Contrôles de qualité et corrections#

The quality checks help catch common translator errors, ensuring the translation is in good shape. The checks can be ignored in case of false positives.

Once submitting a translation with a failing check, this is immediately shown to the user:

Automatic fixups#

In addition to Quality checks, Weblate can fix some common errors in translated strings automatically. Use it with caution to not have it add errors.

AUTOFIX_LIST

Trailing ellipsis replacer#

Replace trailing dots (...) with an ellipsis () to make it consistent with the source string.

Zero-width space removal#

Zero width space is typically not desired in the translation. This fix will remove it unless it is present in the source string as well.

Control characters removal#

Removes any control characters from the translation.

Devanagari danda#

Replaces wrong full stop in Devanagari by Devanagari danda ().

Espacement de ponctuation#

Nouveau dans la version 5.3.

Ensures French and Breton use correct punctuation spacing.

This fixup can be disabled via ignore-punctuation-spacing flag (which also disables Espacement de ponctuation).

Unsafe HTML cleanup#

When turned on using a safe-html flag it sanitizes HTML markup.

HTML non sûr

Trailing and leading whitespace fixer#

Makes leading and trailing whitespace consistent with the source string. The behavior can be fine-tuned using ignore-begin-space and ignore-end-space flags to skip processing parts of the string.

Quality checks#

Weblate employs a wide range of quality checks on strings. The following section describes them all in further detail. There are also language specific checks. Please file a bug if anything is reported in error.

Translation checks#

Executed upon every translation change, helping translators maintain good quality translations.

Balisage BBCode#

Summary:

Les BBCodes dans la traduction ne correspondent pas à la source

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.markup.BBCodeCheck

Check identifier:

bbcode

Flag to ignore:

ignore-bbcode

BBCode represents simple markup, like for example highlighting important parts of a message in bold font, or italics.

This check ensures they are also found in translation.

Note

The method for detecting BBCode is currently quite simple so this check might produce false positives.

Répétition de mots#

Nouveau dans la version 4.1.

Summary:

Le texte contient une répétition du même mot deux fois de suite :

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.duplicate.DuplicateCheck

Check identifier:

duplicate

Flag to ignore:

ignore-duplicate

Checks that no consecutive duplicate words occur in a translation. This usually indicates a mistake in the translation.

Indication

This check includes language specific rules to avoid false positives. In case it triggers falsely in your case, let us know. See Reporting issues in Weblate.

Non conforme au glossaire#

Nouveau dans la version 4.5.

Summary:

La traduction ne respecte pas les termes du glossaire.

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.glossary.GlossaryCheck

Check identifier:

check_glossary

Flag to enable:

check-glossary

Flag to ignore:

ignore-check-glossary

This check has to be turned on using check-glossary flag (see Customizing behavior using flags). Please consider following prior to enabling it:

  • It does exact string matching, the glossary is expected to contain terms in all variants.

  • Checking each string against glossary is expensive, it will slow down any operation in Weblate which involves running checks like importing strings or translating.

  • It also utilizes untranslatable glossary terms in Traduction inchangée.

Double espace#

Summary:

La traduction contient un double espace

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.chars.DoubleSpaceCheck

Check identifier:

double_space

Flag to ignore:

ignore-double-space

Checks that double space is present in translation to avoid false positives on other space-related checks.

Check is false when double space is found in source meaning double space is intentional.

Parties Fluent#

Nouveau dans la version 5.0.

Summary:

Les parties Fluent doivent correspondre

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.fluent.parts.FluentPartsCheck

Check identifier:

fluent-parts

Flag to enable:

fluent-parts

Flag to ignore:

ignore-fluent-parts

Each Fluent Message can have an optional value (the main text content), and optional attributes, each of which is a « part » of the Message. In Weblate, all these parts appear within the same block, using Fluent-like syntax to specify the attributes. For example:

This is the Message value
.title = This is the title attribute
.alt = This is the alt attribute

This check ensures that the translated Message also has a value if the source Message has one, or no value if the source has none. This also checks that the same attributes used in the source Message also appear in the translation, with no additions.

Note

This check is not applied to Fluent Terms since Terms always have a value, and Term attributes tend to be locale-specific (used for grammar rules, etc.), and are not expected to appear in all translations.

