## Individual rejection

PR available [here](https://github.com/GlotPress/gp-translation-helpers/pull/14).

## Bulk rejection

PR available [here](https://github.com/GlotPress/gp-translation-helpers/pull/24).
When multiple translations are selected and the option “Reject” chosen, on clicking
the “Apply” button

[[

A form pops up and the reason for the rejection and the comment can be added.

[[

The comment and the reject reasons will be added only to the first stringString 
A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude
of localized strings.. In the other stringsString A string is a translatable part
of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings., we
will add a link to the first string discussion.

If a comment only consists of a link to a GlotPressGlotPress GlotPress is the translation
management software that powers [Translate.WordPress.org](http://translate.wordpress.org).
More information is available at [glotpress.org](http://glotpress.org/). URLURL 
A specific web address of a website or web page on the Internet, such as a website’s
URL www.wordpress.org, the comment is changed to a link with the text `**Please 
continue the discussion here**`. Also, in subsequent rejects, the reviewer can just
use a URL to point to a comment to funnel the discussion there.

## Notifications

PR available [here](https://github.com/GlotPress/gp-translation-helpers/pull/20).

When we discuss a typo or request for context, the developer will **receive an email**:

 * Theme. Only the main developer will receive an email.
 * 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/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/)
   or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party.. All developers will receive 
   an email. Will be interesting to limit it to only the first 5 developers?
 * Other projects. We are exploring how to get the committer email from the repos(
   This email may not have a DotOrg user associated with it). This affects:
    - WordPress.
    - Patterns.
    - MetaMeta Meta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group. For
      us, this is the team that works on internal WordPress sites like WordCamp 
      Central and Make WordPress..
    - Apps.

Once a developer, a 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.**, a 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](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/glossary/#general-translation-editor)
after a [request by the project author](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/rosetta/theme-plugin-directories/#requesting-new-translation-editors)
or by the contributors themselves. or a CLPTECross-locale Project Translation Editor
A Cross-Locale Project Translation Editor is an account owned by a plugin or theme
author (or the authoring organization), which uses professional translators to localize
their product. The cross-locale project translation editor can import/validate strings
on a specific project for more than one locale. This role has the same capabilities
as a Project Translation Editor over multiple locales instead of one. Cross-Locale
Project Translation Editors need to meet a set of [criteria](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/rosetta/theme-plugin-directories/#cross-locale%c2%a0project-translation-editor)
before being appointed by [General Translation Editors.](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/glossary/#general-translation-editor)(
depending on the type of discussion) takes part in the conversation, the rest of
users with the same or similar profile (GTE, PTE and CLPTE) will stop receiving 
mails for that thread.

[[

**Opt-in vs opt-out**. We think the best approach is, by default, to send emails
to the developers, GTE, PTE and CLPTE, and add a functionality in the GlotPress 
main project page to:

 * Opt-out.
 * Change the email to receive these notifications.
