Description

@Roshanjossey

🎯 Goal
Translate English alt text to Nigerian Pidgin in the README translation to improve accessibility for Nigerian Pidgin speakers.

🐞 Problem
The Nigerian Pidgin translation has images with English alt text, which makes the content less accessible to Nigerian Pidgin speakers using screen readers and other assistive technologies.

πŸ’‘ What needs to be done
Translate all English alt text to Nigerian Pidgin in the tutorial images. You can find the file at:
https://github.com/firstcontributions/first-contributions/blob/main/docs/translations/README.ng-pidgin.md

Common English alt text that needs translation:

  • "fork this repository" β†’ translate to Nigerian Pidgin
  • "clone this repository" β†’ translate to Nigerian Pidgin
  • "copy URL to clipboard" β†’ translate to Nigerian Pidgin
  • "git status" β†’ translate to Nigerian Pidgin
  • "create a pull request" β†’ translate to Nigerian Pidgin
  • "submit pull request" β†’ translate to Nigerian Pidgin

Example of what needs to be fixed:

<!-- Current (English alt text) -->
<img align="right" width="300" src="https://firstcontributions.github.io/assets/Readme/fork.png" alt="fork this repository" />

<!-- Should be (translated to Nigerian Pidgin) -->
<img align="right" width="300" src="https://firstcontributions.github.io/assets/Readme/fork.png" alt="[Nigerian Pidgin translation of 'fork this repository']" />