Fluent Attributes

Références Fluent#

Nouveau dans la version 5.0.

Summary:

Les références Fluent doivent correspondre

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.fluent.references.FluentReferencesCheck

Check identifier:

fluent-references

Flag to enable:

fluent-references

Flag to ignore:

ignore-fluent-references

A Fluent Message or Term can reference another Message, Term, Attribute, or a variable. For example:

Here is a { message }, a { message.attribute } a { -term } and a { $variable }.
Within a function { NUMBER($num, minimumFractionDigits: 2) }

Generally, translated Messages or Terms are expected to contain the same references as the source, although not necessarily in the same order of appearance. So this check ensures that translations use the same references in their value as the source value, the same number of times, and with no additions. For Messages, this will also check that each Attribute in the translation uses the same references as the matching Attribute in the source.

When the source or translation contains Fluent Select Expressions, then each possible variant in the source must be matched with at least one variant in the translation with the same references, and vice versa.

Moreover, if a variable reference appears both in the Select Expression’s selector and within one of its variants, then all variants may also be considered as if they also contain that reference. The assumption being that the variant’s key may have made the reference redundant for that variant. For example:

{ $num ->
    [one] an apple
   *[other] { $num } apples
}

Here, for the purposes of this check, the [one] variant will also be considered to contain the $num reference.

However, a reference within the Select Expression’s selector, which can only be a variable of a Term Attribute in Fluent’s syntax, will not by itself count as a required reference because they do not form the actual text content of the string that the end-user will see, and the presence of a Select Expression is considered locale-specific. For example:

{ -term.starts-with-vowel ->
    [yes] an { -term }
   *[no] a { -term }
}

Here a reference to -term.starts-with-vowel is not expected to appear in translations, but a reference to -term is.

HTML interne de la traduction Fluent#

Nouveau dans la version 5.0.

Summary:

La cible Fluent doit être un code HTML interne valide qui correspond à

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.fluent.inner_html.FluentTargetInnerHTMLCheck

Check identifier:

fluent-target-inner-html

Flag to enable:

fluent-target-inner-html

Flag to ignore:

ignore-fluent-target-inner-html

This check will verify that the translated value of a Message or Term contains the same HTML elements as the source value.

First, if the source value fails the HTML interne de la source Fluent check, then this check will do nothing. Otherwise, the translated value will also be checked under the same conditions.

Second, the HTML elements found in the translated value will be compared against the HTML elements found in the source value. Two elements will match if they share the exact same tag name, the exact same attributes and values, and all their ancestors match in the same way. This check will ensure that all the elements in the source appear somewhere in the translation, with the same number of appearances, and with no additional elements added. When there are multiple elements in the value, they need not appear in the same order in the translation value.

When the source or translation contains Fluent Select Expressions, then each possible variant in the source must be matched with at least one variant in the translation with the same HTML elements, and vice versa.

When using Fluent in combination with the Fluent DOM package, this check will ensure that the translation also includes any required data-l10n-name elements that appear in the source, or any of the allowed inline elements like <br>.

For example, the following source:

Source message <img data-l10n-name="icon"/> with icon

would match with:

Translated message <img data-l10n-name="icon"/> with icon

but not:

Translated message <img data-l10n-name="new-val"/> with icon

nor

Translated message <br data-l10n-name="icon"/> with no icon

Syntaxe de traduction Fluent#

Nouveau dans la version 5.0.

Summary:

Erreur de syntaxe Fluent dans la traduction

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.fluent.syntax.FluentTargetSyntaxCheck

Check identifier:

fluent-target-syntax

Flag to enable:

fluent-target-syntax

Flag to ignore:

ignore-fluent-target-syntax

In Weblate, Fluent strings use Fluent syntax for references and variables, but also for more complex features like defining attributes and selector variants, including plurals. This check ensures that the syntax used in the translation will be valid for Fluent.

Formatted strings#

Checks that the formatting in strings is replicated between both source and translation. Omitting format strings in translation usually causes severe problems, so the formatting in strings should usually match the source.

Weblate supports checking format strings in several languages. The check is not enabled automatically, only if a string is flagged appropriately (e.g. c-format for C format). Gettext adds this automatically, but you will probably have to add it manually for other file formats or if your PO files are not generated by xgettext.

