If you're running Alaveteli in another language, you'll want to show
your users localised versions of the help pages. Even if you're running

WhatDoTheyKnow, and are therefore relevant only to the UK. You should
take these pages as inspiration, but review their content with a view to
your jurisdiction. The important pages to customise and translate are:

* [About](https://github.com/mysociety/alaveteli/blob/master/app/views/help/about.html.erb): why the website exists, why it works, etc
* [contact](https://github.com/mysociety/alaveteli/blob/master/app/views/help/contact.html.erb): how to get in touch
