Hola Jorge,
I deleted your e-mail since this is a public forum where spambots unfortunately DO harvest addresses to target.
Anyone who is logged in can suggest translations at https://translate.wordpress.org/ A good thing is to start by translating a 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 you use and therefore know well. Once you have suggested several stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings., 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 and Project Translation Editor needs to check and approve them. Once 95% of the strings from the code have been approved (this threshold is for plugins and themes), a translation package will be generated and distributed.
Oh, and if your translation is of good quality, then the GTEGeneral Translation Editor A General Translation Editor (often referred to as GTE) is a person, who has global access to validate strings on all projects for a specific locale.’s would probably be happy to appoint you as 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. for that plugin, so that your contributions become approved automatically and you also will be able to validate pending translations.
There may be thousands of strings waiting for approval, so once you’ve made some pending contributions, it’s probably good to get in touch with the GTE’s of your selected 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/ and ask them to have a look at your pending translations. You can find a list of the relevant people for your locale at https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/
There are several active Spanish 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/. And they do co-operate, borrowing translations between locales and adjusting them for their own locale.
Pay close attention to the specifics of each locale. There are links to style guides and glossaries at https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/tools/glotpress-translate-wordpress-org/list-of-glossaries-per-locale/
For more convenient and direct communication, many locales have their own SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/.
