As I explained in my first message in August they will not promote it without the translation. 

One suggestion would be to have the languages the page is available in in brackets after the name of the country (and links if the page is in more than one language)

Hi John,

I understand the request. Given the timing and that everyone is busy organizing and the lack of response here, I don't expect that this will happen in the next 24 hours. Based on past years, I get the impression it takes you usually about a week to get in touch with UNESCO, so that would put us already well beyond the deadline. 

Hence my suggestion to just try with what we have. Having a landing page in Russian but then all links to non-Russian pages could also be argued to be somewhat misleading.

Hi

Sorry if I've not explained myself properly

I've asked and they want this page https://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/participate/ to be available in the 6 UN languages to be able promote it

It would promoted through the main UNESCO Twitter channel, U4H is not currently happening

Hi John,

I'm guessing that it's better to get the ball rolling at the UNESCO side to see if they want to promote either way. As always, I have included all the language versions in the overview, and that is what contains most of the information anyway. Or do you already have confirmation that they would be happy to push it out given a specific set of changes? 

Is Unite4Heritage actually still an active program btw? I see their twitter is inactive since 2018. 

Best,

OK, there are 7 days left of WLM, UNESCO is very unlikely to promote it without this translation happening, I'm unsure what else to do other to remind you that UNESCO has 3.1 million Twitter followers.

Like I said before, if people make the actual translation pages on Commons, and we could link to that, that would be the easiest to implement

(alternatively, the translated versions could be maintained onwiki, and linked from the official page)

I'm happy to give someone editor rights to make this happen, if they commit to maintaining the list in those languages :) This means for the next 10 days updating the list each 24h. You can use the English list as basis.

Thanks Nicolas

A French translation would be great, maybe we could share translations in this list and then a friendly wizard could copy them in? (Arabic is always an absolute pain to copy paste so maybe that needs to be given special care).

Great idea!

Is it easily doable technically for the site? If so, I can provide a translation in French.

Cheers, ~nicolas

Hi all

Just a note to say I can ask UNESCO again to promote WLM, however I got some pushback last year because the page to find your country is only available in English. 


It would make it much much more likely I can convince them again to promote it if this page could be available in French, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Russian also.
