Greetings, Maybe as a starter, we can allow user contributions for package descriptions. I do not think it would be easy to change anything else without modifying how other tooling works. with description, only package searching tools (for eg. pacman) would have to accomodate both utf8 and non utf8 characters (I am not sure if it already this, but my guess is that it currently would not). Like we can currently submit request, there would be just one request added for translations.
(Unrelated, but it is my first time trying to reply in mailing list, so please forgive me if I have messed this up somehow).
