+If your PR introduces user-facing messages, we need to ensure they are translated. 
+Please add the translations to [`locales/app.yml`][app_yml]. For simple messages 
+without arguments (e.g., "hello world"), we can simply translate them according 
+(Tip: ChatGPT or similar LLMs is good at translation). If a message contains 
+arguments, e.g., "hello <NAME>", please follow this convention:
+
+```yml
+"hello {name}":        # key
+  en: "hello %{name}"  # translation
+```
+
+Arguments in the key should be in format `{argument_name}`, and they will have
+a preceeding `%` when used in translations.
