Thank you User:Dan_arndt for translating the templates, User:Sivakosaran for translating the banner, and User:Nandanamihindu for translating the whole WLE landing page! Great work!
If anyone else likes to lend a hand, or verifying the translations, please do 🙂
We still have the UG-LK pages for translation as well: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Community_User_Group_Sri_Lanka
WLE will be launched for Sri Lanka on June 1st!

Thank you, Dan!
I will list areas requiring attention here in case anyone else would like to help. In order of importance:
1. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2019/CentralNoti...) To translate a sentence.
2. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2019/Upload_camp... To translate phrases in templates mentioned in points 2, 3, 5, 6, 7. Clicking on the template opens a page to easily add translations.
3. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2019_in_Sri_Lank... To translate all text in this page. Edit mode looks a bit confusing, but don't worry. Simply look for the LangSwitch template ({{LangSwitch|en= |si= |ta= }}) and fill in the Sinhala (si) or Tamil (ta) parameters. Don't worry about messing anything; I'm watching the page and will help in anything necessary :)
4. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Community_User_Group_Sri_Lanka Same as 3. This is the general usergroup landing page.
Sinhala translations are 0% at the moment in all four venues above, and there are a few outdated Tamil translations in #4.
To anyone reading this, please feel free to join in. Don't worry about messing/breaking anything. You translate, I'll fix. :)
Feel free to respond here, or message on my/usergroup talkpages for any clarification or comments.
Thanks again for any help that comes this way!
