Subject: [PATCH] feat: implement multilingual support for core pages
 (en/de/fr)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Multilingual Implementation (Pages 1-4 of 5):
- Add data-i18n attributes across about, researcher, leader, implementer pages
- Mobile-responsive language selector (dropdown desktop, icons mobile)
- Auto-detection of page context for appropriate translation loading
- Translation files ready for 3 languages: English, German, French

Critical Fixes:
- about.html: Fixed missing i18n scripts (CRITICAL - language selector was non-functional)
- All pages: Added comprehensive data-i18n attributes for user-facing text

Pages Completed:
✅ about.html - 55 attributes + i18n scripts (CRITICAL FIX)
✅ researcher.html - 24 key section headings and text
✅ leader.html - 18 major section headings and descriptions
✅ implementer.html - 10 primary headings (code examples universal)

Translation Infrastructure:
- public/locales/en/*.json - English translation files (5 pages)
- public/locales/de/*.json - German translation files (5 pages)
- public/locales/fr/*.json - French translation files (5 pages)
- public/js/i18n-simple.js - Enhanced with page detection
- public/js/components/language-selector.js - Responsive UI component

Architecture:
- Declarative translation marking (data-i18n, data-i18n-html)
- Automatic page detection via URL mapping
- localStorage persistence for language preference
- Event-driven language switching with page reload

Mobile UX:
- Desktop (≥768px): Dropdown with full language names
- Mobile (<768px): Icon-only buttons (🇬🇧 🇩🇪 🇫🇷) with 44x44px touch targets
- WCAG AA compliance for accessibility

Status: 4 of 5 core pages fully functional in 3 languages
Next: faq.html pending (hook validator issue to resolve)

           Current AI governance approaches—policy documents, training programmes, ethical guidelines—rely on voluntary compliance. LLM systems can bypass these controls simply by not invoking them.
