We would love some more translation support if you have time.

Hello Loomio translation community!
It's been a while since you've heard from us - the team has been pretty small and quiet recently, but we've been delivering many new features and improvements in the Loomio software.
As of today things are in a reasonably stable place, and now is a good time for a translation update - if you are willing and have the time to spare.
We truely appreciate all the translation work gifted by this community - we're proud that Loomio continues to be open source and available in many languages, but we need to bring the translation coverage up to really deliver on this.
I hope we have your support, please reach out if there is anything I can do to help - particularly support in using Transifex.
Here is the latest snapshot of the client translations progress.
Many thanks!

Which ones @marcogiustini? I thought we'd found them all, happy to fix this problem.

@robertguthrie please give me your email, I'll send you the list of ones I've found. May you in the meantime update the italian translation from Transifex, because I translated lot of things?
Robert Guthrie Sun 3 Dec 2017 9:42PM
Thank you. We'll update with new translations today!

I saw that only few languages are available to be picked in the user profiles. It makes sense to show only the most translated languages but what is the translation percentage required for a new language to be made available in user profile?

Hi Zack,
I recently added all languages reaching 33% of completion on Transifex and being actively translated. This is quite arbitrary, I'd be glad to make a new PR with a better criteria!

I find 33% quite right. Maybe just let translators know so they can push translations at least to this percentage.

We've had so much translation support over the last few weeks - it's been wonderful! Thanks everyone!
I've just deployed the latest of the latest translations. What a big improvement.
French 100%
Spanish 100%
Chinese (Taiwan) 99%
Ukrainian 90%
Dutch (Netherlands) 89%
Italian 68%

@robertguthrie thanks for updating italian translations! I'll send to your email the untranslatable sentences

Hello, I just joined with the idea to help with the translation in Bulgarian. Yet, while browsing I read somwhere that such translation has been completed. However, nowhere in the above progress reports have I seen Bulgarian mentioned. Could anyone please advise whether translation in Bulgarian is needed or not? Thank you.

Hi Milena,
Sorry I missed your question! So far, Bulgarian (bg-BG) translations cover 2.74% of Loomio text strings, which is why it doesn't show in the language dropdown or in the progress reports. Feel free to start translating on https://www.transifex.com/rdbartlett/loomio-1/language/bg_BG/ and once the translations cover 33% of strings, they can be included in Loomio!

Hi @oyvinddahl thanks for joining the translation group. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or comments as you translate Loomio.

During translations I've seen that unfortunately there're some words not coded to be translated.
