Looking for feedback
- We’re currently updating the Training Team handbooks and would appreciate your input. To help prioritize translation efforts, which content do you think should be considered high priority for translation
Feedback – Suggest High Priority Content #3400
Looking for volunteers
- We need your help in finding all the content that could be updated and consolidated. We would love to have two groups of volunteers – one that will go through all the handbook content, and one that will check the courses. Please state your interest, and we will help you organize and start working on these important issues.
- Recently, the Polish translation of the course “Beginner WordPress User” was finished – big thanks to @meloniq and all the other users from Poland. They managed to finish translating the course, excerpts, and subtitles (both for WordCamp.tv and YouTube). We need volunteers to help us create thumbnails for all the lessons that are part of this translated course. If you want to contribute and help us, just reply to this thread – we will help you with everything you need to successfully finish this task (and earn a Training Contributor badge if you don’t have one yet).
- Also, at the Contributor Day Contributor Days are standalone days, frequently held before or after WordCamps but they can also happen at any time. They are events where people get together to work on various areas of https://make.wordpress.org/ There are many teams that people can participate in, each with a different focus. https://2017.us.wordcamp.org/contributor-day/ https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/ of the WordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. Asia 2026 event, we started working on the project of creating thumbnails for all the lessons that need them. You are more than welcome to join us and help us with this important and interesting project.
- We still have trouble finding a reviewer for already translated content. Maybe you can help us, or know someone who can review the content? Here is the short list:
- Some Education Initiative handbooks have been updated recently. You’re welcome to review the handbooks, and please let us know if you notice any issues.:
