Non-English categories
Hi there,
For all these non-English categories, where do you source the translations?

- Hello.
- I'm generally cross referencing the descriptions of a category that is completed in the same language that says "this is a list of [quality] items" and the corresponding Collector's page in that language and adding it to the description, as well as linking to that page. For example, the Italian page for Strange items has the description "Una lista di oggetti Strani nel gioco," and the Italian page for Collector's items refers to them as "Da collezione," so I swap out "Straini" with that for the Collector's category page.
- I will admit that I am not knowledgeable in these languages, so it's likely that these translations are incorrect or inaccurate, which in that case is my mistake for attempting do do something I am not qualified for and could have me blocked/banned or whatever punishment is required. If it is possible, I can only create the category pages without trying to translate since some of the other category pages only have the "Category:[quality]/[langauge]" tags included. My intent was only to help clear out missing categories, so I apologize if my attempts at translating are creating issues.

- Generally it's fine, although it doesn't really work for every language so I would avoid any sentences on there. Perhaps just the categories is fine. Also don't worry about being banned or blocked, it doesn't happen as easily as simply doing something like this, the edits are always appreciated. | s | GrampaSwood (talk) 22:24, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

- Okay, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for the heads-up. Burrvuhvurr (talk) 22:28, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
