Description Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-06-21 14:41:10 UTC
Russian translations are way too old and while our community looks for solution to cope with translation google presents old and unmaintained translations to our users. Is it possible to add:

Disallow: /doc/ru

into robots.txt? Thanks in advance.
Comment 1 nm (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-06-21 19:15:44 UTC
I dunno if this is even what's wanted. Still, it's not something the GDP can fix, so it should be assigned to infra, as they have the robots.txt access.

Also, I think it's better to either unlink the Russian index, or else keep the translations up as proof that we need actual contributors to the documentation, to bring it up to date.

Covering up the lack of attention doesn't solve anything, it merely . . . covers it up.
Comment 2 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-06-21 20:04:12 UTC
True. Let's unlink it too.

But ... people will still find it in google and I'd like to avoid that.
Comment 3 Xavier Neys (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-06-21 20:25:03 UTC
Removed link from index.xml. Was already commented out from handbook index.
We don't have the habit of hiding things.
Outdated translations are marked as such with a link to the original.
Comment 4 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-06-23 09:30:56 UTC
Xavier, but is it possible to create obsoletetranslation attribute?

I don't think it's good idea to put obsolete attribute in translations since document itself is not obsolete and it'll be great if there will be link on English original in the text itself.

Thanks.

Has nothing to do with infra.
Comment 6 nm (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-14 22:51:06 UTC
Beats me if this can be done. Xavier's not around to whip up the XML/XSL regardless of whether or not this is a good iea, so there's nothing the rest of us can do.
Comment 7 Kanstantsin Shautsou 2010-09-14 21:37:22 UTC
Problem not solved.
People are still trying to install gentoo with 2006 year handbook! I'm tired to say every day don't use it.
This is standart google query 
http://www.google.com.by/search?q=gentoo+handbook+ru .
There is no ru-translators for ~4 years.
Comment 8 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-09-15 05:51:41 UTC
Kostya, please, provide patch to all documentation that will add deprecation notice to the top. Since we don't have such tag it's possible to do that manually. I'll commit such change.

No need . . .you need to re-sync your CVS tree and look at the documents online. I already did the handbooks earlier today. I don't plan on putting those notices on all the rest of the Russian docs; I only did the handbooks.

Thank you!

Still I think it useful to have similar marking in other documentation too. Do we have such? If not probably some manually edited textual block could be useful.
