Hello Alex @hawc2 and Laura @lachapot,
Hola Jenn @jenniferisasi,

There's a temporary problem with the Voyant Tools server so I am preparing a note to warn readers of Análisis de corpus con Voyant Tools and its translation Corpus Analysis with Voyant Tools.

EN:
Voyant Tools is temporarily unavailable while a planned server transfer is completed. In the meantime, two web-based mirror services are available via the Voyant Tools website. We have contacted the developer for an update on the transfer and expected restoration of the main service. [September 2026]

Please let me know if you're happy with this wording.


Hola Jenn @jenniferisasi,

ES:
Voyant Tools no está disponible temporalmente mientras se lleva a cabo una migración planificada del servidor. Mientras tanto, hay dos servicios espejo basados en web disponibles a través de la página web de Voyant Tools. Nos hemos puesto en contacto con el desarrollador para obtener información actualizada sobre la migración y la fecha prevista para el restablecimiento del servicio principal. [Septiembre de 2026]

Please let me know if you're happy with this wording, and please let me know if there are mistakes in my Spanish!

Gracias 🌞

@anisa-hawes looks good to me. I just noticed this problem yesterday when trying to show some students Voyant, and was disappointed to see it was down. One of the two server links did not work for me, but the other worked fine, albeit a little slow.

Users can also always download the program and use it locally as an alternative

Wording looks good to me too, thanks, Anisa. I had no idea Voyant was temporarily down!

Thank you, Alex @hawc2 and Laura @lachapot,

Josir on our Portuguese team let me know about the problem!

As the lesson specifically provides guidance for readers working with the web-based instance of Voyant, I think adding the warning note is our best action for now.

Best,
Anisa
