Hi Chantal.

Regarding “Which language is your language? So we can add you as a PTEProject Translation Editor A Project Translation Editor (often referred to as PTE) is a person, who has access to validate strings on a specific project (for example BuddyPress, WooCommerce or Twenty Fourteen) for one specific locale. A project translation editor can approve strings that are added by translation contributors. Per project translation, editors are appointed by a general translation editor after a request by the project author or by the contributors themselves..”, I don’t grok how the translation process should happen.

Only PTEs will be able to approve pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. 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/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party translations?

A plugin author will have no control over the process?

My language is ‘en’, nothing to be translated. :-/

Thanks!

  Never mind. got the instructions here.
  
  So now lets wait for cs_CZ, sk_SK and el communities pick up the validation.

  All people dealing with translations here are volunteers. Unfortunately, for many languages there is a large number of pending translations waiting to be checked.
  You may submit a NEW request here (rather than commenting on a two year old post) where you indicate what pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website.

  You can find what people are working with your language at https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/
  and if your locale team has a SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/. channel, then you should be able to find out the details at https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/about/teams/local-slacks/
  It’s usually good to get in touch with your translation team to learn about style guide, etc. That can save a lot of time both for you and for the person, who’s going to check the translation.

  Hi @rameez_iqbal
  You put your request as a comment to a three year old post that virtually nobody visits. I can assure you that nobody from the Greek team will stumble upon your request here.
  
  Make a new post instead. There’s a form for that near the top at https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/

  By the way, do you know Greek well? Would you be interested in being appointed as editor for the Greek translation of this pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website.

  If you want the Italian team to see your request, then you should create a new post in this blog, instead of adding a comment to an old post.

I’m going to add way more translations, can anyone help me to approve them?

Thanks

Hi @victoralbala
Very few people will see your request when you add it as a comment on a five year old, since long resolved topic for a totally different pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. 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/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party.

But fear not. I’ll tell you how you can get going.

You could have made a new post in this blog where we are now, and mentioned the tag #es_AR in order to notify the translation team for this localeLocale 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/. (Yes, they’ll all get emails now with a link to this my very comment, so it’s possible they’ll reactReact React is a JavaScript library that makes it easy to reason about, construct, and maintain stateless and stateful user interfaces. https://reactjs.org/. soon… )

But the best way to do is to join the special SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/. team for es_AR. It’s a two-step process, but you’ve already done step 1 and can therefore jump immediately to step 2:
Step 1: Join the global Slack team for WordPress contributors via https://make.wordpress.org/chat
Step 2: Join the Argentinian Slack team using your special forwarding email address that you can see on the page I linked to under “Step 1”. The address to register yourself is https://wpargentina.slack.com/signup

And when you get there, find their channel for translations and say something like “Hola amig@s. Quiero ser PTEProject Translation Editor A Project Translation Editor (often referred to as PTE) is a person, who has access to validate strings on a specific project (for example BuddyPress, WooCommerce or Twenty Fourteen) for one specific locale.

  Hey @victoralbala,
  I’ve checked your stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. but they are not following the informal ‘vos’ pronoun we use in es-AR. Our localeLocale 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/ isn’t an es-ES copy.
  You should correct them all for us to aprove them.
