     translations for [#ja](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/?locale=ja) 
     and left almost all as Need Changes. Please follow the Japanese Style Guide: [https://ja.wordpress.org/team/handbook/translation/translation-style-guide/](https://ja.wordpress.org/team/handbook/translation/translation-style-guide/)
     After your corrections, please come back here to request the PTEProject Translation
