Hi Roxi!Thank you so much for translating the captions to Spanish!You can start a new srt file in Spanish on Commons.1. On the file page, look at the description box under the "Summary" section.2. You will see a template that says "Available close captioning", with a field to fill out, and a blue button that says "go".3. Write "es.srt" on the open field, click "go"4. Paste the translation of the subtitles with the time stamp.We are working to add these subtitles to Youtube, as well, but it takes longer on that platform, as it's not built for collaboration, and someone at WMF Communications team has to handle those.Let me know if you have any questions!Best,MaríaMaría Cruz \\ Communications and Outreach Coordinator, PC&L Team \\ Wikimedia Foundation, Inc.mcruz@wikimedia.org |Twitter: @marianarra_ On Mon, Aug 29, 2016 at 3:44 PM, Roxana Sordo <roxana.wiki@gmail.com> wrote:Hi everybody!I have just finished the CC Spanish translation for the first video.
