If your English isn't that good, and you wish to translate from another language, or if you want to use a second language as a reference while translating, our Pootle server has the second-language feature enabled. You can view the German, Spanish, French, Japanese, Continental Portuguese and Russian strings while you translate from English.

These five languages are available on the server in read-only format. Some of them have been partially translated by Decathlon translators, but we're currently sorting out the identities of their translators.

To activate a second source language in Pootle, go to your profile page and select the second language under Alternative Source Language.

Translators' names and e-mail addresses are usually included in the translated files automatically. We also believe that translators should be given credit for their translations.

The following information reflects the situation between January 2008 and July 2009 (we don't keep statistics automatically). The “activity” column represents the number of lines translated or edited.
