out to via an all-languages<br>translation notification too, but was hesitant to do so because it is<br>a really short text and a short term matter (nominations close August<br>15, so many translators might find this notification on their talk<br>page only after it has become obsolete), and I think we need to be a<br>bit careful with the new system so as not to have people feel spammed<br>and sign off. I'd be interested in opinions though whether any and all<br>translations should be sent through the notification system.<br><br><br>-- <br>Tilman Bayer<br>Senior Operations Analyst (Movement Communications)<br>Wikimedia Foundation<br>IRC (Freenode): HaeB<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Translators-l mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:Translators-l@lists.wikimedia.org" href="mailto:Translators-l@lists.wikimedia.org">Translators-l@lists.wikimedia.org</a><br><a href="https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/translators-l"
