Someone with the name Reyjamir joined the Dutch Translation team, but apparently he is not Dutch because he screwed up all the translations for the Bank Reconciliation Statement I discovered. And maybe he did on some more text. I have not the slightest idea in what language he translated the text of this report. Can you undo his translations and please contact him. I try to keep the Dutch version to the status of 100% translated the correct way. Users are not happy with some who is screwing up the good work the Dutch group did. Thanks for your cooperation.

He contributed 4 segments but they were new strings previously untranslated.

See: [https://webtranslateit.com/en/projects/2694-Manager/locales/en-US..nl/strings?user=20823](https://webtranslateit.com/en/projects/2694-Manager/locales/en-US..nl/strings?user=20823)

However, I will be looking into adding proofreading layer so new contributors will have to be checked by proofreaders before their translations make it into the program.

@ Lubos & Jon  
So to see, this guy is definitely member of the wrong group, but it also shows that it is a weak point in the translation tool, that anybody can change things without any kind of check. Please implement “proofreading” in due course. For the Dutch version, I am a candidate for proofreading. In the time between, I changed his “contribution”.

@Lubos

In the Dutch Bank Reconciliation Statement, there is one line of text, I can nowhere find how to translate.  
It is the text “Bank reconciliation discrepancy”. In Dutch it should be translated in: “Bank afstemmingsverschil”.  
Can you help me out or tell me how to translate this text string.

@Hennie, sorry - it’s now translatable on WebTranslateIt.

Again a translation issue  
The English word “to” has three different translations in Dutch:  
I send a letter to, to is translated in “aan”  
I drove my car to Amsterdam, to is translated in “naar”  
In reports, a heading like “from - to”, to is translated in “tot”.  
In the P&L-report I find the wrong translation “Aan” instead of “Tot”.  
Is it a thing you can change in the translation table?  
I think the same problem counts for the German-language where it is “an”, “nach” and “bis”.  
Is there in manager a difference between “to” and “up to and including” ?  
I think it is an essential difference because in my opinion “to” doesn’t include the specified day and “up to and including” does. In Dutch we make that difference: “tot” doesn’t include the specified day and “tot en met” does.  
Can you give some explanation how you treated this.

Good point. I’ve added two new strings `FromDate` and `ToDate` to WebTranslateIt portal which should address this ambiguity.

Hi There:

I just request in Web Translateit an invitation to help translate in Spanish. Right now there are a lot of missing strings and I’m willing to help.

Please acept my request. Thanks!
