 3. I can still see 170 stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software.
    A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. waiting at [https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/nl/default/wp-themes/coblocks](https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/nl/default/wp-themes/coblocks)
 4. I guess someone from the relevant team may get around with a comment. But in the
    meantime I’ve got a question for you:
 5. If your translation turns out to be good enough, would you be interested in being
    appointed 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](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2018/08/19/yesterday-18-august-2018-i/?output_format=md#general-translation-editor)
    and [Project Translation Editor](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2018/08/19/yesterday-18-august-2018-i/?output_format=md#project-translation-editor)
    for this theme in Dutch? In that case your translations wouldn’t end up in waiting
    status.
 6. Further: For more direct and convenient communication with the Dutch team, you 
    might consider joining the Dutch SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat
    Platform [https://slack.com/](https://slack.com/). The WordPress community has 
    its own Slack Channel at [https://make.wordpress.org/chat/](https://make.wordpress.org/chat/)
    team. You’ll find more details if you search for “Dutch” in [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/about/teams/local-slacks/](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/about/teams/local-slacks/)
    
    Note: In order to easily add yourself to that team, you might first need to create
    your forwarding address for notifications from Slack via [https://make.wordpress.org/chat/](https://make.wordpress.org/chat/)

     * Hello Tor-Bjorn,
     * Thanks for your repley. I overlooked the waiting stringsString A string is a
       translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of 
       localized strings., what a relief:)
     * I will keep the editor-thing at the back of my mind, but for now I don’t want
       that function.
        I will wait a little longer before I contact the Dutch team.
     * Hans