Most of the format checks allow omitting format strings for plural forms having a single count. This allows translators to write nicer strings for these cases (One apple instead of %d apple). Turn this off by adding strict-format flag.

The flags can be customized per string (see Additional info on source strings) or in a Configuration des composants. Having it defined per component is simpler, but it can lead to false positives in case the string is not interpreted as a formatting string, but format string syntax happens to be used.

Indication

In case specific format check is not available in Weblate, you can use generic Balises de remplacement.

Besides checking, this will also highlight the formatting strings to easily insert them into translated strings:

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.icu.ICUMessageFormatCheck

Check identifier:

icu_message_format

Flag to enable:

icu-message-format

Flag to ignore:

ignore-icu-message-format

Interpolation example:

There {number, plural, one {is one apple} other {are # apples}}.

This check has support for both pure ICU MessageFormat messages as well as ICU with simple XML tags. You can configure the behavior of this check by using icu-flags:*, either by opting into XML support or by disabling certain sub-checks. For example, the following flag enables XML support while disabling validation of plural sub-messages:

icu-message-format, icu-flags:xml:-plural_selectors

xml

Enable support for simple XML tags. By default, XML tags are parsed loosely. Stray < characters are ignored if they are not reasonably part of a tag.

strict-xml

Enable support for strict XML tags. All < characters must be escaped if they are not part of a tag.

-highlight

Disable highlighting placeholders in the editor.

-require_other

Disable requiring sub-messages to have an other selector.

-submessage_selectors

Skip checking that sub-message selectors match the source.

-types

Ne pas vérifier que les types de marqueurs de position correspondent à la source.

-extra

Skip checking that no placeholders are present that were not present in the source string.

-missing

Skip checking that no placeholders are missing that were present in the source string.

Additionally, when strict-xml is not enabled but xml is enabled, you can use the icu-tag-prefix:PREFIX flag to require that all XML tags start with a specific string. For example, the following flag will only allow XML tags to be matched if they start with <x::

icu-message-format, icu-flags:xml, icu-tag-prefix:"x:"

This would match <x:link>click here</x:link> but not <strong>this</strong>.

Check class:

weblate.checks.consistency.ConsistencyCheck

Check identifier:

inconsistent

Flag to ignore:

ignore-inconsistent

Weblate checks translations of the same string across all translation within a project to help you keep consistent translations.

The check fails on differing translations of one string within a project. This can also lead to inconsistencies in displayed checks. You can find other translations of this string on the Other occurrences tab.

Cette vérification s’applique à tous les composants d’un projet dont l’option Permettre la propagation de la traduction est activée.

Indication

For performance reasons, the check might not find all inconsistencies, it limits number of matches.

Note

This check also fires in case the string is translated in one component and not in another. It can be used as a quick way to manually handle strings which are untranslated in some components just by clicking on the Use this translation button displayed on each line in the Other occurrences tab.

You can use Traduction automatique add-on to automate translating of newly added strings which are already translated in another component.

Checks that translations are of acceptable length to fit available space. This only checks for the length of translation characters.

Unlike the other checks, the flag should be set as a key:value pair like max-length:100.

Indication

This check looks at number of chars, what might not be the best metric when using proportional fonts to render the text. The Taille maximale de la traduction check does check actual rendering of the text.

The replacements: flag might be also useful to expand placeables before checking the string.

Le texte rendu par la traduction ne doit pas dépasser une taille donnée. Elle fait le rendu du texte avec un retour à la ligne et vérifie s’il tient dans les limites données.

Cette vérification nécessite un ou deux paramètres - largeur maximale et nombre maximal de lignes. Si le nombre de lignes n’est pas indiqué, une seule ligne sera autorisée.

Vous pouvez également configurer la police utilisée à l’aide des directives font-* (voir Customizing behavior using flags), par exemple les drapeaux de traduction suivants indiquent que le texte rendu avec la police Ubuntu de taille 22 doit tenir sur deux lignes et 500 pixels :

max-size:500:2, font-family:ubuntu, font-size:22

Indication

You might want to set font-* directives in Configuration des composants to have the same font configured for all strings within a component. You can override those values per string in case you need to customize it per string.

