A string freeze also means that there will be no more strings added to the core project. Sometimes a string freeze has two phases a soft freeze and a hard freeze. A string freeze is announced on the Polyglots blog by the current release lead.. The remaining strings for the updated about page and a new welcome panel should follow soon.

You may have noticed a few new projects on Translate: Patterns and Meta > Pattern Directory. These projects were created to help provide a localized version of the new BlockBlockBlock is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor.

The Pattern Directory will act similarly to the Theme and PluginPluginA 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 directories, allowing users to search for unique block patterns to use on their sites via https://wordpress.org/patterns/.
Block patterns are a streamlined way to add pre-designed block layouts to your site. As both the use and features of block patterns expand, the Pattern Directory is expected to launch along with the upcoming July 20th, 2021 WordPress 5.8 release.
Help Translate the Block Patterns
After the WordPress 5.8 translation is complete, you can help to create a localized experience of this new feature by translating the Block Patterns included in the new directory via:
This is a great project to encourage new or not currently active translation contributors to get involved in! Many Patterns have a small number of stringsStringA string is a translatable part of the software.

What’s coming next
The future of the Block Pattern Directory will include third-party, user-generated block patterns. The mechanism for translating these block patterns has not been finalized. This is a great time to follow the related conversations and help weigh in on the future of how to translate user-generated block patterns.
There are a few possibilities being discussed, including:

Creating a localized copy of each locale, similar to forking an existing block pattern.
Conversation around how to translate user-generated block patterns in the future is happening on this proposal from@tellyworth, and will continue to happen in #core and #core-editor chats in the future. Updates on these discussions will also be included in the regular Polyglots weekly meetings and on the Make/Polyglots blog as well.

There are some items that I’m still not sure if this page should include. Please leave a comment with your thoughts.
Keep in mind we are trying to come up with a minimum set of criteria as a guideline, rather than covering all the best practices and expectations.
“(PTE) may suggest improvements of source texts back to the relevant developers”
I think this is a nice-to-have quality for a PTE but doesn’t have to be a requirement for a first-time PTE. I wouldn’t turn down someone from becoming a PTE just because they haven’t learned how to do this.
“(PTE) joins the Global Make WordPress Slack via https://make.wordpress.org/chat/ & Locale specific Slack”
Same as above, I don’t think not being on global/local SlackSlackSlack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/. is a blocker. I’d still grant someone a PTE role without joining Slack.
“Role Removal Process” section
I added this section that was not in the Gdocs draft.
I will remove the callout saying “This handbook is still in progress” on the handbook page once we sort out the above items.
This is a short announcement for an update on the documentation for the release process of WordPress release packages with translations. The following handbook pages have been updated/created:
The overall recommendation remains unchanged: Ensure that every localeLocaleLocale = 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/ is always eligible for automated release packagesAutomated Release PackagesAutomated release packages are release packages of locales that have no custom changes..
As of today all localesLocaleLocale = 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/, with only one exception, are already using automated release packages. 👏 To reflect this status in the handbook the documentation has been restructured and updated by removing outdated information and replacing complex descriptions with shorter and simple question/answer sections.
Here’s a summary of the updates:
The documentation for manual release packages has been moved into a separate page with a warning that it’s no longer actively supported.
The requirements for automated releases packages have been simplified into three simple rules:
Never had any custom changes
No custom changes for the current stable version
Minor custom changes for the current stable version
It’s no longer recommended to use the tags/ directory, only branches/ and trunk/. All existing tags already have been removed.
It’s not allowed to use the repositoryWordPress Localization RepositoryThe WordPress Localization Repository at https://i18n.svn.wordpress.org/ is a Subversion repository where official WordPress translations are maintained. See Working with the Translation Repository for details. for other directories/files which are not related to WordPress coreCoreCore is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress..
If you have made changes like a translated readme.html oder wp-config-sample.php you’re also responsible to keep up to date with the latest development and update the files accordingly.
It’s required that any by default included plugins are also hosted on the WordPress PluginPluginA 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.

They also must be declared as compatible with the latest stable WordPress release. Otherwise the plugin must not be bundled with the localized release packageRelease packageA release package is a packaged version of WordPress. That is, a ZIP file consisting of WordPress in its entirety, along with PO and MO files for core, the PO and MO files of default themes and Akismet, and any custom changes a locale has. In the past, most locales built their release package using the form in Rosetta’s dashboard..
Those rules exist to ensure the continued quality standard of the default WordPress release packages and to release localized release packages as fast as possible after an official WordPress release.

The filters have been extended to allow limiting the term search by scope. For example search only in originals or only in references.
