What's New on Tatoeba? - Your weekly recap °4


UPDATES

※ The implementation of the new design continues, this time with the favorites and adoption features! Thanks to TRANG for her work.

※ Improved cleaning of contributions by removing all Unicode whitespaces. Various Unicode characters are being used in contributions, posing unnecessary issues to duplicate detection and other potential script-oriented applications. Thanks to TRANG and CK for first reporting and to AndiPersti (on GitHub) for implementing the cleaning method.

※ Improved consistency of settings and tooltips strings. Thanks to Aiji for the modifications.

※ gillux implemented some optimization and correction of the code at the back of Tatoeba. Among other things, you may see the homepage load faster than before! Thanks to him for the work.

※ gillux also improved the way furigana are generated and displayed on Japanese sentences.

※ Yorwba wrote a script to have language names displayed in the interface language even if they are not translated on Transifex yet! Thanks to him for the work.
