Purpose of this PR:

I added all strings from the English translation file that were missing in German and translated them. I also reworded existing German translations.

It's probably best to squash-merge this PR, I created a commit for each section and also notable changes, but there don't need to be that many commits on main.

How to Test:

Have it proofread by a German-speaking person?

What Has Been Changed:

German translations

Related Issue Link:

None.

Summary by CodeRabbit

"Rennen"  implies that these are only for races and not battles. Use "Spiele" to match English translation
Technically correct, but ugly. "Tückgängig" is well understood in this context
More loosely translated, but sounds more clear

Walkthrough

The German translation adds strings for WiiCompiled, NAND handling, Dolphin security checks, mod-to-patch conversion, and patch export. It also revises existing UI text, removes obsolete keys, and updates translator credits.

Cohort / File(s) Summary
German localization
WheelWizard/Resources/Languages/de.yml
Adds and revises German UI strings for installation flows, Dolphin validation, patch conversion, settings, warnings, errors, statuses, and dialogs. Removes obsolete translation keys and adds a translator credit.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f33aa

The PR improves German localization but still contains several visible wording, terminology, and spelling defects, including reversed game statistics and an inaccurate update status. It is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up to correct these bounded UI issues.

Poem

Ein Häschen prüft den deutschen Text,
Kein UI-Wort bleibt mehr verhext.
NAND und Patches, klar benannt,
Dolphin-Warnungen fein gespannt.
Neue Zeilen hoppeln herein,
So soll Wheel Wizard verständlich sein.

In `@WheelWizard/Resources/Languages/de.yml`:
- Line 95: Update the German translation for state.updating from a
completed-update message to an active-progress message, using “Wird
aktualisiert...” or an equivalent wording that clearly indicates the update is
still in progress.
- Line 342: Update the localized message for launch_clear_patches_found to
describe starting the game without patches rather than without mods, while
preserving the existing Patches-folder prompt and warning.
- Line 262: Correct the user-facing German localization typos in the identified
entries: capitalize “Spielen” in recomp_finished, and fix “werdn” to “werden”,
“makiert” to “markiert”, “Dowload” to “Download”, and “gändert” to “geändert”.
- Around line 67-68: Correct the German translations for total_games_won and
total_games_played so each label matches its statistic: total_games_won must
indicate won games, and total_games_played must indicate played games.
