Description
Our translation system works but it has evolved and we learned a lot over time, e.g.:
- Don't capitalize at the beginning of a translation (if it is not capitalized in the respective language)
- Don't translate punctuation marks at the end (e.g. a question mark) which should be "hard coded"
Although we making new translations more correct now, the former ones should be cleaned up. This could be a bit of work because all translated languages must have to be checked and correctly "refilled".
E.g. if a translation identifier changed to a non capitalized beginning the former translation still can be used (not capitalized), but it still needs some manual work to go through them.
In case somebody has the time/motivation to do this please contact me before to discuss what/how to do this.
Some notes:- Documentation: Translations workflow
- Especially JavaScript confirm messages should be overhauled
- I'm still not sure how to best translate bigger text blocks

In the German translation, there are 5 'Y's for the year. Maybe also change them to 'JJJJ' and 'DD' to 'TT'?
