Word counting type setting for Locales

Hi Polyglots,

WordPress coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. deals with word counting based on 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/ setting, through the setting Word count type, which is set in WordPress core translation, in the stringString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. words.

Here is an example for English (UK).

The translation should be words, characters_excluding_spaces or characters_including_spaces.
If none of these is found, words is the default.

The translation string includes the below context and comments:
Word count type. Do not translate!
If your word count is based on single characters (e.g. East Asian characters), enter ‘characters_excluding_spaces’ or ‘characters_including_spaces’. Otherwise, enter ‘words’. Do not translate into your own language.

I found many LocalesLocale 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/ with the wrong or no setting. While this isn’t a big problem because it falls back to words counting type, if you’re 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./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. you should probably check your Locale.

Below is a list of the Locale Teams that have not set or have set it wrong.

These Locales have not set the Word count type:
#arq, #art_xemoji, #az_TR, #ba, #bho, #brx, #co, #cor, #dv, #ewe, #es_HN, #fo, #fon, #frp, #fuc, #fy, #hat, #hau, #haw_US, #ibo, #ido, #kal, #kin, #, #li, #lij, #lin, #lmo, #mai, #me_ME, #mfe, #mlt, #mri, #nqo, #ory, #os, #pap_AW, #pcd, #art_xpirate, #sa_IN, #scn, #sna, #sq_XK, #srd, #ssw, #su_ID, #syr, #tg, #tuk, #twd, #tzm, #wol, #xho, #zgh, #zh_SG, #zul

These Locales have set wrong the Word count type:
#af, #ar, #ast, #azb, #bcc, #bn_BD, #bn_IN, #ca, #ckb, #cy, #dzo, #fa_AF, #fur, #ga, #gax, #haz, #hi_IN, #kab, #kmr, #kn, #lug, #lv, #mg_MG, #mk_MK, #ml_IN, #mn, #mr, #ms_MY, #my_MM, #pa_IN, #ps, #rhg, #skr, #snd, #sw, #ta_IN, #ug_CN, #ur

Here is the full list of settings for all Locales that have translation projects on translate.wp.org.

This reminds me that maybe there could be a page for checking the settings for all Locales or per Locale Team, to easily flag stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. like text direction (ltr or rtl), etc.

Note: The table was updated to fix the links to the Translation Teams and to include string that are pending aproval from an editor.

2017 year in review – share your local experience

2017 year in review – share your local experience

Dear polyglots,

We’re getting closer to the end of yet another year and thousands of new translations are rolling for WordPress, plugins, and themes every day. We’re finishing another successful year and stats are coming soon. But before we publish the end of year stats, it would be wonderful to hear how the year went for your local translation teams.

Could you post a comment here sharing:

  1. What went well this year for your team? What were your local successes?
  2. What didn’t go so well? What are you currently struggling with?
  3. Is there anything you’re missing in your translation work, something that’s high on your wishlist that you’d like the leadership team to concentrate on in the next year?

Thank you in advance!

Please don’t forget that in order to qualify for an automatic release, you need to have all strings in the following projects translated 100%:

2. Prepare the SVN directory for your locale for automated packages

If you later modify a translation (to fix a typo, for example), your language pack and release packageRelease package release package is a packaged version of WordPress.

Upcoming hard string freezeString freeze The term "string freeze" is used by the core team to mark the end of changes to the strings of an upcoming release. 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.

According to the development schedule, hard strings freeze should come on November 29th (+1d) and the release is expected on December 6th (+1d). There will be another post here and a global ping when that happens.

Thank you all for your hard work!
