We are… Hello there, Polyglots. We are requesting commit access for es_ES for user [@jartes](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jartes/), as he’s helping us with the translations and we want to have another user in the team. Is this something that we can do internally, or we need to ask for permission? If so, this is a request 🙂 Thanks. ### Share this: * [ Threads ](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2016/12/06/hello-there-polyglots/?share=threads) * [ Bluesky ](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2016/12/06/hello-there-polyglots/?share=bluesky) * [ Facebook ](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2016/12/06/hello-there-polyglots/?share=facebook) * [ X ](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2016/12/06/hello-there-polyglots/?share=x) * [ Mastodon ](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2016/12/06/hello-there-polyglots/?share=mastodon) * [ WhatsApp ](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2016/12/06/hello-there-polyglots/?share=jetpack-whatsapp) * [ LinkedIn ](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2016/12/06/hello-there-polyglots/?share=linkedin) * [Login to Reply](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fpolyglots%2F2016%2F12%2F06%2Fhello-there-polyglots%2F%23respond&locale=en_US) * [Clear to-do](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2016/12/06/hello-there-polyglots/?output_format=md#) 1. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/85b3ccf3d505b40e64c56ee29c72bfa9f166468c4998288edcb561b53c804c64? s=32&d=mm&r=g) 2.

[@bi0xid](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bi0xid/) Can you give me a quick update about the current users? Beside you, [@pandem](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pandem/), [@txanny](https://profiles.wordpress.org/txanny/), and [@fernandot](https://profiles.wordpress.org/fernandot/) have also access. Should those remain having access to the repoWordPress Localization Repository The **WordPress Localization Repository** at [https://i18n.svn.wordpress.org/](https://i18n.svn.wordpress.org/) is a [Subversion repository](https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Subversion) where official WordPress translations are maintained. See [Working with the Translation Repository](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/translating/working-with-the-translation-repository/) for details.? 10. * ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/85b3ccf3d505b40e64c56ee29c72bfa9f166468c4998288edcb561b53c804c64? s=32&d=mm&r=g) * [Torsten Landsiedel](https://profiles.wordpress.org/zodiac1978/) 4:39 pm _on_ December 7, 2016 * [@ocean90](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ocean90/) Okay, the “commit access” was a hint, but I thought it was “lost in translation” and they just wanted to know about adding PTEs/GTEs. Sorry for the interruption. Please move on. 😉 * ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ea3385f8fe14be10e41fb5bd87e9b3cd6035876fe36a9a6a8f27b5d7d8e02e2f? s=32&d=mm&r=g) * [Rafa Poveda](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bi0xid/) 4:11 pm _on_ December 24, 2016 * Sorry about not answering before.

[@pandem](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pandem/) and [@txanny](https://profiles.wordpress.org/txanny/) are not active in those duties, so you can remove their commit access. * Thanks. - ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dad360d6d33cc359ccc77beb0de91ea2ac1c3ccaf28550b1e2727d5f6127ad00? s=32&d=mm&r=g) - [Petya Raykovska](https://profiles.wordpress.org/petya/) 10:04 am _on_ January 4, 2017 - [@ocean90](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ocean90/) Any updates here?
