Thought it was easier to vote. A clear advance of "yes" votes does not necessarily mean the intl. Community Center will be installed. This is merely for gathering feedback of ezboard users interests - for now

Es gibt ein Community Center für englischsprachige Benutzer, aber nicht für die nicht englischsprachigen Benutzer.
Was denkt ihr darüber?
Die Umfrage wurde von infecti0n eingeleitet.
Ich dachte es wäre einfacher abzustimmen. Ein klarer Vorsprung an "ja" stimmen bedeutet nicht, dass es ein intl. Community Center geben wird. Dies hier dient der Reaktionssammlung der ezboard Benutzer - zumindest momentan

En el español:
Theres UN Centro de la Comunidad Para Usuarios ingleses, Pero Para Usuarios no No ingleses.
¿Qué Es Otros Pensamientos de Gente acerca de Esto?
Sondee iniciado por infecti0n.
Pensólo era más fácil de votar. Un avance claro de "sí" votos no significan necesariamente el intl. El Centro de la comunidad se instalará. Esto es meramente para reunir la realimentación de intereses de usuarios de ezboard - para ahora
Posted: 19/7/03 7:41 Re: International Help Forums Community Center?En français: il y a un Centre d'Information pour les utilisateurs anglais mais pas pour ceux qui ne parlent pas cette langue. Que pensez-vous de cela ? (en sachant que ce forum expose les idées sur les éventuelles options des nouvelles mises à jour d'ezboard)
Il était plus facile de lancer un sondage pour recueillir les avis des utilisateurs. Une nette majorité de "oui" ne voudra pas dire qu'un Centre d'Information International sera créé. Le but est surtout de réunir les avis des utilisateurs ezboard - pour le moment.

Well there are some like me who are multilingual and like to be able to browse through the posts of specific languages, for me it is French, English, Spannish, swedish, for others it may be German instead of Swedish. The odds are that if we have an international community already here, for the time being it is already quite multiligual.
What could be nice is to be able to filter out posts or topics that are not in a language one comprehends. That way you reduce the risk of diluting the help and splitting it out, creating redundancies.
I think the best way would be to change the user profile to add a set of fields: Native language, spoken langages (I think up to 4 by person should be enough). Each post should receive a language flag defaulted to the poster native language.
In the case the poster is multilingual (spoken languages different from nill), the posting page could submit a question just after the addreply button has been hit to query what the language of the post is to overides the default.
Then whenever somebody looks into the help community, the filters will kick in automatically and only display what the viewr can read.
The issue will be to update the database of existing posts. I suppose one can search on keywords that are specific to each language to set the flag.
In fact my MS Word spell checker recognises easily what dictionary to lookup into when I type a bi-lingual document without me telling the software what paragraphs are in what language.
Then you never know since it may improve performances, the EZboard management will be smart and use the poster flag to display the core pages depending on its native language and automatically filter out posts he cannot understand from whatever forum and whatever board.
Maybe making the feature EZsupporter only will also hep funding this development.
What would be really helpful however is to put a translate buton in the Help forum, so the helpful ones can help the others faster.
But first things first, get a bigger community of foreigners, by supplying core system pages display in a foreign language.
