*** Translating the app

We use Transifex, who generously support open-source projects. Please visit our Transifex page to create or correct translations for your language: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/android-galaxyzoo/

There are some sample screenshots here to help you to understand the context: https://github.com/murraycu/android-galaxyzoo/tree/master/screenshots_for_translators

*** Translating the website, to complete the app translation

The questions are not in the app itself.

Even if your language already has a translation of the website/decision-tree, you might look at that translation to decide what terminology to use when translating the app.

You can provide a translation of the Galaxy Zoo website that the app will then use, via: http://translations.zooniverse.org/

Previously these questions were in the Galaxy-Zoo github repository, so you might still find clues for your language's translation there: For instance: https://github.com/zooniverse/Galaxy-Zoo/tree/master/public/locales though the most recent translations now seem to be here instead: http://www.galaxyzoo.org/locales/LOCALE.json For instance: http://www.galaxyzoo.org/locales/fr.json

From those files, we use the translations of the "Decision Tree": https://github.com/zooniverse/Galaxy-Zoo/blob/master/app/lib/sloan_tree.coffee

Many thanks for all your help.
