They are events where people get together to work on various areas of [https://make.wordpress.org/](https://make.wordpress.org/) There are many teams that people can participate in, each with a different focus. [https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/) at WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress.

[Learn more](https://central.wordcamp.org/about/). Torrelodones 2024, the Spanish documentation team started the translation for the end-user documentation. The initial objectives were: * Decide the day and time for the weekly team meeting * Define responsibilities for meeting facilitators * Technical requirements for a documentation team member * How to effectively coordinate with the Spanish translation team * Review the Style Guide for translation * Define the translation process * Suggest new words to the Spanish (Spain) Glossary ## Conclusions of the Spanish documentation team ### Weekly meetings * The team is already meeting on Fridays at 09:00 UTC in the [Spanish Slack channel](http://wpes.slack.com) [#documentacion](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/tag/documentacion/). The first meeting will take place on Friday 5 April 2024 * The meetings will be announced in the Spanish SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform [https://slack.com/](https://slack.com/). The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at [https://make.wordpress.org/chat/](https://make.wordpress.org/chat/), same way as the global team does ### Responsibilities for meeting facilitators * The team agreed that [@estelaris](https://profiles.wordpress.org/estelaris/) will run the first few meetings and then it will be rotated among contributors * Whoever runs the meeting must prepare the agenda based on the previous meeting ### Contributor technical requirements * Know sufficient English to understand the content that is being translated * Be familiar with the [Spanish style guide](https://es.wordpress.org/team/handbook/traducciones/guia/) and [glossary](https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/es/default/glossary/) * Basic understanding of GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged by the repository owner. [https://github.com/](https://github.com/) ### Translation Style Guide Another goal is to improve the [Spanish Style Guide](https://es.wordpress.org/team/handbook/traducciones/guia/) to be able to write the documentation, following the rules already instilled by the translation team. This work will be based on the [Documentation Style Guide](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/style-guide/) written by the global team. Follow the work in [GitHub Spain Handbook #288](https://github.com/WordPress/spain-handbook/issues/288). ## Translation process The translation process the team will follow includes: * Update the style guide and have it reviewed and approved by the translation team * Prioritize articles for translation (high, medium, low) as well as add tasks to the issues (content, screenshots, videos, etc) * Work with [#meta](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/tag/meta/) team to open the es.wordpress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users.

They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory [https://wordpress.org/plugins/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/) or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party. Handbook goals are done. [@milana_cap](https://profiles.wordpress.org/milana_cap/) suggested that all reps for different projects make sure that their projects are added in the [Team Goals for Q1 2021](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GP8VqquSwS9YvBnmBxQyka2bziswj09sVJZ1xVrDjg4/edit) document. This should become a regular practice to have goals listed in our handbook as it’s easier to keep track with projects and contributors can see the progress. [@estelaris](https://profiles.wordpress.org/estelaris/) updated her project goals and will have and will have the first post ready for review before publishing. [@crstauf](https://profiles.wordpress.org/crstauf/) posted their goals as follows: * stay on top of pending user notes: check twice per day. * optimize process for handling feedback for doc changes. ### Project Updates * External Linking Policy: [@milana_cap](https://profiles.wordpress.org/milana_cap/) informed the team that she’ll write a post and then we’ll move to the second phase. For anyone interested, take a look here: [https://make.wordpress.org/docs/2020/12/01/external-linking-policy-1st-review-of-plugin-developer-handbook/](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/2020/12/01/external-linking-policy-1st-review-of-plugin-developer-handbook/) * Obsolete P2P2 P2 or O2 is the term people use to refer to the Make WordPress blog. It can be found at [https://make.wordpress.org](https://make.wordpress.org/) Docs: [@themiked](https://profiles.wordpress.org/themiked/) suggested that obsolete P2 docs will stay in their place, wrapped with something to indicate their absoluteness. To use the red Warning box short-code along with some phrasing that everyone will then want to modify, but it’s easier to edit than create so that’ll move things along faster.  * User Notes: @cstauf mentioned that before the weekend there were no pending user notes. There are however 16 entries for feedback to docs changes that [@audrasjb](https://profiles.wordpress.org/audrasjb/) has indicated that he will handle. * Migrating from Codex to HelpHub: Content team is migrating and re-routing Codex to Code Reference HooksHooks In WordPress theme and development, hooks are functions that can be applied to an action or a Filter in WordPress. Actions are functions performed when a certain event occurs in WordPress. Filters allow you to modify certain functions. Arguments used to hook both filters and actions look the same.. 296 out of 355 are completed (83.4% from 80.3% from last week).

In order to make meetings more useful we want to try to keep updates as short as possible at the beginning of the meeting( or maybe even during day prior to the meeting). Most of the meeting will be dedicated to one specific part of Docs team responsibility― HelpHub is published and it will no longer have dedicated meetings every second week. The rest of the meeting time will be used for quick discussions/decisions on any other part of Docs team work. Also, whenever possible, it would be good to close the meeting with clear tasks for the next meeting. Facilitators and note takers will be rotating. At every meeting one volunteer will be assigned for the next meeting.

Everyone are invited to review their parts of Handbook and indicate things that are missing or are out of date. A plan on adding/fixing these should also be made. ### What is my part of Handbook? Every project has its part in Handbook. You know the best how to contribute to project(s) you are involved with and, therefore, you know better than the others if Handbook is complete and up to date for that specific project. The [team page](https://make.wordpress.org/docs/handbook/the-team/) is mapping responsibilities and will be used as general guide for Handbook parts ownership. If you are missing from the list or your responsibilities have changed since Team page was created, do let us know and we’ll fix it. Or you can fix it yourself.
