Reviewing source strings¶
Source strings checks¶
Weblate includes quite a lot of Quality checks. Some of them also focus on quality of source strings. These can give you some hints for making strings easier to translate. You can check failing source checks on Source tab of every component.
Failing checks on translation¶
On the other side, failing translation checks might also indicate problem in the source strings. Translators often tend to fix some mistakes in translation instead of reporting it - typical example is missing full stop at the end of sentence, but there are more such cases.
Reviewing all failing checks on your translation can bring you valuable feedback for improving source strings as well.
String comments¶
Weblate allows translators to comment on both translation and source strings. Each Component configuration can be configured to receive such comments on email address and sending this to developers mailing list is usually best approach. This way you can monitor when translators find problems and fix them quickly.
