear view of where those "missed" message keys.
