The plugin asks commenters to write their names in the language that your blog uses.

== Description ==

The plugin asks commenters to write their names in the language that your blog uses. Using names written in your blog's native language will enhance the quality of users' conversation. Customizing predefined language standards can create your own slang. Less spam is a welcome side effect.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How can I translate the plugin in my native language? =

Download the [developement version](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/readable-names.zip). In there you will find the file `readable-names.pot`. Translate it with “[Poedit](http://www.poedit.net/)”. Contact me through the [support forum](http://wordpress.org/tags/readable-names). 

= If my commenter's are coming from all over the world, they have the right to write their names as they want. Even if this is a foreign language. What is the value of the plugin? =

You cannot read foreign alphabet characters. “Доктор Бро” is just not readable for you, if you don't know Russian. If strangers want to leave comments on *your blog*, they have to speak *your language*. The commenter is always a guest.

== Screenshots ==

1. The admin option page is clear.

2. The comment form gives a decent hint.

3. The error messages are user friendly.
