Translate "wrong language" bot message into other languages

Closed this issue · 3 comments

For further convenience to the bug tracker users, it would be nice if the bot would be able to respond to a user whose ticket it closed for being in a wrong language.

We need to decide:

  • Do we want to translate the messages in the first place?
  • To which languages should the message be translated?
  • Who can translate the message?

Some progress of translating the quick links part can be found in #56

I would definitely translate the messages if possible and use English as fallback. As for "which languages should be translated" I'd just go for "the more the better" — as I've already said, I would just drop the Crowdin translators a message and ask them for their help, then add all the translations I get back from them. :)

I believe by now the decision for

  • Do we want to translate the messages in the first place?

is a clear "no". Closing.
