FSF Translators Group
Thank you for being a part of the FSF Translations team! Translations are the easiest way to help spread the free software philosophy globally, and we always have work to do.
For our translations, we work in teams. One person can take on a translation, but we then ask for someone (or more people) at a near-native level of fluency to review it in order to guarantee the highest quality. Anyone can make mistakes, and more often than not, two people are better at catching them than one. You can, of course, also split up the work and review each other.
Any time a translation is finished and reviewed, send a message with the plaintext file attached to campaigns@fsf.org with the names of the translator and the reviewer in cc.
Visual Resources
Resources that are easy to share are important for the spread of the free software message. We have both videos and images you can work on. Check out the resources page.
The FSF site
Here is a list of important FSF pages that could use a translation:
- The Free Software Supporter
The supporter is sent out monthly, and has a French and Spanish active translation team, any other language would be a fantastic addition, but note it is a monthly activity, so a bit of a commitment. We want to offer any translation continuously. If excited about this, find a team member for your language, make sure that they are subscribed to the supporter list, and email campaigns@fsf.org.
And any of its subpages would be valuable to have in as many languages as possible, including those of the Defective by Design campaign site.
- The FSF Licensing page and any of its subpages
- Our donation and membership pages
