Thanks a lot to everyone who made this possible: translations for
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Newsletter/2017/May
were started for *24* languages, and completed for so many of them, despite
the longer issue this time.
My apologies for not including an exciting piece of information, that you
may notice on Tech News anyway: "You can now use* ISBNs to automatically
generate citations* in the visual editor! This works on wikis that have
enabled Citoid!" [1] [2]
(Ok, exclamation marks are mine, but I really think they fit.) You can also
read more about it on the Wikimedia Blog. [3] It is amazing that I don't
even need to mention translations for the related label, because so many
look already done: again, amazing. [4]
Did we skip a page when delivering? Please add it to
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Newsletter or
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Newsletter/Wikis_with_VE to
get the next issue there.
Feedback and comments are always welcome, please use
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:VisualEditor/Newsletter for that.
Have a nice weekend!
Take care,

Hello everyone,
long time no see :)
I hope you'll be happy to hear that the first issue of the year of the
visual editor's (and other editing systems) newsletter is now open to
translations!
Current issue:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Newsletter/2017/May
Direct translation link:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=pa…
VisualEditor%2FNewsletter%2F2017%2FMay&action=page&filter=
(It allegedly features, among other things, rumours about a certain syntax
highlighting tool coming at some point...)
This will be delivered to the people who already signed up in the past
months (please subscribe! [1]) in addition to a list of relevant pages on
most WMF wikis [2]). I plan to send it on Friday (when it's EOD in Central
Europe).
Best,
Elitre (WMF)
