My Contribution
Silverstrike is an open source project and its GitHub repository is available at:
https://github.com/simhnna/silverstrike.
You are able to find the translation project on Crowdin through the following link:
https://crowdin.com/project/silverstrike/zh-CN#.
Its source language is English and I translated it to Chinese Simplified. Before my translation, it was not started yet. You can confirm this through the following image. As can be seen from the image, the progressive bar is 0%.
After my translation, the progressive bar went from 0% to 100%. You can check the result through the following image as well.
Now when you look at the project on Crowdin, you will notice that the Chinese Simplified icon are moved from the Needs Translation section to the Translated but Needs to be Voted section, as shown in the image below.
Final words
One of the difficulties for me to post a translation work through Utopian.io is that I am not sure which GitHub repository I should use sometimes. This is because in many cases there are more options of the GitHub repository for me to choose from. After working on translation projects, I have gained a little bit experience on this thing. Ways you could adopt to get the right GitHub repository includes:
- Check the project’s description: for some projects, when you click the title of that project, it will lead you to their description page. Sometimes they provide GitHub repository directly on that page.
- Check the project’s author (See following image for details). You can find this information either at the title or the information page of the project.
- Check each GitHub repository from the options provided for you by Utopian.io.
If you still cannot find the correct repository, the last resort you could use is to send a request to the author through the contact function on Crowdin. Hope this helps you in some way. Have fun!
