L8: Spanish translation missing strings in Lesson 8 (Defining a variable)

[Aodham]

Describe the issue

In the Spanish translation of Lesson 8 ("Defining Your Own Variables"), the section "Defining a variable" contains untranslated strings.

These entries have empty msgstr fields in the PO file, which causes that paragraph to appear in English in the app.

Details

The missing translations correspond to the following section:
"Defining a variable"

Several consecutive strings under that heading have msgstr "".

Expected behavior

All strings in the Spanish PO file should have translated msgstr entries so that the full lesson appears in Spanish in the app.

Please let me know if corrections should be submitted via Weblate or through a pull request.

Thanks for considering contributing translations. You can use the program that you prefer, either Weblate or any translation program that you might already be familiar with.

Weblate is mainly provided as a way for people to contribute without needing a GitHub account or knowing how to do pull requests.

You can find more detailed instructions here on how to participate to the community translations of this app. If you have any questions or need anything, feel free to reach out anytime! https://github.com/GDQuest/learn-gdscript-translations?tab=readme-ov-file#working-with-translations

Hi, thanks for the reply. However, the documentation you linked to actually states:

"We hired a professional translator to translate the app to Spanish fully, so we currently don't need contributions in Spanish."

Since Spanish is listed as fully translated, the missing strings in Lesson 8 would be an oversight in the official translation rather than a gap for the community to fill. Could this be reviewed on your end?

[NathanLovato]

Thanks for the reminder. Actually, this is outdated. We did that for the first version of the application a couple years back. Now maintenance of the translations are left to the community.

Unfortunately, I never found any school or sponsor or anyone who would financially support this open source project (despite e.g. many schools, including expensive private ones, using this in their curriculum). For now, I take of the maintenance of the program itself and the English version. But I have to draw a sustainable line.

So it ends up being the same model as the official Godot documentation (which the app is part of), where GDQuest provides the English version and then translations are left to communities who'd like to contribute in those languages.

I'll update the README now.

Thanks for the clarification and for updating the README.

I completely understand the need to draw sustainable boundaries, especially in open source projects.

In that case, I’ll go ahead and contribute the missing strings in Lesson 8 via Weblate.

Thanks again for maintaining the project.
