Internationalized ToDo page(s)

Peter wrote: Would it help if as an initial step we placed a P2 for each image on translated pages that do not have localized images? This would enable us to maintain focus and would provide a visual cue as a prompt when the translators visit those pages.

Gale wrote: OK, but can I suggest a separate: ToDo-2i18n page otherwise the expansion of ToDo-2's may make it hard to find the links that mainly concern us on or regular ToDo-2.


Gale wrote: Richard von Molkte tells me he is getting close to finishing the Spanish Manual translation, so I will speak to him about images and I suggest you don't add P2 i18n's for Spanish pages at the moment.


Gale wrote (re navigation): I suggest adding a separate sidebar link in "For Editors" with link text "i18n P2".


Peter wrote: Should we be using this new P2 page for all P2s on translated pages? I would certainly find that useful as then I would only be looking at English Ps when I search.

Gale replied: Yes, that was the point of my suggestion.


Peter wrote: And does that mean we need a P1 and Px version of this new page.

Gale replied: Not now. At present I think this is just a way to track localisation of images.

Tutorial for CD remixing

This is a link to a draft tutorial for remixing a commercial CD: User:PeterSampson/Tutorial: Re-mixing a CD - Mock Up Version-1
This tutorial was originally written by Audacity user Chuck Moore ( Cfmoore1 ) who wanted to remix some Beatles 2009 Remastered CDs, the early ones which were originally mono but which the studio re-released in 2009 in a pseudo-stereo mix. The studio mix is indeed somewhat odd as it places the instruments on one side of the sound stage and the voices on the other. Sounds ok-ish on speakers if you don't listen closely - but sounds distictly odd on headphones. Chuck undertook for his debut project with Audacity a remix of Please Please Me and has recently finished With The Beatles. His objective was to create a more natural sound stage by taking sound clips and remixing (ambitious for a starter project). I gave him some help with this via the forum and through some PMs. I asked him if he would be good enough to write up his process as a tutorial; this is his draft (which I will Wiki-ise with Wiki markup formatting) - once that is done I will be seeking feedback from the manual "list". He says "I do not mind people putting their knives to what I wrote. The procedure is right but if the wording does not convey to the reader what I did then it needs to be changed."

  • Peter 18Jun10: Following f/b from when I first floated this tutorial idea I agree that it is not appropriate for the manual as it is too specific - accordingly.I will probably transfer it to the Wiki at some stage when I get some free time.
