I'd like to help with marking pages for translation, because there're lots of pages at Special:PageTranslation that are ready to be marked for translation. I've some experience with translations and would use this right to mark my projects, for example WD:SourceMD, for translation, too. I really look forward to be helpful for Wikidata community this way. Thanks! --Wüstenspringmaus talk 18:39, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As a Wikimedia Deutschland staff member, I prepare the Wikidata Weekly summary, currently as an English-only newsletter. In response to community feedback expressing interest in translation, I'd like to request the necessary permissions to enable me to mark these pages for translation. Appreciate your assistance! --Mohammed Abdulai (WMDE) (talk) 11:06, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Contribution to Global Knowledge: Wikipedia's mission is to provide freely accessible, reliable and diverse information to people around the world. As a translation manager, I aim to contribute to this mission by providing access to quality information to users in different languages.
  • Building Cross-Cultural Bridges: By managing and enriching content in different languages, I want to help increase cross-cultural understanding and empathy. This strengthens Wikipedia as a unifying force as a global community.
  • Accessibility and Content Diversity: I aim to increase Wikipedia's content diversity and accessibility by supporting equal access to quality content for users of all languages. This helps create a more inclusive knowledge platform.
  • Quality and Accuracy: By ensuring the accuracy and quality of translations, I aim to strengthen Wikipedia's position as a trusted source of information. Accurate translations maintain the integrity of information and prevent misinformation.
  • Community Cooperation and Development: By encouraging cooperation and communication between communities in various languages, I aim to contribute to the development of the Wikipedia community and promote mutual understanding among community members.
  • Innovative Solutions: I plan to improve translation efficiency and effectiveness by finding innovative solutions to translation challenges and making the best use of translation technologies.

These reasons clearly demonstrate my interest in translation management and what I want to achieve in this position. It offers a vision of how I can contribute to Wikimedia's mission to make the global knowledge platform more accessible, accurate and diverse. --Quiklav (talk) 00:04, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to have the chance to collaborate with the internationalization of interesting Wikidata projects. Also, as an active wikimedian and community organizer, I would like to have the ability to create projects and tool pages ready for international collaboration. Thanks! --Señoritaleona (talk) 23:10, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose No experience with translation markup, usecase unclear --Ameisenigel (talk) 16:24, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I have experience with translation itself (in other wikis), so I'm familiar with the markup and I have a general understanding of how the translation flow works. But the only way of gaining markup experience is by having the required permissions. I'm a reliable and long-term editor and organizer, and I consider myself very careful and cautious, and a person with good tech skills. Señoritaleona (talk) 21:55, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Señoritaleona, you raise a good point about gaining experience - without taking a position on this request at the moment, would you like translation admin rights on testwiki? That would allow you to demonstrate familiarity with translation markup --DannyS712 (talk) 00:40, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like the translation administrator permission. My current project is to turn Wikidata:Lexicographical data/Documentation/Languages/he into a translatable page, and translate it into Hebrew. If I understand correctly, it will be the first documentation page for lexemes in a particular language (see the full list) that will be translatable, and hopefully not the last. However, I suspect that this page will have to go through a few more iterations before becoming stable, and I'd love not to chase other translation administrators every time I update it. That's not the only thing I do, or plan to do with translatable pages on Wikidata. I also maintain Wikidata:Glossary and some other translatable pages here occasionally, and translate templates. I'm experienced with translation administration on translatewiki, Meta, Wikifunctions, and MediaWiki.org, and I happen to be one of the developers of the Translate extension (see Special:Version), so I know the tech well. Thanks! --Amir E. Aharoni {{🌎🌍🌏}} talk 02:15, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
