Please add Uyghur translation group

Hi Gheyret,

Thanks for your interest in Ubuntu Translations.

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/KnowledgeBase/StartingTeam

I see there is an Uyghur team already at https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-uyghur, so you could perhaps adapt it to the points mentioned in that document.

Basically, it should be a matter of:

* Renaming the team to ubuntu-l10n-ug
* Making the subscription policy Moderated
* Adding translation guidelines
* Having a communication channel for the team (e.g. a mailing list)

But please do have a look at the link I've added above for the details.

If you need any help, or you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask, and we'll be happy to give you a hand.

Regards,
David.

Hi David,
Sorry for my bad English.

I am Gheyret T.Kenji , owner of the
Ubuntu Uyghur Translation Group
I usually use Launchpad for translation.I have some problemes recent days.

1. When, I open
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+lang/ug
there is a message like
"There is no team to manage Ubuntu <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu> translations
to Uyghur <https://translations.launchpad.net/+languages/ug>. To set one up,
please get in touch with Ubuntu Translations
Coordinators<https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-translations-coordinators>
."

2. When I open
https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/debian-installer/+pots/debian-installer/ug/+translate

there is no Input Box(translation box for input Uyghur).

>Renaming the team to ubuntu-l10n-ug
3. How do I change the existing "Ubuntu Uyghur Translation Group" to
ubuntu-l10n-ug
?

Best Regards,
Gheyret T.Kenji

Hi,
Please use this link: https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-uyghur/+edit , and change the text in "Name" field from "ubuntu-uyghur" to "ubuntu-l10n-ug". For mailing list, please send a mail to <email address hidden> to request for one.
What you see is due to your team hasn't been appointed to Uyghur language in Launchpad for Ubuntu, when you finished doing things listed above by David please ask for appointment here, after the appointment is done, you'll be able to translate.

Regards,
Aron Xu

No need to apologise, your English is very good. None of us in the
translation team has English as their mother tongue, so we understand
well how sometimes communicating in anoter language can be difficult.

That's due to the change of policy of the Ubuntu Translations project.
In order to improve the quality of translations of Ubuntu and to have a
clear point of contact for each language's translations, we only allow
translation teams in the ubuntu-translators group to translate Ubuntu.

The Uyghur team needs to be appointed in the ubuntu-translators group to
be able to further translate.

For a team to be appointed as responsible for a language, it has to
fulfill the requirements I was mentioning in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/KnowledgeBase/StartingTeam

The document is detailed, but the steps are quite easy and will help
ensuring that translation teams are run better.

You got the error message because you seem to have a mailing list, and
the mailing list needs to be either removed or migrated before renaming
the team.

I do not see a mailing list displayed at
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-uyghur though. I'll take care of opening a
request for an admin to remove the mailing list to allow you changing
the team name and I'll let you know.

Thanks!

Regards,
David.

I've opened a separate request for removing the existing mailing list, if there is any. This should allow you renaming the team.

Here it is: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations/+question/102485

Hi everyone,

My problem help me to rename team name from "Ubuntu Uyghur Translation Group" to
"ubuntu-l10n-ug".

Please help me to rename team name from "Ubuntu Uyghur Translation Group" to
"ubuntu-l10n-ug".

Hi Gheyret,

Could you try again to go to

  https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-uyghur/+edit

change the Name from 'ubuntu-uyghur' to 'ubuntu-l10n-ug', and press the 'Save' button?

Does that not allow you changing the team name? Do you still get an error message (and if so, which error message)?

Hi David,

Yes, I still cannot rename from 'ubuntu-uyghur' to 'ubuntu-l10n-ug'.
there is a screen shot:

Hi Gheyret,

Thanks for the screenshot. That helped clarifying the problem.

It seems that the team's mailing list in Launchpad was deleted, but not purged, which is why the team could not be renamed. This has been solved now, so you should be able to rename your team.

Please let us know if you can rename it now.

Thanks!

Hi David,

I renamed 'ubuntu-uyghur' to 'ubuntu-l10n-ug'.
Thank you very much.

Hi David,

I renamed 'ubuntu-uyghur' to 'ubuntu-l10n-ug'. and I created mailing list named <email address hidden> for the "Ubuntu Uyghur Translation Group". Now I am writing translation guidelines in Uyghur. I changed Subscription policy to Restricted Team.

But, I have some problems yet,
1. When I open https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+lang/ug
there is a message like
"There is no team to manage Ubuntu <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu> translations to Uyghur <https://translations.launchpad.net/+languages/ug>. To set one up, please get in touch with Ubuntu Translations Coordinators<https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-translations-coordinators>...."

2. I cannot start translation, because no input box appeared.

3. In the page https://translations.launchpad.net/+languages/ug have an error.
   The page says text direction of Uyghur is left to right, it is not correct. text dierction of Uyghur is right to left. can you correct the error?

Thanks a lot for taking care of that, and my apologies for it having
taken some days.

That's because we still haven't appointed the Uyghur team to be
responsible for Ubuntu translations

I'd like to make sure you've read:

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/KnowledgeBase/StartingTeam

and you've followed all the steps. Could you tell us a bit more about
these points in the wiki page? Have you had a chance to address those?

      * Team information
      * Team communication
      * Guidelines
      * Upstream collaboration
      * Coordinator

https://translations.launchpad.net/+languages/ug to show that the text
direction for Uyghur is Right To Left (RTL).
