 About Virtual Environments
 ==========================
-Creating a virtual environment is really easy and usually prevents many common installation

+Creating a virtual environment is simple and helps prevent installation problems.

 **What Are Virtual Environments For?**

-Virtual environments allow you to isolate Red's library dependencies, cog dependencies and python
-binaries from the rest of your system. There is no performance overhead to using virtual environment
-and it saves you from a lot of troubles during setup. It also makes sure Red and its dependencies
-are installed to a predictable location which makes uninstalling Red as simple as removing a single folder,
-without worrying about losing your data or other things on your system becoming broken.

 If you are running multiple instances of Red on the same machine, you have the option of either
 using the same virtual environment for all of them, or creating separate ones.

-.. note::
+Using a *single* virtual environment for all of your instances means you:

-    This only applies for multiple instances of V3. If you are running a V2 instance as well,
-    you **must** use separate virtual environments.
+- Only need to update Red once for all instances.
+- Must shut down all instances prior to updating.

+- Want all instances to share the same version/dependencies.

-The advantages of using a *single* virtual environment for all of your V3 instances are:
+Using *multiple* virtual environments for each individual or select groups of instances means you:

- When updating Red, you will only need to update it once for all instances (however you will still need to restart all instances for the changes to take effect)
- It will save space on your hard drive
-
-On the other hand, you may wish to update each of your instances individually.
+- Need to update Red within each virtual environment separately.
+- Can update Red without needing to update all instances.
+- Only need to shut down the instance(s) being updated.
+- Want different Red/dependency versions on different instances.

 .. important::

-    Windows users with multiple instances should create *separate* virtual environments, as
-    updating multiple running instances at once is likely to cause errors.
+    Regardless of which option you choose, do not update while any instances within that virtual 
+    environment are running. This is especially true for Windows, as files are locked by the system while in use.

 Tutorial
 --------

-After making your cog, generate a :code:`messages.pot` file
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Preparing your cog for translations
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

-We recommend using redgettext - a modified version of pygettext for Red.
-You can install redgettext by running :code:`pip install redgettext` in a command prompt.
+The first step to adding translations to your cog is to add Red's internationalization framework
+to the strings in your cog. The first step is to instantiate an instance of
+`redbot.core.i18n.Translator` just after the imports in each file. This object is traditionally 
+stored in the variable ``_`` to reduce its character count and visual impact on the code. Next,
+add the `redbot.core.i18n.cog_i18n` decorator to your cog class. This will allow docstrings of
+the class and its commands to be translated. Every user-facing string that is not a docstring
+should then be wrapped by the Translator object. If variables are included in a string,
+``.format()`` must be used, and should be called after the translation function call. This is
+because ``.format()`` within the translation function call and f-strings cause the interpolation
+to happen **before** the translation is applied. The translation logic needs to match the template
+string to translate it, and will be unable to successfully match after interpolation occurs.
+Finally, any non-command portions of your code, including listeners, tasks, and views, should call
+`redbot.core.i18n.set_contextual_locales_from_guild` prior to translating any strings, as only
+commands are able to implicitly determine which guild's configured locale to use. See the example
+above for the exact recommended syntax.
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Generating a messages.pot file
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A ``messages.pot`` file is a template for translating all of the strings in your cog. It should
+be generated using ``redgettext`` - a modified version of ``pygettext`` for use with Red cogs.
+You can install ``redgettext`` by running :code:`pip install redgettext` in your development
+environment.
+
+Once you have ``redgettext`` installed, you will now need to run
+
+:code:`python -m redgettext -c [path_to_cog_folder]`
+
+This will generate a ``messages.pot`` file in ``path_to_cog_folder/locales``. This file will
+contain all strings to be translated, including docstrings.

-To generate the :code:`messages.pot` file, you will now need to run
-:code:`python -m redgettext -c [path_to_cog]`
-This file will contain all strings to be translated, including
-docstrings.
 (For advanced usage check :code:`python -m redgettext -h`)

+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Creating language specific translations
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
 You can now use a tool like `poedit
-<https://poedit.net/>`_ to translate the strings in your messages.pot file.
+<https://poedit.net/>`_ to translate the strings in your ``messages.pot`` file.
+
+Alternatively, you can use any text editor to manually create translations. To do this, first
+create a copy of the ``messages.pot`` file in the same folder, and name the copy
+``LANGUAGE-CODE.po``, where ``LANGUAGE-CODE`` is a five character language code supported by
+``[p]set locale``. Open the copy in your text editor of choice. This file contains the strings
+in your cog prefixed by ``msgid`` and an empty string for you to apply translations prefixed by
+``msgstr``. The original string should be translated to the target language by modifying the
+associated ``msgstr``. Any variables within curly braces should **not** be translated to avoid
+breaking the code when translations are applied. If keyword arguments were used in ``.format()``
+calls, it may be safe to re-order variables if the grammer of the language requires doing so.

