# Hi Polyglots,

I am translator contributor of the Kyrgyz language, I have translated some part 
of wordpress to this language, but it seems that translations are “waiting” for 
a long time. Can anyone give me approve access for Kyrgyz language.
 I am native
speaker of this language.

 3.  Hello [@erkebekab](https://profiles.wordpress.org/erkebekab/),
      Thank you for 
     your request and your enthusiasm to take on [#kir](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/?locale=kir).
     I’ve created the RosettaRosetta The code name of the theme for the local WordPress
     sites (eg. bg.wordpress.org is a “Rosetta” site). All locale specific WordPress
     sites are referred to as “Rosetta sites.” The name was inspired from the ancient
     [Rosetta Stone](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_Stone), which contained 
     more or less the same text in three different languages. site and added you as
     a 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.

     Editor (often referred to as GTE) is a person, who has global access to validate
     strings on **all projects for a specific locale.**.
 4.  You should now be able to approve translations and add new members to your translation
     team as well as to manage your locale site [https://kir.wordpress.org/](https://kir.wordpress.org/)
 5.  Here’s the general information you need to know:
 6.   * [https://kir.wordpress.org/](https://kir.wordpress.org/) – your Rosetta site(
        local site). In our experience, a locale thrives when there’s a team behind
        it. So I would start by setting up the site and adding a page for potential
        translators to help out.
      * The development project is ready for translation at [https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/kir](https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/kir).
        Alongside WordPress itself, it’s good to prioritize translating the projects
        that ship with it first – The default themes Twenty Sixteen, Twenty Fifteen,
        Twenty Fourteen and Akismet.
      * Please get to know how the team works by reading the Translators Handbook –
        [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/),
        a good place to start is the General Expectations page.
      * As a General Translation Editor for the locale, we request that you fill out
        your WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is 
        created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source
