Hello guys. I translated into Macedonian (mk) the updated updated Terms of use http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Terms_of_use/mk long ago, but it does not show it on Foundation Wiki when you click on the banner that displays the notice (the banner itself does show in the correct language, though). What is the problem there? This has been the case for at least a couple of weeks now.

Great! Just one tiny bit of suggestion - after you submit, there is no indication that the submission is successful and the page remains unchanged. A bit unfriendly there. Who should I tell about this? Thanks! Best regards, [[User:Bencmq]] / Benjamin Chen

Hello everybody,
The folks in the i18n team has made a great new tool for us to use, which is live on Meta right now: [[Special:TranslatorSignuphttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:TranslatorSignup]]. What it does is that it lets you be notified when there are new pages for translations. You sign up on that page, specifying what languages you are willing to translate into, how you would like to be notified (e-mail, Meta talk page or talk page on another wiki), and how often you would like to be notified. This will make it much easier to target people by language, so when we have something that only needs to be translated into, say, Romanian, only people who speak Romanian will get the notification about that.
The thing we need for it now is to populate the database with translators, so please *sign up*https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:TranslatorSignupand help us test it! (Feedback is, as always, very welcome.)
This also brings me to the next part – I have put up two "new" appeals for translations for the next fundraiser. They are not actually new, as they were both used in the previous fundraiser, but were put up a bit late, so they weren't very widely translated. The appeals are:
- GorillaWarfare's appealhttps://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Fundraising+2012%2FTranslation%2FGorillaWarfare+appeal&taction=translate –
this was the most widely translated one of the two, so it may already be done in your language. But if it is, it doesn't harm to proofread it once or twice. :-)
- Sengai's appealhttps://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Fundraising+2012%2FTranslation%2FSengai+appeal&taction=translate– this one was only requested for Indian languages last time, so it doesn't
have very many translations. Now it is being requested for all languages though, so your help with this is much appreciated.
Another new tool we have is the ability to group translatable pages together, just like the message groups in Translatewiki. So you can now see all fundraiser-related translations by going herehttps://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=agg-Fundraising_2012&taction=translate. You can see an overview of all translation requests at [[ Special:Translate https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Translate]] or at [[Translation requestshttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Translation_requests ]].
For now, live long and prosper. \V/