The replacements: flag might be also useful to expand placeables before checking the string.

weblate.checks.consistency.PluralsCheck

Check identifier:

plurals

Flag to ignore:

ignore-plurals

Checks that all plural forms of a source string have been translated. Specifics on how each plural form is used can be found in the string definition.

Failing to fill in plural forms will in some cases lead to displaying nothing when the plural form is in use.

Flag to enable:

placeholders

Flag to ignore:

ignore-placeholders

Modifié dans la version 4.3: Vous pouvez utiliser des expressions rationnelles comme substitut.

Modifié dans la version 4.13: With the case-insensitive flag, the placeholders are not case-sensitive.

Translation is missing some placeholders. These are either extracted from the translation file or defined manually using placeholders flag, more can be separated with colon, strings with space can be quoted:

placeholders:$URL$:$TARGET$:"some long text"

In case you have some syntax for placeholders, you can use a regular expression:

placeholders:r"%[^% ]%"

You can also have case insensitive placeholders:

placeholders:$URL$:$TARGET$,case-insensitive

Traduction inchangée#

Summary:

La chaîne source et la chaîne traduite sont identiques

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.same.SameCheck

Check identifier:

same

Flag to ignore:

ignore-same

Happens if the source and corresponding translation strings is identical, down to at least one of the plural forms. Some strings commonly found across all languages are ignored, and various markup is stripped. This reduces the number of false positives.

This check can help find strings mistakenly untranslated.

The default behavior of this check is to exclude words from the built-in blacklist from the checking. These are words which are frequently not being translated. This is useful to avoid false positives on short strings, which consist only of single word which is same in several languages. This blacklist can be disabled by adding strict-same flag to string or component.

Modifié dans la version 4.17: With check-glossary flag (see Non conforme au glossaire), the untranslatable glossary terms are excluded from the checking.

HTML non sûr#

Check class:

weblate.checks.markup.SafeHTMLCheck

Check identifier:

safe-html

Flag to enable:

safe-html

Flag to ignore:

ignore-safe-html

The translation uses unsafe HTML markup. This check has to be enabled using safe-html flag (see Customizing behavior using flags). There is also accompanied autofixer which can automatically sanitize the markup.

Indication

When md-text flag is also used, the Markdown style links are also allowed.

Balisage XML#

Summary:

Les balises XML dans la traduction ne correspondent pas à la source

Portée:

translated strings

Check class:

weblate.checks.markup.XMLTagsCheck

Check identifier:

xml-tags

Flag to ignore:

ignore-xml-tags

This usually means the resulting output will look different. In most cases this is not a desired result from changing the translation, but occasionally it is.

Checks that XML tags are replicated between both source and translation.

The check is automatically enabled for XML like strings. You might need to add xml-text flag in some cases to force turning it on.

Note

This check is disabled by the safe-html flag as the HTML cleanup done by it can produce HTML markup which is not valid XML.

Check class:

weblate.checks.chars.ZeroWidthSpaceCheck

Check identifier:

zero-width-space

Flag to ignore:

ignore-zero-width-space

Zero-width space (<U+200B>) characters are used to break messages within words (word wrapping).

Source checks#

Source checks can help developers improve the quality of source strings.

Points de suspension#

Summary:

Cette chaîne contient trois points (…) au lieu du caractère points de suspension (…)

Check class:

weblate.checks.source.EllipsisCheck

Check identifier:

ellipsis

Flag to ignore:

ignore-ellipsis

This fails when the string uses three dots (...) when it should use an ellipsis character ().

Using the Unicode character is in most cases the better approach and looks better rendered, and may sound better with text-to-speech.

HTML interne de la source Fluent#

Nouveau dans la version 5.0.

Summary:

La source Fluent doit être du HTML interne valide

Portée:

chaînes sources

Check class:

weblate.checks.fluent.inner_html.FluentSourceInnerHTMLCheck

Check identifier:

fluent-source-inner-html

Flag to enable:

fluent-source-inner-html

Flag to ignore:

ignore-fluent-source-inner-html

Fluent is often used in contexts where the value for a Message (or Term) is meant to be used directly as .innerHTML (rather than .textContent) for some HTML element. For example, when using the Fluent DOM package.

