### **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](https://github.com/WordPress/Learn/issues/3400)

### **Looking for volunteers**

 * Our colleague [@devmuhib](https://profiles.wordpress.org/devmuhib/) updated two
   handbook pages, which can be used as guidance:
    - [https://make.wordpress.org/training/handbook/training-team-how-to-guides/content-localization/translating-content/](https://make.wordpress.org/training/handbook/training-team-how-to-guides/content-localization/translating-content/)
    - [https://make.wordpress.org/training/handbook/training-team-how-to-guides/content-localization/high-priority-content-to-translate/](https://make.wordpress.org/training/handbook/training-team-how-to-guides/content-localization/high-priority-content-to-translate/)
 * 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.
 * Also, we started working on creating thumbnails for all lessons that need them.
   You’re very welcome to join us and contribute to this important and creative 
   project. Here’s the issue with details on how to work on the remaining thumbnails:
    - [Create Thumbnails for Learn WordPress Lessons #3428](https://github.com/WordPress/Learn/issues/3428)
 * We currently have **465** open issues. It would be great to get support in reviewing
   and reducing their number. You can help by:
    - Going through issues one by one
    - Identifying outdated or irrelevant issues
    - Suggesting fixes or next steps
    - Adding comments where needed (before closing or updating)
 * Let’s work together to clean up and keep the repository well-organised
