Translation groups

Launchpad makes it easy for anyone to make or suggest translations for your project.

Translation groups are a convenient way to delegate responsibility for reviewing the translations that people suggest for your project.

Each translation group is an umbrella organisations — made up of teams and individuals — that have taken responsibility for a particular language.

When you choose a translation group, you're entrusting the review of your project's translations to its members. Each group has its own policies for standard vocabulary, how to handle plural forms and so on.

Unless your project is a member of an umbrella group that has its own translations group in Launchpad, or you have other specific needs, you should choose the Launchpad Translators group. (Read Launchpad Translators' policy >)

To choose an alternative group, browse the list of translation groups in Launchpad. If you are certain none of the existing groups is suitable, contact the Launchpad team.
