Description

Problem statement

Follow-up to #447. We want to make sure all of the labels on the page are translated, not just the site content.

Proposed solution
  • Review HTML templates and Python code to make sure all labels are translateable using Django’s gettext or translate tags
  • Produce new .po files with all translate-able strings
  • Use a tool like yesglot for a first draft of translated labels
  • Update contributor documentation so we do this well in the future.
