ProZ.com frequently asked questionsForums Main
1 - Wat is die ProZ.com-forums? Die ProZ.com-forums is 'n ope besprekingsarea waar ProZ.com-gebruikers onderwerpe van gesamentlike belang in 'n relatief ongestruktureerde formaat kan bespreek. 2 - Watter soort dinge kan geplaas word? Die ProZ.com-forums is bedoel vir bespreking van dinge wat met vertaling, ProZ.com sélf of die ProZ.com-gemeenskap verband hou. Die forums is nie daar vir 'n ander doel nie. 'n Meer omvattende omskrywing van die doel van die forums is hier beskikbaar. 3 - Wat is die forums se reëls? Daar is skakels uit die forums na die Forumreëls. Gebruikers moet tot daardie reëls instem voor hulle boodskappe kan plaas. 4 - What should I do if I consider that site rules are being violated in a forum? In this case you should refer the issue to the forum moderator or a member of site staff. At the bottom of each forum thread page you will see a little box with the name of the corresponding moderator(s) and a "Call to this topic" link: 5 - Wie kan die forums gebruik? Enige geregistreerde gebruiker van ProZ.com kan boodskappe in die forums plaas. 6 - Word forumboodskappe gekeur? Forumboodskappe van lede en gebruikers wie se identiteit geverifieer is, verskyn dadelik.* Boodskappe van alle ander mense word nagegaan voor dit gewys word. Die meeste boodskappe word binne 12 uur goedgekeur. 7 - How do I post in the forums? To start a new thread in a forum you should visit its page and then click on the "Post new topic" link, on the upper left part of the screen. This will show you a posting window where you should write a good title in the "Topic subject:" field (instructions provided in the same page) and the body of your post in the "Topic body: " field. 8 - How do I select the forums I would like to see listed on the homepage? Go to your forum dashboard and click on the "Homepage forums" tab. There you can select the forums you would like to appear on the homepage. 9 - I have a question I would like to post to the forums. What is the best way to make sure I get an answer? Here are some tips to keep in mind when posting a question to the forums: 10 - How can I include smilies in my forum post? Smilies are keyboard characters used to convey an emotion, such as a smile :) or a frown :( To see a list of smilies and how to make them, just visit the article Smilies & Other Basic Text Formats in Proz.com Forums: Quick Reference Guide. 11 - What is BBCode and how can I use it in the forums? BBCode is a variation on the HTML tags you may already be familiar with. Basically, it allows you to add functionality or style to your message that would normally require HTML. You can use BBCode even if HTML is not enabled for the forum you are using. You may want to use BBCode as opposed to HTML, because there is less coding required and it is safer to use (incorrect coding syntax will not lead to as many problems). Note that you must include a closing [/list] when you end each list. Making ordered lists is just as easy. Just add either [LIST=A] or [LIST=1]. Typing [List=A] will produce a list from A to Z. Using [List=1] will produce numbered lists. Here's an example: [list=A] [*] This is the first bulleted item. [*] This is the second bulleted item. [/list] This produces: 1. This is the first bulleted item. 2. This is the second bulleted item. Adding Images To add a image within your message, just encase the URL of the graphic image as shown in the following example (BBCode is in red). [img]http://www.totalgeek.org/images/tline.gif[/img] In the example above, the BBCode automatically makes the graphic visible in your message. Note: the "http://" part of the URL is required for the [img] code. Quoting Other Messages To reference something specific that someone has posted, just cut and paste the applicable verbiage and enclose it as shown below (BBCode is in red). [QUOTE]Ask not what your country can do for you.... ask what you can do for your country.[/QUOTE] In the example above, the BBCode automatically blockquotes the text you reference. Note: 12 - Hoe kan ek kennisgewing ontvang van nuwe forumboodskappe? Alle geregistreerde lede kan kennisgewing ontvang van nuwe forumboodskappe. Hou forums dop Om 'n hele forum vir nuwe boodskappe dop te hou, gebruik die opsies in die linkerkolom op die hoofforumbladsy (die 'Forums'-skakel in die kieslys, kliek hier). Daar het jy drie opsies vir elke forum: Kies 'Nuwe gesprekke' om kennisgewing van nuwe onderwerpe te ontvang. 'Alle nuwe boodskappe' is vir kennisgewing van nuwe onderwerpe en vir alle nuwe boodskappe. Die 'Af'-opsie deaktiveer alle kennisgewings van nuwe boodskappe daardie forum. Wanneer jy klaar gekies het, druk die Dophou-knoppie onderaan die bladsy om jou keuse te stoor. Hou enkele gesprekke dop Om 'n enkele gesprek dop te hou (wanneer jy byvoorbeeld nie die hele forum waarin dit verskyn, dophou nie), druk die 'Hou gesprek dop"-skakel bo-aan die bladsy wanneer jy die gesprek bekyk. Wanneer dophou geaktiveer is, lees die skakel 'Hou op om gesprek dop te hou', wat jy kan gebruik om dophou te deaktiveer. Kan ek die boodskappe se volledige teks in die kennisgewing kry? Nee. Vanweë bandwydtegebruik kan ons net 'n uittreksel uit die boodskap in die kennisgewing insluit. 