Casey,
Have checked the new Welsh page below and I think it's all OK.
The new translations are already appearing on the landing page that you access from the 'donate' link on the sidebar: http://wikimediafoundation.org/w/index.php?title=WMFJA1/GB/cy&utm_source=do…
However, they have yet to appear when clicking on the fundraiser banner, which still has the 'Read now' button in English, and which lands here: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/WMFJA1/GB?utm_medium=sitenotice&utm_cam…
I assume that somebody somewhere needs to change the address of the landing page and publish the 'read now' translation in Wikimedia UK. But I have no idea who can do this! So we are almost there, but not quite!
Regards,
Eleri James

Thank you for your speedy reply, Eleri! I've published all of the
translations and translation changes that you gave me. Could you
please check it again and see if it looks okay?

I am having the same problem on Yiddish WP that Eleri is having with Welsh.
There is a Read Now button in English. And the link goes to a UKtesting page in English.
The appeal page was translated some time ago.
Alos the donation link in the sidebar has been changed not to link to the yi translation.

Dear fellow translators,
I am a Dutch expat and decided some time ago to translate articles and guide
lines in Wikimedia sites.
Many times one stumbles upon an article with a template that reads something
like 'doubt about neutrality' many times because it is about another culture
and/or language. Maybe it's wise to ask native speakers for intervention?

Okay, thanks! So, Eleri, I started the page here:
<http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/WMFJA1/GB/cy>, but there are a
few more things that I'll need. (I put the translation that I think
it'll be next to it.)

I disagree although I see your point. If we say "contribute 20 (insert currencies here)" and then don't take their currency it is a very bad experience. Trust me on this one.

Philippe -
I suggest you let other currencies be named in the appeals - it makes
"identification" easier: "This is meant for me!" And when contributing
people understand that all currencies can not be handled.
