Hi all, I'm glad to announce that the *monthly VisualEditor newsletter* was recently marked for translation for the first time: we had received several related community requests.
The issue for September and October [0] was delivered in 10 languages to the editors who signed up in the past months (please join them! [1]) in addition to a list of relevant pages which includes at a minimum all the Wikipedias where VisualEditor is already the default editor [2]. Future time windows for translations will be announced through the Translators mailing list [3], or personally to volunteers who want to help with this task; please contact me off-list to indicate your availability. *The November issue is now open for translations and will be delivered in a few days [4]. *
Special thanks to our awesome community of translators, to Guillaume for assisting me in setting up the whole mechanism, to Whatamidoing (WMF) for providing the contents and to James F. for reviewing them.
Best, Elitre (WMF) https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Elitre_(WMF) https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Engagement_(Product)
