Hello,

Today I noticed that the Greek version of ‘wordpress org’ (el. subdomain) contains some possibly outdated information about using the mo filesMO files MO, or Machine Object is a binary data file that contains object data referenced by a program. It is typically used to translate program code, and may be loaded or imported into the GNU gettext program. This is the format used in a WordPress install. These files are normally located inside .../wp-content/languages/, while now it is possible select the site’s language in the general settings and have language packs downloaded automatically.

I’d like to ask what happens in these cases? Is there a documented procedure that should be followed?

Thanks in advance.

Procedure for what? You should contact the General Translation EditorsTranslation 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 and Project Translation Editor, in that case me and @dyrer for suggestions…

All locale specific WordPress sites are referred to as “Rosetta sites.” The name was inspired from the ancient Rosetta Stone, which contained more or less the same text in three different languages. section of the handbook. I’ll need more time to get familiar with the details.

      You mean through this make/polyglots channel? I also noticed there is a discussion forum at wpgreece.
      
      Should I just let you know about possible issues I noticed on the rosetta site or should I join the translation team and suggest translations?
      
      Also, is there a template of a Rosetta site in English?
      
      Thanks in advance.

The requests (here) are not a good idea, so we don’t spam the rest of the polyglots for these issues. You can also find us at wordpress.slack.com (#polygots or PM) or our own wpgreece.slack.org
