Crowd sourcing Translation for D&I Workflow

Deliverables

Deliverable 1 : Identify and localize contents for translation written in the markdown format in a single repository on Github.This model will give the maintainers, reviewers and applicants a way to discuss which contents, documentation needs to be translated

Deliverable 2: Integrate the workflow using Crowdin, Crowdin is a translation and localization management platform that will integrate the processes of badging from the repository into deployable translations on github.

Note: The automation keeps the source content up to date for translating,

Deliverable 3: scale more repositories that will have multilingual documentation for a seamless user experience.

Result Expected

• Translation status and project activity

• Comments and Issues

• Multilingual source texts

Crowdin.md

Issues

• Testing and experimenting features on platform really challenging, user has to read the docs

• Before creating a project, you have to subscribe to any of the paid plans.

• Criteria for Opensource project wasn't achievable.

• Steep prices

I would start adding bullet points like this as you are going through your efforts.
