Translation of constellation maps labels to French
If you've translated something, please change the
style="color: red"
to
style="color: green"
in the <td> element.
There are some three-letter abbreviations. If you think it's appropriate, please translate them, too, but keep their shortness. Keep the LaTeX commands. These are all the strange things (mostly word beginning with backslashs, and different braces) around the actual labels.
About the copyright question (because perpetually it seems to be a problem): The English constellation maps have my (Torsten Bronger) copyright which means that I am the original author. But they are published under the terms of the GFDL nevertheless, and that is all that counts. Thus they can be used freely according to this licence.
The French maps – if they come – will have no copyright or the copyright of the uploader (who I won't be due to lack of time). I will deliver a only zip file with the bitmaps. -- Torsten Bronger 11:28, 16 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Should it be "LMC" or "GNM"? I've found only quite a few pages with GNM, but anyway. – Torsten Bronger 07:33, 17 Nov 2003 (UTC)
If there is not much space, I have to abbreviate the constellation name with three letters. But how should we abbreviate e.g. "Libra"–"Balance"? With "Lib" oe with "Bal"? – Torsten Bronger 07:11, 18 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Should the maps on fr: have a different visual appearance? -- Torsten Bronger 11:28, 16 Nov 2003 (UTC)
- personnaly, I prefer the default dark blue background. -- Looxix
