Some text on the p5.js Editor “About” page is not translated #3485
Description
p5.js version
2.0.1
What is your operating system?
Windows
Web browser and version
Chrome Version 136.0.7103.93
Actual Behavior
When viewing the “About” page of the p5.js Editor in a non-English language (e.g., Spanish), some sections still display text in English. This includes the introductory paragraph and various descriptions under sections like “Get Involved” and “Resources,” which remain untranslated even though the rest of the UI is localized.
Expected Behavior
All static text on the “About” page should be fully translated and displayed in the selected language, ensuring a consistent and complete user experience across all supported locales.
Steps to reproduce
Steps:
- Open a sketch in the web editor.
- Select the language other than english.
- Go to Help section and click on About.

Hi! I'd like to work on this issue. Please assign it to me if it's still available. 🙌

Hi @Subham-KRLX! This issue is still open since there's a few languages left to translate.
As noted above, please make sure to check out the translation guide first to get a sense on how to approach translations! Another thing to keep in mind as you work on this issue is that we are currently not accepting machine translations, and would prefer translations from contributors who speak the language natively or fluently.

Hi @raclim and team! 👋
I’d like to work on translating the missing text on the About page into **[Hindi], following the guidelines. Please assign me if it’s still open—thanks!

@Subham-KRLX You can work on it even if it's not assigned to you, as someone working on a different language can contribute as well.

Hi @raclim I would love to add translations for a bunch of Indian languages. Can the issue be assigned to me. Thank you.
yugalkaushik commentedon Jul 3, 2025
@meher745 You can directly work on this issue without this issue assigned to you. Please go through the translation guide before contribution.

Hello team,
I will also review this issue for the Spanish translations, should that not already be being handled by someone. I wanted to provide a heads-up.

@Urvi2727 Hi thank you for your contributions here but there are already multiple PRs for the same issue so before creating a PR we request you to view other contributors' PRs so we don't put in extra efforts.

Hi @raclim! 👋
I see that this issue is still open for language-specific contributions. I am a native Hindi speaker and noticed that while Hindi has most of the About page translated, there are a couple of missing keys (
About.Contact,About.EmailAddress) as well as copy-paste descriptions underLinkDescriptions.ForumandLinkDescriptions.Discordintranslations/locales/hi/translations.json.I would love to clean up and complete the Hindi translations for this page following the Translation Guidelines. May I go ahead and work on this? Thank you!
