Warning: This is a work in progress, drastic changes could happen. Do NOT take any of this for granted.

Here you can see more or less, the current project I'm working on. Shhh it's a secret to everyone!

Inactive localization teams

Current problem:
There are many editors that are left out from the Wiki Cap nominations due to the fact that they are the only ones that edit/translate articles on their language. Consequently, these users usually are not noticed as other editors that belongs from more active languages. This creates unfairness towards these editors from inactive localization teams.

Solution:
As a courtesy and better fairness towards localization teams with low activity or solo translators, they will be granted a special privilege; the privilege to nominate themselves. This is to ensure that, despite member activity, that solo translators or members of localization teams with low activity can have a chance at being nominated and evaluated. This only applies to translators that meet the following criteria:

  • User must have minimum 1 year of wiki activity.
  • User must be the only active translator or part of a localization team with no more than 2 other active members.
  • Users that have received a "No" verdict may re-nominate themselves after 6 months have passed.

What is an inactive localization team?

  • By definition, inactivity applies to the overall count of active translators for a given language, i.e. languages consisting of a single active translator, or localization teams with less than 3 other active translators.


~This is a work in progress, current/additional rules may be modified/added as per staff discussion.
