יונה בנדלאק (talkcontribsblock logall projects)

Hi, I request "translation admin" permissions. Like you can see in my contributions, i translate to Hebrew all pages need to be translated. I find some time some page link that was change or i add "Special:MyLanguage/" where it need. With translation admin permission all those changes will be add automaticlly to the message need to betranslated? I just want to update page not add another page (at lease for now). To be honest i don't have experience on it but i read about it and i see how translatable pages are. I translate on different wikimedia project for 2 years and more so i have experience about about Translate extension. - yona b (talk) 14:41, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

   Speedily Approved. Well suited for the task, with prior translation edits to prove it. Furthermore יונה בנדלאק has been an active Wikimedia user since 2008, and is currently administrator and checkuser on Hebrew Wikipedia, as well as admin on Wikidata. Moreover – and contrary to the administrator user access level – approval for translation administrator user access level does not require a formal poll or community agreement. –Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 22:21, 11 January 2017 (UTC).[reply]

I would like to request the translation administrator's right to help mark other translation pages of the project for translation and contribute with the translation, I have had the opportunity to test the translation tool in test wikis and I have also read the guide to prepare a page for translation.

For improving translatable help pages and categories. Requested "administrator" and "translation administrator" rights (both flags at once). As example, for improving translation markup in Wikispecies:Localization etc. I have admin rights on Meta-wiki and MediaWiki.org (mainly for these same goals), and also translation admin rights in Wikidata, Commons, Meta-wiki and MediaWiki.org. --Kaganer (talk) 09:32, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Stïnger (talkcontribsblock logall projects)

Hello. I've been working in translations in Wikispecies since a long time. I've started editing here since 2016 and I know how to translate pages in other languages such as spanish (my native language), italian, japanese (very basic to read and speak, and its my favorite language) portuguese or galician, languages that I dominate. I've already hold translation admin in test wikidata (with admin rights as well) so, I know how to use the tools and I would like to help working here. If there is a problem, tell me about it and I will improve. I will also look and reply new topics at the Translation admins' noticeboard. Thanks.

Since I've already got my work cut out for me as a Wikispecies bureaucrat, I don't really have the time needed to also help out with any extensive tasks related to actually translating the site. However being assigned to the Translation administrators user group would be very helpful in order to assist with general housekeeping such as reverting vandalism to translations, deleting duplicates of translated pages and so forth; especially since the majority of the current Translation administrators log in rather infrequently.

I would like to contribute as a translator in Wikiscpecies for Malay language because there was small numbers of active translator in Malay version or maybe none. Malay is my first languange and English the second. So no doubt to do so. CyberTroopers (talk) 14:19, 29 November 2018 (UTC) CyberTroopers (talk) 14:19, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  1.   Oppose. I assume the user has good intentions, but I'm afraid I have to vote no considering their contributions to Wikispecies currently total up to just three edits.Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 19:30, 3 December 2018 (UTC).[reply]
  2.   Oppose. I agree with Tommy, but would also like to encourage @CyberTroopers: to invest more time and work here, and renew an application after a descent output, where you can show us that you need the user right. Dan Koehl (talk) 00:34, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  3.   Oppose. I would also urge this candidate to contribute, particularly, if they wish, by adding data for Malayan taxa and even dealing with redlinked endemics. Andyboorman (talk) 13:56, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Path slopu (talkcontribsblock logall projects)

Hi greetings. I would like to request TA right in Wikispecies. Through this I can mark pages for translation without disturbing other TAs. I have TA right in metawiki, wikidata, etc . I would like to help in TA's noticeboard and Special:Pagetranslation. I think the current TAs are not very active right now. Thank you.-- Path slopu (talk) 11:36, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Sorry, but it looks like you're moving too fast given the number of wikis you've requested this on recently, and some of the pages you've marked for translation in the past have had some issues, eg [1], as well as edits like [2] where existing translations would be ignored, and stuff like [3], [4] and [5] - the need for <noinclude> tags around tvars means that tvars shouldn't be used as much for templates, since it makes it a lot more confusing for translators. While I appreciate your efforts to translate on multiple wikis, I think it might be a good idea to slow down a bit, sorry. Also, what do you mean by "metawiki, wikidata, etc."? Other than those two, you only have the rights on testwiki, which isn't a content wiki. --DannyS712 (talk) 11:53, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@DannyS712:Thank you so much for your comment. I apologise for my mistakes. I added <noinclude> tag around tvar because when we transclude these templates (userboxes) it also includes tvar markups. So I tried to fix this problem by using noinclude tags. Also, sorry for that etc. I withdrew it. Thank you.--Path slopu (talk) 16:38, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
And using noinclude works, but it makes it harder to translate in this case --DannyS712 (talk) 03:04, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I am an active translator on Wikispecies with about 1.200 edits here. Since I edit some translatable pages to add missing translate tags and tvars I would like to request translation admin rights to be able to mark them for translation again. Right now there are 12 pages that have to be marked for translation again, some of them since a few months, so I would like to help here as well. I am already familiar with the tools because I have the same rights on a few other projects. Thanks for considering my request. Ameisenigel (talk) 20:39, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
