I had started the translation many months ago.
Having free text at this location led to 2 problems:
- the incorrect justification of depreciation (I don't agree with the
current criterion of "poorly documented tag" since in this case the
documentation should be completed. Once this is in order, we arrive
either at a well documented tag without any problem of use or at a tag
having several meanings or other problems making its use impossible
which could lead to a depreciation)
- translating 50x the same string, it's a waste of human time. there is
only a limited number of reasons to deprecate a tag with 0, 1 or several
replacement tags, no need to invent 50x different strings to say the
same thing.
I finally gave up for this double reason. and to see these 2 points
improving seems to me very positive for the quality of the data and the
documentation
Regards,
Marc
