Tell us all the things that i18n broke!

Please use this thread to list any issues that you find with things that have gone weird due to i18n. This normally manifests as seeing HTML written out, or things like “Title” where there should acutally be a title.


I noticed this on the Common Lisp and Zig tracks on different exercises today. This occurs on Safari 17.6 (19618.3.11.11.5) but not Zen 1.14.11b (based on Firefox 141.0.3).

Thanks. Deploying a fix! This was caused by our i18n changes. Please let me know if you find anything else!

In case you don’t already know: the track build status pages are pretty thoroughly corrupted. I confirmed for Julia, C and Kotlin, so I guess it’s all of them.

Problems are too many to list, but here are a few:

The page title for the build page is also malformed. The titles for the track docs pages and the track itself seem fine.

Edit:
The mentoring testimonial page prefixes exerciseInTrackOn to the beginning of the bit where it says which exercise and which track a given testimonial is for.

Thanks, both! Aron is off tomorrow (Happy Hungary day, Aron!) but I’ll ask him to keep working through anything that’s added to this thread. So please do add more things here.

Exciting! I have very fond memories of that holiday since the government does a half-hour fireworks display down by the Danube. My grandmother lived in the hills above the Szent János hospital in District 2 so we had an excellent line of sight from the Margit bridge down to the Széchenyi bridge.

It’s not really material, but the spacing on the testimonials page is now inconsistent, and all entries in the list are prefixed by “exerciseInTrackon”.

Edit: Mine are all for the C# track.

I marked what’s wrong with yellow color.

Making a separate reply because of a limitation that doesn’t allow me to put 2 screenshots in one post.

It looks the “Mastered” banner for concepts needs a little attention as well.

Edit 1 - I think in the past, it just said Edit Via Github at the bottom of the concept page, but now it says Edit Via Github Link.

Edit 2 - “Contributors Mentors” on the track overview page but it’s all one link going to https://exercism.org/contributing/contributors?track_slug=java (in this case) so this sticks out.

Thanks again for reporting these!

Here is the fix:

The “View Track Documentation” link has always been “View Track Documentation” so I’ll leave it that way for now.

“Link Text” seen on a solved exercise’s overview page if there’s been a finished mentoring session

Edit - I don’t think this is i18n-related but there is a missing space before Submit in “Want your video featured here?Submit it here.“ on the Dig Deeper page.

Edit - Repeated number of submissions when viewing a published solution

Edit - “forHamming” on the live feed for a track