+V2 Data Usage
+*************
+
+There has been much conversation on how to bring V2 data into V3 and, officially, we recommend that cog developers
+make use of the public interface in Config (using the categories as described in these docs) rather than simply
+copying and pasting your V2 data into V3. Using Config as recommended will result in a much better experience for

+
+However.
+
+We realize that many of our cog creators have expressed disinterest in writing converters for V2 to V3 style data.
+As a result we have opened up config to take standard V2 data and allow cog developers to manipulate it in V3 in
+much the same way they would in V2. The following examples will demonstrate how to accomplish this.

-If you're the owner of a small bot, fear not, this is yet another box that you have to tick from the
-`Discord development portal <https://discord.com/developers/applications/me>`_. |br|
-But if you're the owner of a public bot, things might be a lot less pleasant.
+A breakdown of how privileged intents are used in Red is provided below.

-To recap, unless you have
-message intent, you will only receive message content for:
+The **Message Content** intent is required to use text based commands and inputs for
+configuration and all built in functionality. App commands (also known as slash commands)
+are limited to a total of 100 top level commands, which is difficult to manage on
+a modular bot. The approach we have taken to address this issue is to allow 3rd party
+cogs to provide slash commands, but require bot owners to pick which slash commands
+they actually want to use with the ``[p]slash`` command.
+Under this system, bot management commands that are not exposed to users are still
+expected to be provided as text commands, which requires the bot to be able to access
+message content. There are no current plans to provide slash versions of core commands.

- Messages that your bot sends
- Messages that your bot receives in DM
- Messages in which your bot is mentioned
+.. note::
+  It is possible to work around this intent by using the ``--mentionable``
+  flag, and using the bot mention as a prefix to use text based commands.

-In case it's not clear by now, your bot needs message content to parse (see) the commands it receives. And if
-you don't attain message intent, your bot will not be able to... well, do anything. |br|
-The *bandaid fix* is for you to change your bot's prefix to a mention and a good portion of your commands will likely
-still work. You will however lose many functions, namely anything that relies on seeing message content to act. |br|
-The more *proper fix* is also not easy. You will need to justify your need for the message intent to Discord and
-they will only accept "compelling use cases".
-`It is not known what those even entail <https://gist.github.com/spiralw/091714718718379b6efcdbcaf807a024#q-what-usecases-will-be-valid>`_ at this point, but they have already stated that "parsing commands" is not a valid justification. |br|
-To make the matter worse, Discord is making `a huge push for all bot developers to implement slash commands <https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500000368501-Slash-Commands-FAQ>`_, which at the moment
-are rather lacking in features and cannot cover all the functionalities that standard commands offer. |br|
-Discord staff
-`stated that they will want your bot to have slash commands when you ask for message intent <https://gist.github.com/spiralw/091714718718379b6efcdbcaf807a024#q-if-we-are-granted-this-intent-will-bots-be-sanctioned-if-they-use-it-for-their-own-use-case-but-also-to-continue-to-run-normal-non-slash-commands-or-do-we-assume-that-if-you-are-granted-the-intent-you-are-trusted-with-it-and-are-allowed-to-use-it-for-additional-uses>`_. |br|
-Slash commands might very well turn out to be a big undertaking for the Red team to implement, even more now that our
-underlying library, `discord.py <https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py>`_, has been discontinued. |br|
-The time window that Discord is giving us to adapt is very narrow: **Red will likely not be able to support slash
-commands for April 2022** and you should plan accordingly.
+The **Guild Members** intent is required to properly cache member information, including
+what users are in each server, what roles they have, what their name is, etc. It is also
+required to receive events corresponding to when members join or leave a server, and when
+they change their nickname or other server options. Almost all cogs expect to be able
+to reference the member cache in order to avoid making API requests, and are not set
+up to check if the intent is present before doing so.
+
+The **Guild Presences** intent is required to view the activities and status of
+users. Cogs which perform actions on users based on their activity or status will
+be unable to access this information if this intent is not enabled.
