Google base locale

Closed

chwistophe opened this issue

Hello there,

Would it be possible to support the scrapping base locale as an input parameter? I noticed that you're using hl=enas scrapping parameter on the Google Maps url, which is a bit limiting when most of your reviews are not written in English. Activating/deactivating automated translation is not so suitable when your main language is NOT English as most reviews would get auto-translated.

Suppose the following case :

The Maps profile is based in Italy, in a touristy place.
60% of reviews are written in Italian, 25% English, 10% French, 5% Spanish

With auto-translation,

75% of your scrapped reviews would be "polluted" (as translation is not so accurate tbh) with the "(Auto Translated) .." because of hl=en
25% would not be tagged as Auto Translated

Without auto-translation,

You'd lose 40% of the content of your reviews if you're an Italian reader

With hl=it+ auto-translation on,

You'd enjoy the 60% in a native-written way
You'd get a not-so-accurate but still understandable 40%

Allowing hl=it when scrapping would just allow us, users, to decide which locale we want to prioritize.

Cheers 🙏, Christophe
