Why this project?
After completing JabRef, the reference management software, I started going though the white-listed projects and Mura seemed to be the less demanding considering terminology. There are some strings that puzzle me with specific terms, but thanks to
Also, Mura CMS seemed like a very helpful tool that I would like to see being used by more people. Therefore, by submitting a good Greek translation, I aspire to see more Greeks using it in the future.
Contribution Specifications
Translation Overview:
The original text contains 7463 words. It's pretty much as big as JabRef and I believe I will finish it in 6 - 7 parts as well.
When I first started working on it, about 1% of the second file was already translated and approved by a proofreader outside the DaVinci-Utopian Translations project. This meant I had to check all these translations first, before working on the second file, in order to make sure they were correct and would not mess with the wording coherence within the text as a whole.
Languages:
The original text is all written in English and it is my task to translate it in Greek (my mother tongue).
In this session...
Activity Overview:
In this session I worked on the second and bigger file of the project, Core Admin that contains the basic features of the software. This file had some translated and approved stings that I had to check before continuing with my translation. Some of them were correct, but I still had to fix a few of those as they were either wrong or didn't follow the wording and writing style I am using. Changing them was inevitable to maintain coherence throughout the project as a whole.
In this part I worked on buttons:
"Delete" = "Διαγραφή"
fields:
"From" = "Από"
and messages:
"The 'From' field must be in a valid date format." = "Το πεδίο 'Από' πρέπει να είναι έγκυρη μορφή ημερομηνίας."
In general some strings were a piece of cake, while others just needed some more concentration to get them right.
Word Count:
According to Crowdin's word count tool, in this session I translated 1280 words. After subtracting a rough 12% for: a) untranslated words (like email) and b) duplicate strings; I can say that I have translated about 1126 words.
*Note: The previous part was about 1035 words long

TL;DR
This was the second part of the Mura CMS project. Mura is Content Management System that helps content creators and website managers manage their sites easier. In this session I delivered a translation of about 1126 words. This part was not very difficult, luckily, but the following ones have a few strings that are really puzzling.
