:I understand that the zh page supports automatic variant conversion. I created the zh-hans page because I noticed the zh page contains mixed usage of Simplified and Traditional Chinese characters. Automatic conversion mainly handles character set conversion but struggles with converting phrasing habits. A typical example is that "釋出" (release) would be converted to "释出" rather than the more common term "发行" in this context. The same issue occurs when converting Simplified Chinese to Traditional Chinese. My original intention was to provide documentation that aligns with the reading habits of Simplified Chinese users. If maintaining the zh page is considered more convenient for management, I can contribute directly to the zh page.

::Hi Loxodoromy. It shouldn't be a problem if Nixpkgs/zh contains mixed usage of SC and TC characters, as Wikipedia does the same, and I think that's the best approach. For terms that differ between SC and TC, you can actually specify how to localize them, see this example: https://wiki.nixos.org/w/index.php?title=Nixpkgs/zh&diff=prev&oldid=26682. That being said, 釋出 should probably be replaced by 發行 in accordance with https://terms.naer.edu.tw/. [[User:Weijia|Weijia]] ([[User talk:Weijia|talk]]) 17:11, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
