Hi @velmyshanovnyi
I had a quick look at some of the projects you mentioned here.

The idea is that translations should be approved by people who know the target language well enough to check that translations are correct, follow the style guide of each 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/ (see: https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/tools/glotpress-translate-wordpress-org/list-of-glossaries-per-locale/ ), etc.

Best candidates for this are the translators themselves.
So we urge translators to register an account with WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/, submit a decent number of waiting stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings., and then get in touch with their language team for feedback and possibly getting awarded 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. status. In many cases by joining the language-specific SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/.

(And I think you, as 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 developer also want your plugin to blend in well with the translations of themes and WordPress coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress., right?)

I’d suggest that you try to get in touch with those users that contributed a lot of strings 1-2 years ago and ask them if they’d (still) be interested in being appointed as PTE for their languages.
The best way to reach out to them would be by making a post in your plugin support forumSupport Forum WordPress Support Forums is a place to go for help and conversations around using WordPress. Also the place to go to report issues that are caused by errors with the WordPress code and implementations. and mentioning them (just like I mentioned you in the beginning of this reply).
Once they confirm, come back here, make a new post and suggest them as PTE’s.
