Ready for early translation: Tech News #06 (2015)
by Guillaume Paumier 02 Feb '15

02 Feb '15

Greetings, The latest tech newsletter is ready for early translation: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/News/2015/06 Direct translation link: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-T… Two weeks ago, I moved some of the items to this week's newsletter due to the pause in software changes. I also moved the existing translations, so you'll see that some languages already have translations. Please check that they were moved properly. I'm planning to send the newsletter on Monday afternoon (UTC), i.e. Monday morning PST. The existing translations will be posted on the wikis in that language. There may be a few more edits by tomorrow (Friday), but the existing content should generally remain fairly stable. I'll let you know tomorrow in any case. Let me know if you have any questions, comments or concerns. As always, I appreciate your help and feedback. Thanks! -- Guillaume Paumier

Dear Chinese translators, The Wikimedia Foundation will be running a fundraising campaign in China and Hong Kong this year. In order to prepare for the campaign, we would highly appreciate your help to translate banner messages from English to simplified Chinese (for mainland China) and traditional Chinese (for Hong Kong). To translate into *simplified Chinese*, please click on the following link. <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&action=trans…> For *traditional Chinese*, please click this link. <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&action=trans…> If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. A warm THANK YOU for your help. Kind regards, Jessica Robell Global Campaign Manager Wikimedia Foundation

Help us translate banner messages for our 2015 fundraising campaigns
by Jessica Robell 26 Jan '15

26 Jan '15

Dear translators, Happy new year! I wish you all a happy, healthy and prosperous 2015. With a new year comes a new international fundraising campaign. We would highly appreciate your help to translate fundraising messages into your language(s). A large part of the messages on this page is similar to the one we used in 2014. Some translations can therefore be copied and pasted from the 2014 translations <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&action=trans…> . *To start translating, click on this link <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&action=trans…> and choose your language in the scroll down menu. * You can find a full list of texts that need translating on the Fundraising translation hub <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising/Translation>. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out. Thank you once again for your valuable support. Best wishes for the new year, Jessica Robell Global Campaign Manager Wikimedia Foundation

We'd certainly love to know that as well (although the video cost only few thousands euro).

Peace prevails. ;-) Nemo
