Summary0009614: The FAQ in Arabic looks howfull
DescriptionThe FAQ in Arabic is indentated to the left. Should be right.
The texts are not good. If you have a TALER in the middle of a sentence, the first part of the sentence is wroten on the left, the it writes TALER, then the rest of the sentence is displayed on the right. This should be the other way round.
Even if the words inside the arabic string are in the right order, since the semi-strings are not. The text can not be read.
Since I would not be able to change this easily, I would turn off the arabic FAQ now. Sometime it makes more harm to have a bad content in a local language than to have a content that is good in English and can be easily translated by the browser.

To see the end of the string, just look at the Question marks '?'.

Arabic is at 63 % of all strings translated. In 2021/22, We had a bunch of volunteers working on the Arabic translation and some of them were even spamming Weblate's repositories. At a certain stage, I had to interrupt the internationalisation in Arabic, however this does not solve the issue that some text containing English words or brand names like Taler are messing up the text direction. I will have to find a workaround and competent Arabic mother-tongue speakers who know Taler and/or FLOSS. Meanwhile, I will therefore completely deprecate Arabic as option for the language switcher next time I push to stable.

Done. Arabic is off and deprecated in the language switcher. I will need to find a mother-tongue speaker of Arabic who is fund of FLOSS and is committed to GNU Taler.
