Hi everyone!
Over the last months we've worked on a new frontpage for mediawiki.org
which will replace the current https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki
soon (probably next week).
You can find the new version at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki/Homepage_improvements_2018/Proposal
As this is the front page and highly visible, it would be great if you
could help translating it to your language!
I admit that I do not know the best practices for the translation process.
Can the proposal page already be marked for translation and can I then
easily "move" these translations, once I copy (not: move) the content
of the English version into https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki ?
Or does translation have to wait until the proposal has been moved?
In any case, thanks in advance for your help!

Hello, all,
I have a short message that I need translated into these languages:
Arabic, Catalan, Dutch, English, French, German, Hungarian, Norwegian,
Spanish, Polish, and Thai
The message is at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_consultation_2019/Communication/R…
A "strict" translation is NOT needed. I've tried to make the message
simple to translate, but it might seem a bit boring now. Please feel free
to adjust the wording if there is a more natural or friendly way to say
this in your language.
These will (we hope) be hand-delivered to some newer editors, wiki by wiki,
shortly after each translation is done. The links will be changed
individually to links that are relevant for the local community.
And, finally, we haven't heard from many translators in this consultation!
Translators' needs are unique and important. My own teammates would say
that the key to the whole movement, and I can't disagree with them. :-D
So please also click that link and tell the talk-page consultation team:
What do YOU need to be able to communicate on the wikis?

The 6th Growth team newsletter is ready for translation.
https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Gr…
Here is the text: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Growth/Newsletters/06
Distribution is scheduled for Monday afternoon UTC or Tuesday morning UTC.
A bit on context: previously, the Growth team newsletter was in English
only, and a different newsletter was sent to communities that were testing
the prototypes, in their respective languages. We have decided to change
this process, in order to give access to information to more communities.
Thank you for your help!
