Hi Platonides,

Yes, it should work by doing a replacement on a few string variables.

There are two questions that are a bit tricky:
- The one listing all the previous contests (this one would need to be updated 
after each contest that has taken place - not a huge problem)
- The one asking when the pictures were mainly taken (here, the items need to 
be adapted from year to year as well as specifically with regard to the date of 
the contest)

Another issue is that we didn't have full translations available for all needed 
languages. So we would need to run another translation sprint for the missing 
languages.

If you are taking care of the technical stuff, I can review the questionnaire 
once you have set it up with the changing variables, and I can try to establish 
a list of the languages that still would need translation.

Cheers,
Beat

Hello Beat,
I just found this proposal while reviewing old unread mail, and seems very 
interesting.

This would basically simply need the variables {{contest}}, {{year}}, 
{{previous year}}, {{previous month}}, {{coordinating team}} and {{team 
signature}}, plus the country list and run the same survey on any contest.
The cool thing is that we could perform a blind replacement on the translations 
we currently have and it _should_ work.

This kind of usage assumes that on all languages the contest name will appear 
on the same part of the phrase (which is probably the case) and won't be 
differences like WLM and WLE having different genders.

Regards



PS: For the countries you added, we would need the languages: 
Portuguese, Khmer, Kurdish?, Greek, Latvian, Macedonian, Malagasy?
