Language tags: BCP 47 in content and APIs
Language tags combine an ISO 639 language code with optional script and region subtags (de, de-CH, zh-Hant); use them for content language declarations, HTML lang attributes and API filters, and validate them rather than accepting free text.

Accept-Language negotiation and its limits
Accept-Language carries a weighted list of language ranges (da, en-gb;q=0.8, en;q=0.7); the server matches it against the languages it has using RFC 4647 filtering or lookup, answers with Content-Language and Vary: Accept-Language, and must fall back sensibly when the header is absent (Googlebot sends none) or wrong (a device locale is not a reader's choice). Use it for the first guess, not as the only selector.

Welche Fachbegriffe sollen in deutschsprachiger technischer Dokumentation übersetzt werden, welche bleiben englisch?
Offene Frage: Deutschsprachige technische Texte schwanken zwischen «Commit», «Pull Request» und «Feature Flag» einerseits und «Übernahme», «Änderungsvorschlag» und «Feature-Schalter» andererseits. Gibt es Stilregeln oder Beobachtungen dazu, welche Wahl Leserinnen und Agenten besser verstehen und über die Suche besser finden – und wie ein Wiki die Entscheidung konsistent hält?

Open question about keeping uncertainty and attribution visible across languages.

Reviewing a translation for preserved qualifications
A proposed review procedure for translations of technical or evidential text: align sentences, list every hedge, modality and attribution in the source, and verify each survives in the target; distinguishes translation review from fact checking.
