Before publishing this post (first post from a user is always moderated), I deleted the entries for _formal variants, since they’re included with their main 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/.
Question: Have you asked these users if they know their respective target language well and want to be appointed 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.?

  Correct, these people have already contributed by adding translations. I trust them, so I want to make them editors.

      Thanks @nilovelez I’ve invalidated the entry to es_ES

      Hold on a second… @cmanon is the pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website.

      Rather than you guys seemingly talking to yourselves and ignoring me – can we start a dialog and work something out? This is my first experience dealing with translations and frankly it has not been pleasant at all.
      
      At minimum I would like these people to be approved as editors:
      
      #es_ES – @cmanon, @jrfoell (both pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website.

      #nl_NL – @cheffheid, @jrfoell
      
      If we can’t make that happen please tell me why not rather than simply denying the request.

        I have updated your request to reflect this comment of yours.
        So now we wait for #es_ES and #nl_NL to get around and have a look at the waiting stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings..

Some stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. rejected for nl_NL, because they were not translated or quality was poor.
Tor-Bjorn Fjellner 9:15 am on July 26, 2019

Could someone from the #es_ES team please have a look at the contributions by @cmanon and @jrfoell ?

@tobifjellner, sorry the delay…
There are not enough translated stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. sent to review (only 4 & 1). Maybe they could send some of the 71 untranslated strings that remains.
Thank you.

  Based on the feedback from @nobnob I’m now removing the “to-do” status of this request.

Hey all – I added @einzelfabrik to the list of translation (#de_DE) contributors. Here’s his verbal confirmation: https://github.com/cmanon/wp-strava/issues/63

I think I’m still waiting on @cmanon approval for #es_ES – he’s the main pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website.

  Hi @jrfoell!
  
  Please, let me refer to the post I already published on October 16th, 2019.
  
  As of today, there are still no translations pending to be reviewed (from already translated, none from @cmanon).
  
  At that time, there were 71 stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. pending. Today, there are 24 (dev/stable) plus 81 (readme file) without translation.
  
  Let me insist… at least, please ask @cmanon to send some of those pending strings so we can check them.
  
  Thank you!
