Hi there fellow contributors,
I wanted to help translate the Django docs, but in transifex whenever I try to join the team of Hindi it shows no language exists like that.
So I wondered if you have to add me to the team.
I cannot request to be added to the team either! so I am asking in this forum.
Screenshot of that is attached here.
Hi,
I cannot explain the Transifex behavior, however if you give us your Transifex username, I may add you to the team. It also looks like a coordinator is missing, would you be interested to have that position?
And can you define the responsibilities of a coordinator?
At the minimum, you should handle team join requests. Then ideally, you should check before each major Django release that Django translations are at 100% (currently at 58%, so there is something to do there before translating the docs!). Once a language is at 100%, this means at most one hour every 8 months to keep them at this level.
Translating the docs is a huge task, so no requirement is put on teams or coordinators for that, it’s just bonus
I also see many things, which are translated with google translate but it is not accurate Hindi, So I will review the strings first
