607676 - Localize Tumucumaque landing page in Japanese and Portuguese

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[David Boswell]

This is a bug to track localizing the Tumucumaque landing page into Japanese and Portuguese.  Full text to localize can be found on the en-US version of the page at

http://www.mozilla.org/parks/tumucumaque/

I can post the copy as a text-only attachment if that is helpful for anyone.

Attachment: Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR) translation

if first line is too long for a title, "Parque Tumucumaque" is an alternative

Comment 4

[Fernando Pereira Silveira]

just a note: Tumucumaque park ISN'T located in northeastern Brazil.
Actually, it's in northern Brazil. :-)

Comment 5

[Chelsea Novak [:chelsea]]

That bit of the copy was approved by the scientists at the WWF who insisted that we list it as in northeastern Brazil.

Comment 6

[David Boswell]

Fernando, that was super fast.  Impressive :)

I'm seeing some odd looking characters when viewing the attachment.  Could you confirm that the text is showing up in that file in the correct way?

Comment 7

[David Boswell]

I took the text from Fernando's attachment and put a page up at:

http://www.mozilla.org/parks/tumucumaque/index.br.html

As noted earlier, there are a lot of odd looking characters in there.  Maybe Bugzilla garbled things in the uploading process?  Fernando, feel free to email me directly with the text or maybe try reposting?

looks like I attached the file with wrong encoding. fixing it now (though you can see current file setting file encoding to UTF-8)

sorry, this is the right one

Comment 11

[David Boswell]

Thanks for the new attachment.  I added this text and it looks much better.  Please let me know if I messed anything up when copying over.  I'll also post to MozBR for review.

A couple of notes:

* The intro text is a little longer in Portuguese and is shifting some of the layout around.  I'll try tweaking the margins a bit, but if we could say the same thing in slightly fewer words that would be good too.

* I'm asking the designer to create a donate button with Portuguese text (I know the right way to do this is with an HTML button and I'll go back and do that if there's time but since we just need one more donate button adding one more image can work).

hmmm, maybe you could use this in place:

O Parque Nacional das Montanhas do Tumucumaque é o lar de felinos majestosos como a onça-pintada. É também o codinome do Firefox 4. Estamos apoiando a WWF na conservação da Amazônia para manter lugares como o Parque de Tumucumaque protegidos. Ajude-nos!

less words than that would lose much relevant information :-/

Comment 13

[David Boswell]

Thanks -- this shorter text gives the layout a little more room when the window gets narrower.

Comment 14

[David Boswell]

The donate button on the Portuguese page now has the right text, so I believe this page has all of the elements in it now.  We can still tweak text as needed.  

There may also be some other strings to localize as the campaign goes on -- such as snippet, promo for Virtual Park, banners, etc.

Comment 15

[Fernando Pereira Silveira]

the donation page doesn't exist, though

Comment 16

[Chelsea Novak [:chelsea]]

Good eye. It's still in development. Hopefully it will be ready next week.

Comment 17

[Fernando Pereira Silveira]

Attachment: pt-BR strings (ISO-8859-1)

this is a new review, suggested by Chelsea and WWF

Comment 18

[David Boswell]

I posted the copy from comment #17 on the page.  Please make sure things were copied correctly.

The intro paragraph is a bit longer than before and we're running into the same spacing issue -- if there are 2 or 3 words we could cut that would be great.  If not, I could add some extra spacing below the button.

Comment 19

[Fernando Pereira Silveira]

you're right; I forgot the intro text had changed. the same paragraph from comment #12 can be used:

O Parque Nacional das Montanhas do Tumucumaque é o lar de felinos majestosos
como a onça-pintada. É também o codinome do Firefox 4. Estamos apoiando a WWF
na conservação da Amazônia para manter lugares como o Parque de Tumucumaque
protegidos. Ajude-nos!

Comment 20

[David Boswell]

I added the first paragraph from comment #12 back in.  It should be live in a few minutes.  Please let me know if it was copied incorrectly.

Attachment: Japanese localization of Tumucumaque landing page

Comment 22

[David Boswell]

The Japanese landing page is now up at

http://www.mozilla.org/parks/tumucumaque/index.jp.html

Comment 23

[David Boswell]

As part of having localized landing pages, we'd like to have localized snippets pointing people to the Japanese and Portuguese Tumucumaque pages.  

The English snippet text is:

Firefox 4 is code-named Tumucumaque, after the world's largest rainforest park. <link>Help Mozilla protect natural ecosystems today</link>.

If we could have this localized by the end of the week, we'll be able to get these in for the February snippets.

Comment 24

[Clauber Stipkovic [:cstipkovic]]

Hey David, 

The translation of this snippet is:
"Ajude a Mozilla a proteger eco sistemas naturais hoje"

Comment 25

[Fernando Pereira Silveira]

Brazilian Portuguese:

O Firefox 4 chama-se Tumucumaque em homenagem à maior floresta tropical do planeta.
<link>Ajude a Mozilla a proteger ecossistemas naturais hoje.</link>

Comment 26

[David Boswell]

Great, thanks.  With the link that would be:

O Firefox 4 chama-se Tumucumaque em homenagem à maior floresta tropical do
planeta. <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/parks/tumucumaque/index.br.html">Ajude a Mozilla a proteger ecossistemas naturais hoje</a>.

Comment 27

[Kohei]

Japanese:

Firefox 4 は、世界最大の熱帯雨林公園の名前を取って Tumucumaque (トゥムクマケ) というコードネームになりました。<a href="http://www.mozilla.org/parks/tumucumaque/index.jp.html">自然の生態系を守る Mozilla の取り組みにご協力ください</a>。

Comment 28

[David Boswell]

Very cool.  Thanks for the very fast turnaround on both of those localizations.

Comment 29

Attachment: Japanese localization of Tumucumaque landing page, revised

David, we'd like to modify two words on the Japanese page. Could you commit this?

ツムクマケ -> トゥムクマケ
熱帯林公園 -> 熱帯雨林公園

Comment 30

[David Boswell]

OK, updated copy checked in.  Please verify this is correct when the page updates.

Attachment: Japanese localization of Tumucumaque landing page, revised again

Oh sorry, we have more edits:
Tumucumaque (トゥムクマケ) -> トゥムクマケ (Tumucumaque)
to fit with the other materials, and a remaining typo ツクマケ.

The modified file attached. We believe this is final...

Comment 32

[David Boswell]

OK, I checked in the latest index.jp.html version.  Please make sure this is showing up correctly on the site.

Comment 33

[Kohei]

Great, thank you!

Comment 34

[David Boswell]

Closing as fixed since I think we've localized everything we need to.  Feel free to reopen if there's anything we missed.

Thanks everyone!
