On language names it reads: "somefuzzychars - original string" i.e. "xxxxxxxx - Basque" why that?
Is this a normal practice in Hebrew?

[Meir Kriheli]

I prefer it that way (not just for Hebrew). For example: Asumming someone lands on the site, with Hebrew as the main language. How can he/she select English, if all the languages in the select box are written in Hebrew ? Since they don't know any Hebrew, they won't be able to find the correct language (or if someone selects by accident another language and he can't spot the correct language from the translations).

[Marc Fargas]

If it's not a language practice I'd rather leave only the translated string (to be consistent with the rest of translations and other applications).

For what you say, the common practice is to either place the language selection link in the original form or both, i.e. (in catalan):

• English - Anglès
• Català - Català
• Español - Castellà

That is, in the template: English - {% trans "English" %} would do that, then English would be in English + current language, etc.

[Marc Garcia]

Actually, when creating the select box for choosing language in Django, they are used the strings in LANGUAGES directives in settings.py that can't be directly translated with gettext, so it's meaningless translating this way, that as telenieko says, can produce unexpected results in web sites.
