Reporting issues in Weblate#reporting-issues-in-weblate

Weblate [https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/issues](issue tracker) is hosted at GitHub.

Feel welcome to report any issues you have or suggest improvements for Weblate there. There are various templates prepared to comfortably guide you through the issue report.

Note

If what you have found is a security issue in Weblate, please see [../security/issues.html#security](Reporting security issues).

If you are not sure about your bug report or feature request, you can try [index.html#discussions](Weblate discussions).

Using AI to create issues#using-ai-to-create-issues

If you asked an AI tool to find problems in Weblate or its modules, you must make sure to reveal this fact in your report.

You must also double-check the findings carefully before reporting them to us to validate that the issues are indeed existing and working exactly as the AI says. AI-based tools frequently generate inaccurate or fabricated results.

It is rarely a good idea to just copy and paste an AI-generated report to the project. Those generated reports typically are too wordy and rarely to the point (in addition to the common fabricated details). If you actually discover a issue with an AI and you have verified it yourself to be true, write the report yourself and explain the issue as you have learned it. This makes sure the AI-generated inaccuracies and invented issues are filtered out early before they waste more people’s time.

As we take security reports seriously, we investigate each report with priority. This work is both time- and energy-consuming and pulls us away from doing other meaningful work. Fake and otherwise made-up security issues effectively prevent us from doing real project work and make us waste time and resources.

We ban users immediately who submit made-up fake reports to the project.
