So translations for Arabic and Russian were just added, and I'd like to
thank my colleagues for their help with that. If anyone has feedback about
the quality of such translations (the ones that were added today), please
do email me offlist about this.
I'll point out that, because of the format in which I provided the content
to the translators, importing the translated content with proper formatting
wasn't going to work - well, this was my first time doing anything like
that, so I learned a lesson here. I am unable to add wiki markup on top of
the content I pasted, so I would be grateful if anyone able to review those
profiles in Arabic [1] went ahead to add the markup, using the English
source text as guidance.
Also, if there's any translation you wanted to complete, the time is now,
as voting starts just in a few hours.
Once again, thanks for your cooperation so far,
E.

As a heads-up:
while I'm confident that French and Spanish translations for candidates
profiles will be completed in time before voting starts,
I had to start a process to get paid translations for Russian and Arabic -
so that, when the next phase starts, all the candidates have uniform
coverage at least in those 4 languages that were identified as key for
several groups participating to ASBS this year.
This means that for candidates for which one or both those languages
weren't at 100%, these languages aren't *currently* available to avoid
duplicating efforts, but they will be early next week when I get the
content back from the agency.
If anyone feels like translating in a different language that's missing
from the language bar, please email me off list and I'll be happy to add it.
Thanks for your understanding and support so far,
E.

In these very final hours of sprint [1],
a friendly reminder to please ping me immediately on wiki if you happen
to stumble on
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T221119 - usually it
goes away just by remarking the source page for translation, FWIW.
Thanks!

Oook folks, here we go.
These are the last hours for Nominations in the ASBS process.
If you haven't looked at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Affiliate-selected_Board_seats/2019/Transla…
in the last couple of days - it sure looks different.
This is the homestretch now! [1]
Starting now and over the next few days - please see if there's any page
where you can still contribute.
You've already done wonders, help us wrap this up for good!
I wish you all a wonderful week ^_^
Grazie!
