If you find more mods or addons with political messages, flag them for moderator attention via the red exclamation mark inside a triangle. It is pretty small, and usually near the bottom of the mod's description page, but it is there.

why do you want to promote censorship? 

 I am not a fan of censorship, but political messages do not belong in a Minecraft (or other game) mod. Pushing a narrative on people is offensive. Being told what to think and how to think is extremely offensive. That said, I left this with the admins.

In reply to itsnikolayy:

 I filed a report for the admins to check out, and linked this thread for details.

I'm going with "no".

I don't know about ATSW but if you miss the functionality it provides, look at TradeSkillMaster, which is actively maintained.

Hi, there is a translation bug that stops gathermate2 from recording the locations of Mountain Silversage for the german clients. Please change the translation from "Bergsilbersalbei" (wrong) to "Bergsilberweisling" (correct).

Thank you

(See also https://classic.wowhead.com/item=13465/mountain-silversage and the de version: https://de.classic.wowhead.com/object=176586/bergsilberweisling#herbalism)

 You can correct the translations yourself: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/gathermate2/localization/languages/94/phrases#183387 Just requires the author to push a new release build after you are done.

In that case, click the link above, look to the right for the flag icon and notify for admin or moderator changes :)

As a side note, all addon code defaults to All Rights Reserved unless otherwise specified, because all intellectual property is copyright by default. Specifying All Rights Reserved is for other people who don't understand the law.

EmoteLib is listed as All Rights Reserved, which takes decades to expire. Even though the original author is unknown ("_ForgeUserNNNNN" is a placeholder for someone who canceled their Curseforge account) the rights still exist with whomever that was. I doubt an admin would hand over the project given the legalities.

However, you can fork the project and make enough changes to make it your own, in which case you are safe from any legal fallout.

After chatting with Torhal, everything seems to be fixed now. For those curious, library  addons must have translations exported manually and Curseforge packager keyword substitutions do not work in libraries.

Progress: LibAboutPanel-2.0 by itself seems to be working correctly finally. When zipped with RepByZone, that version of LAP2 reverts back to all the developer code tags. Also, LibStub and Ace3 are not bundled with the library version shipped with the addon. Also also, the addon-shipped version of LAP2 is still using the wrong localizations!

Click on Dashboard, Projects, and find the old version. It may be listed more than once, so find the one that is working.

Geezus, it gets worse: RepByZone's toc file is wrong too! And ALL of the files in the localization folder don't have replacements, either. How about this: instead of "pending approval" all the time, you just auto-approve every single one of my commits AS-IS with the CORRECT packager keyword substitutions!!!

Okay, looking further: no repository keywords are working for LibAboutPanel-2.0 when zipped. I looked at the .toc fields, and @project-version@ and @project-revision@ still exist rather than being replaced by the appropriate values.

The Notes field is correct in English, but none of the other translations are being fed correctly, like Notes-ruRU or Notes-frFR. In fact, all those others don't even exist in the zip file, only the base Notes field.

This has caused both LibAboutPanel-2.0 and RepByZone to fail to load, "cannot find library LibAboutPanel-2.0" error.

I am going to manually export and place translations for now, but this is a serious bug in the packager.

Why is LibAboutPanel-2.0's localization being replaced with RepByZone's translations? According to LAP's localization page, the translations are correct, yet when I open the Lua file, all the wrong phrases are there?

Below is RepByZone's translations, copied directly from LibAboutPanel-2.0's Core.lua file. Exactly ZERO of that is correct. Suddenly I am terrified that NONE of my addons are correct, whether written by me or by other people. Do I even dare look at any addon that uses Ace3?!?

For those of you can't tell days on a calender, I posted my comment to this thread before GatherMate2 was updated for classic. It has now been updated, but GatherMate2_Data has not, at least not at the time of my posting this. Some users have waded through years of file updates to find a pre-Cataclysm version.

In the future, instead of calling a moderator or someone else out and throwing shade, please pay even the slightest amount of attention. Thanks.