13 - Word private forums deur soekenjins geïndekseer? Ons stel voor dat enige iemand wat die internet gebruik, altyd veronderstel dat enige iets wat hulle aanlyn pos, vir ewig deur alle ander mense gelees kan word. Wat private forums betref het ons egter ons bes gedoen om te verseker dat soekenjins nie die inhoud daarvan indekseer nie, tensy die soekenjin as een van die groeplede aangemeld is of op 'n manier die stawingsprosedure omseil het. Dit is dus betreklik onwaarskynlik dat inhoud wat in private forums geplaas word, deur soekenjins geïndekseer word. 14 - Hoe word daar bepaal of 'n forumgesprek op die tuisblad gewys word? Die tuisblad is 'n belangrike ruimte vir die ProZ.com-gemeenskap omdat lede heelwat tyd en aandag daar bestee. Ten einde die beste moontlike werksomgewing te skep, oefen ProZ.com-personeel redaksionele beheer uit oor wat daarop verskyn. (Dit is algemeen in uitgewery.) 15 - What is the RSS feed for forums? RSS is an acronym for Really Simple Syndication, a family of Web formats used to publish frequently updated content such as news headlines or blog entries in a standardized format and that allows users to subscribe to it. 16 - Hoekom het my onderwerpreël verander? ProZ.com-moderators en -personeel kan onderwerpreëls wysig as dit nie beskrywend genoeg van die inhoud van die boodskap is nie. (Dit staan geskryf op die pos- en antwoordvorms, en in die forumreëls.) 17 - Ek kan nie my boodskap vind nie. As jy nie 'n boodskap kan vind wat jy geskryf het nie, kan dit wees dat jou boodskap nog goedgekeur moet word voor dit verskyn omdat jy nie 'n werflid is nie en/of jou identiteit nog nie geverifieer is nie.* 18 - Kan ek 'n boodskap oor 'n slegte agentskap of vertaler skryf? Nee, glad nie. Die Bloubord is die geskikte plek waar jy jou mening oor 'n betrokke kliënt kan lug. 19 - Hoekom kan ek nie die forums gebruik om ander mense oor 'n slegte agentskap te waarsku nie? Kritiek in die openbaar kan nogal hewige gevolge hê, soos tientalle of selfs honderde e-posse, foonoproepe en selfs regsdreigemente. 20 - Kan finansiële onderwerpe bespreek word? Ja, maar net in die 'geldsake'-afdeling van die forums. 21 - Hoekom word politieke en kontroversiële onderwerpe verbied? Die werfstigter wens dat ongeag wat in die "regte lewe" gebeur, ons hier by ProZ.com 'n virtuele area kan skep waar mense van verskillende kulture en teenstrydige standpunte sáám in vrede met taal kan werk. 22 - Kan natuurrampe of rampe wat geen politieke verbandskap het nie in die forums bespreek word? Ja. Hoewel dit nie 'n taalverwante onderwerp is nie, word boodskappe oor natuurrampe (di aardbewings, vloede, orkane, tifone, hittegolwe, kouevloede, tsjoenami's, vulkane, sneeustortings, brande, modderstortings en ander natuurlike gebeurtenisse wat nie deur stryd veroorsaak is nie) wel aanvaar omdat die forum 'n gemeenskap is. 23 - If a forum thread has been locked, does that mean the topic cannot be discussed ever again? When a forum thread has been locked, forum rule 6 helps to protect this action and allow a discussion to "cool down". Immediately posting with the intention of continuing the discussion in a locked thread is not allowed, but this does not mean that the topic itself cannot be discussed at a later point, provided it is in line with site rules. 24 - What about freedom of speech? There should not be censorship in the forums The forums are limited in scope and subject to rules. It is important to know that the site rules and scope have been in place for some time now, and they are there and enforced precisely in the interest of maintaining a positive, results-oriented workplace. The only way for this to happen is for those rules and the scope to be enforced consistently, and that is what moderators and site staff do. 25 - Can I request a private forum for discussion/work? Paying members may request a private forum be created, and invite colleagues to participate. To do this, just submit a support request, stating the name you wish to give the forum and including the profile numbers of any initial participants you wish to include in the forum. 26 - I have a survey I would like to publish. Can I post it in the forums? If you have a survey you would like to publish, and it is within ProZ.com site scope, please contact staff via the support system with the specifics for help. Note that not all surveys can be published. | Request help Site documentation The member services and support team ![]() Jared ![]() Lucia ![]() Alejandro ![]() Helen ![]() Romina ![]() Yana |