The aim of this check is to predict how the value will be parsed as inner HTML, assuming a HTML5 conforming parser, to catch cases where there would be some « unintended » loss of the string, without being too strict about technical parsing errors that do not lead to a loss of the string.

This check is applied to the value of Fluent Messages or Terms, but not their Attributes. For Messages, the Fluent Attributes are often just HTML attribute values, so can be arbitrary strings. For Terms, the Fluent Attributes are often language properties that can only be referenced in the selectors of Fluent Select Expressions.

Generally, most Fluent values are not expected to contain any HTML markup. Therefore, this check does not expect or want translators and developers to have to care about strictly avoiding any technical HTML5 parsing errors (let alone XHTML parsing errors). Instead, this check will just want to warn them when they may have unintentionally opened a HTML tag or inserted a character reference.

Moreover, for the Fluent values that intentionally contain HTML tags or character references, this check will verify some « good practices », such as matching closing and ending tags, valid character references, and quoted attribute values. In addition, whilst the HTML5 specification technically allows for quite arbitrary tag and attribute names, this check will restrain them to some basic ASCII values that should cover the standard HTML5 element tags and attributes, as well as allow some custom element or attribute names. This is partially to ensure that the user is using HTML intentionally.

Examples:

Valeur

Warns?

Reason

three<four

oui

The <four part would be lost as .innerHTML.

three < four

non

The .innerHTML would match the .textContent.

three <four>

oui

Missing a closing tag.

three <four/>

oui

four is not a HTML void element, so should not self-close.

<a-b>text</a-b>

non

Custom element tag with a matching closing tag.

a <img/> b

non

img is a HTML void element. Self-closing is allowed.

a <br> b

non

br is a HTML void element.

<img class=a/>

oui

The attribute value is not quoted.

<aØ attr=''/>

oui

Non-ASCII tag name.

kind&ethical

oui

The &eth part would be converted to ð.

kind&eth;ical

non

The character reference seems to be intentional.

three&lte;four

oui

The &lte; part would be converted to <e;.

three&lf;four

oui

The character reference is not valid.

three<{ $val }

oui

The Fluent variable may unintentionally become a tag.

&l{ $val }

oui

The Fluent variable may unintentionally become a character reference.

Note

This check will not ensure the inner HTML is safe or sanitized, and is not meant to protect against malicious attempts to alter the inner HTML. Moreover, it should be remembered that Fluent variables and references may expand to arbitrary strings, so could expand to arbitrary HTML unless they are escaped. As an exception, a < or & character before a Fluent reference will trigger this check since even an escaped value could lead to unexpected results.

Note

The Fluent DOM package has further limitations, such as allowed tags and attributes, which this check will not enforce.

Syntaxe Fluent source#

Check class:

weblate.checks.source.MultipleFailingCheck

Check identifier:

multiple_failures

Flag to ignore:

ignore-multiple-failures

Numerous translations of this string have failing quality checks. This is usually an indication that something could be done to improve the source string.

This check failing can quite often be caused by a missing full stop at the end of a sentence, or similar minor issues which translators tend to fix in translation, while it would be better to fix it in the source string.

Multiples variables non nommées#

Nouveau dans la version 4.1.

Summary:

Il y a plusieurs variables non nommées dans la chaîne, ce qui rend impossible leur réorganisation par les traducteurs

Portée:

Check class:

weblate.checks.format.MultipleUnnamedFormatsCheck

Check identifier:

unnamed_format

Flag to ignore:

ignore-unnamed-format

There are multiple unnamed variables in the string, making it impossible for translators to reorder them.

Consider using named variables instead to allow translators to reorder them.

Non pluralisé#

Summary:

Cette chaîne est utilisée comme un pluriel, sans utiliser les formes plurielles

Portée:

Check class:

weblate.checks.source.OptionalPluralCheck

Check identifier:

optional_plural

Flag to ignore:

ignore-optional-plural

The string is used as a plural, but does not use plural forms. In case your translation system supports this, you should use the plural aware variant of it.

For example with Gettext in Python it could be:

from gettext import ngettext

print(ngettext("Selected %d file", "Selected %d files", files) % files)
