Is there a way to reject a translation commit on github and revert it on weblate?

[tttp]

Hi,

We allow open translations (not suggestions) on weblate and so far has worked very well

However, we have from time to time "translations" that are weird changes, for instance

https://github.com/fixthestatusquo/proca/pull/1881/files

I would like to reject that change and revert to the previous version of these strings on weblate. Can I do it from github directly? (eg like you can have @dependabot commands)?

Alternatively, is there an easy way to do it from weblate?

You can revert edits in Weblate. Or you can cherry-pick desired commits manually and reset Weblate on top of these changes.

The commands might be a useful addition once we have #1688

We created a process for this, where we use two branches. One for incoming changes from the development team and a second to push back translations from the translation team.

The simple rule is, the developers are only allowed to make changes in the main language. The translation team on the other hand is only allowed to make changes in translated languages.

This way we can avoid most of the conflicts.

The simple thinking is that translating is a complete different role and responsibility than developing software.

A team can of course decide to have both roles if enough staff with translation expertise is present in the team. The splitting of skills and responsibilities should nevertheless stay that way.
