Wikifunctions:Translation administrators

Translation administrators are users who hold the translationadmin user group. There are currently 10 translation administrators on Wikifunctions.

Overview

Translation administrators are users who set up pages using the translation extension and mark them for translation so that pages can be translated by users into any supported language.

How to request

Main page: Wikifunctions:Requests for user groups

Users may apply for translation adminship at Wikifunctions:Requests for user groups#Translation administrator.

Requirements

To successfully request the translation administrator user group on Wikifunctions, a user must complete the following:

Create a new discussion section requesting the user group at Wikifunctions:Requests for user groups#Translation administrator.
Allow 1 week for discussion.
The candidate must obtain at least 2/3 (two thirds) support.
Present a sample edit to demonstrate your practical experience with the translation syntax

Granting

Once a request is closed as successful, a request should be posted at Steward requests/Permissions#Miscellaneous requests. A steward will then assign the permission, if the granted group is temporary, the permission will be automatically removed without notice after the term expires. If this group term needs to be extended, start a new discussion in advance of expiration.

Administrators do not need to undergo another discussion to become translation administrators; they can self-grant the rights to their account if necessary. Temporary administrators are not allowed to self-grant permanent translation administrator rights.

Technical ability

The translationadmin user group gives users the technical ability to:

Change page language (pagelang)
Enable two-factor authentication (oathauth-enable)
Import offline translations (translate-import)
Manage message groups (translate-manage)
Mark versions of pages for translation (pagetranslation)
