Terminology
Hi!
Thank you for your translations!
I've noticed that you added a translation of a Vietnamese term to message documentation. This is not a sustainable way to do this, because there's no room in qqq for all the languages, so I deleted it.
However, this term that you've written, as well as other Vietnamese, should be documented somewhere. The good ways to list terminologies are:
- Write a Localization guidelines page for your language, and add a terminology table there. Currently, there is no Localization guidelines page for Vietnamese at all, so you can be bold and create it. Every language needs different guidelines, so the format is free for you to choose. You can see examples here: Category:Language-specific localisation style guides. You can see examples of terminology tables in Hebrew (he) and Urdu (ur). In addition to terminology, you can include style recommendations, technical instructions for PLURAL, etc.
- Use the terminology gadget. This gadget stores its information separately from the localization guidelines page, and you may use both. I recommend using the gadget for terms that are clear and well-structured, and the localization guidelines page for terms that require more explanation.
