Looking for feedback

The content translation process in the Training Team could use some improvement. Currently, our lessons rely on transcripts as their main written content. However, these machine-generated transcripts are often difficult to understand. We originally included them to ensure there was at least some content alongside the video, which could then be translated into different languages.

Looking for volunteers

Several courses are listed in the WordPress Credit course, so we’ve decided to review them thoroughly. Our goal is to catch and fix any misspellings, typos, broken links, or outdated information.

Update for last weeks triage squad

No meeting last week.
