Request to join Spanish (es) Team

Django Internals Internationalization
1

Hi,

I’m a native Spanish speaker with fluent English, and I’m interested in contributing to the Spanish translations of Django documentation.

I have already requested to join the Spanish language team on Transifex by clicking the “Join This Project” button and selecting Spanish, but I don’t yet have permission to contribute translations.

I regularly work with Django and would be happy to help translate missing or outdated strings.

Thank you very much.

Hi!

A quick search led me to similar requests ( No Transifex Reviewers for the Spanish translation team ).

I sent an email to the coordinator to check if he’s active in the project.

I’ll post his response as soon as I have it.

Yeah, it seems like nobody is reviewing.

I got accepted to the transifex team but there are 90 unreviwed translations, some with more than 3 years

maybe @claudep could help

Please note that unreviewed translations are still valid and used by the project, so that’s not an issue.

Note also that the documentation translation is stuck to the 5.2 version, due to this bug: Set Django 6 as the new django-docs-translations sources · Issue #2373 · django/djangoproject.com · GitHub (and noone seems to care currently)

Hey guys. Yeah, I try to approve all requests within 24hrs.

On the other hand, I’m currently the only one reviewing translated strings as I’ve not seen anyone constantly making an effort on the translation to offer this reviewer role.

Also, there are some words that need discussion around what’s the actual meaning in Spanish, like “commit”, “patch”, “tests”, etc. We need to talk about it because even some countries have special localization, Spanish is being used worlwide, so it’ll affect all countries where Spanish is the default language. And there are some cases too where the translated string doesn’t represent the actual meaning or it has been translated with tools that don’t get the actual context, so I don’t approve those too.

Pls, let me know if this role is something you’re interested of so we can discuss further steps.
