Explanation for translators

Page history last edited by Kate Heffernan 3 mos ago

Thanks again for helping us spread the widget over the globe!

Here are few examples to show you how the text is used, so you'll be abel to better translate it and make your translation as appropriate as possible :)

 

 

Each line of text has a number next to it in red. It matches the line number of the table.

If you are not sure what certain line means, feel free to email me [kate[at]outbrain[dot]com] and I'll explain it to you

 

 

 

 Default mode

 

 

 

 

This is our “default mode”. Shows the average score and how many people rated it.

 

1. Rated X.xx by Y people

2. Rated X.xx by 1 person

 

 

Mouse over stars

The following are descriptions you get while you mouse over the stars:

 

3. Bad

4. Boring

5. Ok

6. Good

7. Excellent

 

 

Personalization mode

 

The widget works with a personalization algorithm, which tries to compute a unique Personalized Relevancy Score for each reader, for every item that he or she views. If it succeeds, a reader gets a message indicating how much this post should interest him or her specifically. The algorithm is mostly based on a reader's rating history. So... the more you rate posts, the more things are personalized for you.

When we say "People like you" – we mean people who have similar reading taste as you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The text changes according to the average score (rated/disliked/Recommended).

The “like you” should be in italic fonts.

“RECOMMENDED should be capitalized.

Average rating – is the “default mode” average – refers to the average of all readers who rated this post (not just the ones who have similar reading taste as you).

 

8. rated (X.xx) by Y people like you

9. Disliked (X.xx) by Y people like you 

10. RECOMMENDED (X.xx) by Y people like you

11 . average rating X.xx by Y people

25. How – is a link to explanation on how Outbrain calculates the personalization.
