Translations Sitemaps

Overview

A translation sitemap allows volunteer translators to browse the list of WAI resources for which translations are welcome, and volunteer to translate it.

We currently have translations sitemaps.

If you are a new volunteer, please send us an e-mail to express your interest first.

How to use a translation sitemap

Browse the list

Resources are presented in two ways:

• Priorities only lists priority resources identified by the WAI team.
• Sitemap lists all WAI resources for which translations are welcome, grouped by top-level pages.

For each resource listed, you can see:

• The name and URL of the resource in English (in the first column “WAI resource”)
• The status of the translation (in the second column “Translation Status”)

  • Up-to-date + the title and URL of the translation.

  • Translation needs update + the title and URL of the translation. We welcome a volunteer translation update.

  • No translation. We welcome a volunteer translation.

Volunteer to translate a page or to update a translation

If a resource has not been translated in this language, or if a translation needs update, a link is displayed in the “Translation status” column. For example, “Volunteer to translate this page”.

Clicking on this link allows you to declare your intent, by pre-filling a GitHub issue in the wai-translations repository .

After submitting your intent, please always wait for a reply from WAI team. We will check that the file is not currently being translated by someone else, and that it is not about to be updated.

List of Translations Sitemaps

Translations sitemaps are generated for languages with an active volunteer community.
If you are an active volunteer and wish to use this feature, feel free to contact us at group-wai-translations@w3.org.

Languages are listed alphabetically by their English names.
