Hello Polyglots,
I’m the author of the following theme: https://wordpress.org/themes/palmeria/
We have 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 that we’d like to be able to approve translation for our theme. Please add the following user 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 German: @yourgrandma

  Thanks for taking a look! We can assure you that it was a human translation. Could you please direct us what exactly looks unsuitable so we can ask our translator to double check it?

    Hi, sure. But here is not the right place to discuss single stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings., here you’ll do only the first step for 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. request. However, short hints: some strings are translated 1:1 (e. g. “Begin installing 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” – “Beginne Installieren des Plugins”), or translations make no sense like “Classic Boxed” -“Starres Layout (Boxed)”, “Masonry”-“Mauerwerk-Layout (Masonry)”.
    
    Several strings do not meet our guidelines and glossary. Please advise your translator to read https://de.wordpress.org/mitwirken/how-the-german-community-handles-pte-requests/
    and to follow these guidelines.
    
    We are here to help you/your translator and will be happy to assist you/your translator with an accurate translation. Meet us in our Slack-Channel.
