# Howdy Polyglots I am the plugin author for…

Howdy Polyglots!

I am the plugin author for Typekit Fonts for WordPress (https://wordpress.org/plugins/
typekit-fonts-for-wordpress/). We have a number of great translation editors that
we’d like to be able to approve translation for our plugin. Please add the following
WordPress.org users as translation editors for their respective locales:

 *  [#zh-cn](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/tag/zh-cn/) – [@cai_miao](https://profiles.wordpress.org/cai_miao/)
 *  [#ja](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/?locale=ja) – [@themeboy](https://profiles.wordpress.org/themeboy/)

If you have any questions, just comment here. Thank you!

 3.  James, I’ve added you as en #en-au translator 😏

 6.  Thank you [@netweb](https://profiles.wordpress.org/netweb/)!
 7.  I’d like to import the existing Japanese PO file into translate.wordpress.orgtranslate.
     wordpress.org The platform for contributing to the translation of WordPress core,
     themes and plugins.. Does that mean I need to be an editor for the JA language?
 8.  Likewise for zh-cn and es, there’s existing translations that I’d like to import
     into translate.wordpress.org as well.
 9.  I only see the import PO file option for en-au, and not for JA or zh-cn. Presumably
     that’s because I’m not an editor of those languages?
 10. James

      * Yes, correct on all accounts 😉
      * Though because you don’t speak Japanese or Chinese these localesLocale Locale
        = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code,
        for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales
        supported by WordPress in [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/)
        will not add you as an editor.
      * Your original request here will address this though once those translators 
        have been added to the respective locales as they will then be able to perform
        the import themselves.

 14. So sorry about the delay. I added [@themeboy](https://profiles.wordpress.org/themeboy/)
     as a translation editorTranslation Editor Translation editors can approve translations
     for projects. The GTE (General Translation Editor) and LM (Locale Manager) roles
     can add new users with the "Project Translation Editor" role that can approve 
     translations for specific projects. There are two different Translation Editor
     roles:
      [General Translation Editor](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2015/10/09/howdy-polyglots-i-am-the-plugin-author-for-6/?output_format=md#general-translation-editor)
     and [Project Translation Editor](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2015/10/09/howdy-polyglots-i-am-the-plugin-author-for-6/?output_format=md#project-translation-editor)
     for JA.
