I'm aware of the 35% pull threshold. I was suggesting we could raise the bar to eg 80% for that language to be set as default on first launch :)

    Hi,
    I'm sure I'm not a particular case: when I'm asked to select a
    language, I usually look after the one I'm the most comfortable
    with and select it. And in this case, I guess most of pt_PT people
    seeing their language in the list will still pick that language,
    ignoring there are issues with it.

    Mathieu there's already a value check: only languages with 35% are
    pulled into code base. The issue here is that pt_PT has issues
    with the quality of the translated strings.

        Could we not have some means to attach a quality value to each
        language (eg at the very least % translated), and only force
        English on poorly translated languages? I feel forcing English
        by default would be a disservice to the part of the community
        that spends hours to translate QGIS.

            Hi Alessandro,

            Well, the option on first launch would be a much bettter
            solution. But probably more complicated. Any idea of how
            much man/hours would be needed to implement it?

            Thanks,

            Alex

                Hi Alexandre,

                it seems reasonable to me but I'd suggest adding a
                first-time notice and an option for the user to
                actually set the system locale, maybe only for the
                first QGIS launch.

                    Hi,

                    I have raised this before, but I wanted to ask for
                    it again. Currently, QGIS default is not to
                    Override System Locale and use the system's locale
                    for User interface.

                    If the system locale language happens to have good
                    and reliable translations, this works well, but
                    when the language is incomplete or poorly
                    translated, this IMHO poses a problem.

                    The European Portuguese translation is quite poor,
                    with many errors and bad translations. In the end
                    it is sometimes hard to work with the GUI in
                    PT_pt. To me the bad thing is it looks bad on the
                    project reputation and people (users) read it as a
                    symptom of bad quality software, which is not the
                    case.

                    So, I wanted to suggest if we could have American
                    english as the default for the GUI? Would this  be
                    reasonable?

                    Thanks,

                    Alexandre Neto
